Hitting the Breaks.

No, that's not a typo in the title for anyone itching to point it out to me with my grammarian tendencies. It's simply a play on words; puns are becoming increasingly more common coming from me lately due to some influence from a certain someone...*smiles*

Anyways, I never thought I'd make it through that semester. It was the best semester of college by far for many, many reasons, but it was also very trying and stressful. It sometimes was overwhelming, but thankfully there were people to help me until I found my way again. I am walking out of this semester feeling stronger than I have in a while. What's more is that I feel like a whole person again because I'm truly content with where I am at this point.

It's been really nice to sit back and relax during break, and to have a great Christmas. I've really been enjoying having a full 5 days without any work and without any homework...I've been free to stay up ridiculously late and sleep until noon, stay in pajamas all day, and watch a ridiculous amount of Gilmore Girls with Mom. It helps that there has been ridiculous fog over the past two days; it kind of deters you from going out more than what's truly necessary when you can't even see the end of your driveway. I've also gotten to see Valkyrie and Yes Man...I'd recommend waiting to rent the first, but I strongly suggest seeing the second...especially if you have a wonderful twin to go with, haha! I've also read the first two books in the Twilight series, and although they were decent, my life would still be complete if I didn't get to read the remainder of the series.

At the beginning of this break I realized just how worn out I was after this semester. My goal for next semester is still to have as much fun as possible and kick total butt in terms of classes, but I also need to work on taking care of myself better. Someday I'll master that...
