About to Break

I haven't updated this post in awhile because things have been so busy at school and there hasn't been enough to say; just more of the same. I'd like to point out that I am currently failing the trifecta of New Year's Resolutions I made for myself: lose the rest of the weight, stress less, and make the Dean's List. My grades and my sanity are both slipping through my fingers (although my weight is holding steady and not moving in either direction.)

Thankfully though I am writing this on the eve of spring break, the glorious halfway point of the semester. Except, that it isn't. While it is week 7 of the 14 weeks of class, I am not nearly halfway through with the workload. I have written 3 of 9 papers, I've taken midterms in only 3 of my 5 classes. In Latin and Hist358, I actually have another test before the final as well.

I'm not trying to complain, my point is this: Spring break is only the calm before the storm.

I intend to spend the next 9 days sleeping, relaxing, hanging out with my boyfriend and my dogs, and doing absolutely no schoolwork. This is probably the least productive decision, but I need a break. I don't really get a vacation, exactly, since I'm just going to be here in Powhatan, but this week had better be glorious. If I'm lucky I might even get to ride a horse or two :)
