Hello!
My roommate and I have rearranged out room AGAIN! We have now added a couch, bunked our beds and turned both of our desks... hers so that the couch no longer prevents her chair from leaning back and mine so that I have my own little nook! Brad brought up the couch this past weekend and it has made the room feel like home! As soon as I can I will add some pictures (for some reason blogger and my computer just don't get along when it comes to pictures!)
Anywho- I have 5 papers due in the next 3/4 weeks (with or without Thanksgiving break!) and at least 5 more tests! All this is before finals of course! Oh my!! lol...
I am traveling over the break and I can't wait! I am flying to Michigan to meet Brad's family and enjoy the holidays :D They plan on having turkey day at hunting camp which will be a totally new experience for me- but I am very excited to go! Brad's sister also wants to go skiing the day after turkey.. so that will also be a first for me! lol... I am just so excited that I can't focus on my school work! but I must get back to the grindstone and try and work on some of those papers! haha!

'tis the season?
So it is close to the holiday season- Halloween has passed, with lots of fun costumes and little ones running around the dorms for candy, and Thanksgiving is soon upon us. I have a lot to be thankful for and it would take forever to write them all out... but if you happen to be reading this- i am probably thankful for you :D lol... This Thanksgiving I will be spending it with the Ryes/Corey's in Michigan- and I can't wait!
However within a few short days of returning from Michigan (way up in the U.P.!) finals will be reigning their terror!! with two finals on Monday, three finals on Tuesday and then the last final on Thursday... my last final is for Yoga- and I'll have a day and a half to fully prepare for it! ha ha... why can't it be a class that i actually have to study for??
Anyway- the leaves have all changed (with brilliant views). I left on Sunday to doodle around town and within a few short hours all the leaves fell! The wind has an Arctic bite and I am dreading the cold! (I know your thinking- how is she going to MI? I am going to freeze there to!) But all is well, Bradley came for a visit this past weekend and fun was had by all- several different hiking trails and off-roading in the awesome blue truck with 4-wheel drive, drive-in movies, shopping, and sight-seeing :D

college... and life!
So college is a lot of fun! But alas-- there is also a lot of drama, petty high school drama... Come on people! We are in college :D
Anyway- My schedule load is full and mostly I am just studying away! lol... But I do have some time to enjoy the great out-of-doors sometimes! haha... Taking 17 hours in 7 classes is crazy! But alas I am enjoying my classes and all that I am learning and I look forward to after Graduation to when I will be able to use everything that I am learning!
I can't wait to come home every weekend- this is presenting an issue thou, with gas i mean- to surround myself with people that I know and love and who love me too :D I love walking around at home and just knowing people and what they enjoy and just for who they are. I have made several new friends at the local school (elementary- high school) and I can't wait to start a Niyelo group in the spring! It is a program that really helps mold youth into people that are comfortable with themselves, who know how to have a meaningful conversation and aren't going to bottle up all of their emotions. I will be able to teach and children how to do stuff in the great out-of-doors and help them with rope courses and ground course work! I am so excited and I can't wait to see how God is going to use this to impact others and me :D
