Merry Christmas! (3 days ago...)

Christmas is the best day in the world. First off because the best person everrrrrr was born. Also because of the entire season. The cliche of kindness, gratitude, giving... Christmas trees, decorations... Elf with Will Ferrell. ;) And for collaboration videos to wish people a merry Christmas!! And though I'm 3 days late, I wanted to share a Christmas video with you! It's from most of us over at "The Revolve Tour (2 day conference)." We made our parts back at home and the Revolve editors in Texas put it together. Personally, I filmed my part outside of my dorm at ACC. :)

I'm happy to have new classes.I am looking forward to another wonderful year at the best college ever, new students! new professors and new books, "if I can afford the new ones", I love the smell of new books all crisps and clean!!!! I'm excited about a New Year, because its new beginnings a fresh start. My new year resolution is to win souls to Christ and not to be compromising and to have a wonderful year in school. I pray that we all start the New Year right. I hope everyone enjoys their New Years celebrations, but I also hope that you're being mindful and preparing yourself for the new semester as well.

Christmas Party With The Vice President

Finals are over!!

Tonight, SGA (student Government Association) went over to Mr. Huxford's house tonight for a Christmas party. It was awesome to sit around and relax (and get fed) by the Huxford's! What other school has amazing faculty and staff that invite the students over for free food? I love our friendly professors who care about us!

All 15 of us sang Christmas songs around the piano while Mrs. Vicki played. It was most definitely a memorable moment.

The campus is silent and glad to be on break! finally...

As much as I love to have breaks from school, this is my home. I am not so happy to leave it. :( We shall however, be back before we know it. Thank the Lord!!!!!

p.s. We love and appreciate all of the faculty and staff at ACC! Thank you all for being amazing!

It's Over

Choir is over for the semester and it's awesome. All I have to do is get through finals. Done. The End. Freedom.

Like William Wallace... but not really.

I am so excited to be done. But there are quite a few exams between me and freedom. I have two today, two tomorrow, and one on Wednesday. Then I am free.

I really want Christmas. Right now. It's cold, I'm happy (these are very much connected). The Christmas spirit is everywhere. It's great.

Now to just get through these exams....

Make it or Break it!

Finals week is approaching!

You can always tell when finals week is here simply from the stress that is filled in the air. There is a certain vibe I get as I walk around campus or eat in the cafeteria. People just seem different.

There is that feeling of confusion, stress, anxiety, etc. In college, finals can either make you or break you. At the end of each semester, ACC has a midnight breakfast. This is a chance for students to eat late at night (or early morning) while they do some final studying. The faculty, staff, and some students help prepare the meals and help serve food to the zombie like students. Some students attend this meal not to study, but because of the delirious atmosphere. They get a kick out of it! People are tired, stressed and want nothing more than to be done with the semester. The midnight breakfast is also another event that makes ACC seem more of like a family.

I LOVE IT!...but I don't appreciate finals. That is all for now.

Black Friday and sleeping 18 hours

So, I had the privilege of working Black Friday at GameStop.

We were open from midnight to midnight. And I worked midnight to 9am.

Surprisingly, I had a lot of fun. It was exhausting, though.

I had been up all day for Thanksgiving so I took a two hour nap and then went in to work. 9 hours, one venti mocha frappuccino and many funny stories later, I got off and went to pick up some jeans and then went to my other job.

So, at this point, I've been up for about a full day now (minus the nap), and I going in to work for a few more hours. (I have the wonderful privilege of having a job where I choose when I want to go in, however, it is janitorial so don't get too excited). You can imagine the work ethic that I showed.

So, since I wasn't doing anything, I went home, laid down, and slept. I slept for a total of 18 hours. This is something that I am quite proud of. The only reason that I didn't sleep for 18 hours straight was because my moronic friend decided to call me at midnight to ask the stupidest question. I was ticked. But I guess it would be smart to turn off my phone when I sleep...

So, now you know everything that happened on my break. All of the pointless details. You're welcome.
