White Christmas

Christmas came so fast this year! classes finished then boom...holiday time. I couldn't believe how it was 80 degrees the day before Christmas Eve then the next day a snow storm like I've never experienced! everything was covered in beautiful white snow :) it was so windy that the big flakes floated horizontally. such a happy surprise! this year I had an especially fun time with my family. we played catch phrase and clr after a delicious homemade lunch at Gramma's. I'm related to some really special people.

this morning was unbelievable. jake needed to be at the airport by 5am so I woke up around 3:30 and picked him up. I don't drive to the airport from here very often (it's usually from my parents' house) so we got lost. I've been getting nauseous lately because of some medicine...it kicked in like crazy this morning and we had to stop once on the way. we finally got him to to his gate and I was headed back home to study for a final this morning. unfortunately, I felt really sick and pulled over on the side of the highway. I'm so thankful I went back inside this morning and put on a coat! while I was getting sick on the side of the road my car ran out of gas...I called home and my amazing Dad came to the rescue. after shivering for about an hour, Dad arrived in his warm car and we went to fill up a gas can only to return and discover that my battery was dead. oh my goodness. my little drive to the airport lasted nearly 3 hours longer than I had planned.

on a happy note...human rights final went well! only one more to go...

crazy day

today I forgot to go to class. I never forget to go to class. it's history and I love it (not to mention the fact that today she passed out our review sheets!). it was the strangest feeling...and I didn't realize it until about 9 tonight. it's very possible I'm going crazy. I just thought, "gee I'm tired. I think I'll take a quick nap then go study." quick naps are never quick.

then the strangest thing happened outside the coffee shop...there was a dog in the road (a good dog--the black furry sweet kind that doesn't jump on you and knows how to walk on a leash). jake and I brought it to the door and its owner came outside. he was seriously crazy...offered to give the dog away only to change his mind a second later. it ended up being a sort of awful situation. he said some really mean things to jake and really creeped us out.

after a change in location, it was a very enjoyable night. after some good study time, we put some pizza in the oven and watched the latest episode of glee. I love hulu :)

Christmas is soon! so much to do, so little time...can't wait for no more school!
