Thanksgiving break

I found Thanksgiving break to be very enjoyable.  It provided a time to relax and recharge after a couple of difficult weeks.  It seemed for some of my classes professors wanted to get some things out of the way before the final few weeks of school, which was probably a good idea in retrospect.  Besides the all-nighters I had to endure sometimes, it wasn’t all that bad because I expected it. 

Over break, I was both lazy and productive at the same time.  To my surprise, I actually did work on some schoolwork.  But then I slept until one at least every day besides for Thanksgiving, when I slept until about noon.  I have a feeling I’m not the only returning student who did this though. 

I was also able to spend some time with my family and friends from back home and my favorite football team (the Eagles) won on Thanksgiving day which made it all the better.   In addition, I may have actually finalized my spring break plans (see previous blog, “vacations on breaks”) which is especially exciting for me considered I’ve never traveled on spring break. 

The one downside, it went unbelievably fast.  It’s hard for me to believe how fast it went.  However, when I look at the date and realize that there is only a little more than two weeks left in the semester, I’m left wondering where on earth this semester went, let alone the fact I’ve posted 40 blogs counting this one.  Thanksgiving break, along with this semester, have gone incredibly fast.
