I am 100% astounded that it is November already. November means Thanksgiving and all sort of other things I really enjoy such as a trip to Chicago on Black Friday (yes, I’m one of those). Side note: The Captain and I go to Chicago every year. We skipped one year and got into a fender-bender in the movie theater parking lot instead. I told Captain it wouldn’t have happened if we’d just gone to the city.
I used to wait until Thanksgiving day to start listening to Christmas music. Last year, I was so stressed throughout November that I let myself start playing “the good stuff” around the middle of the month. This year, I’m waiting until November 15th to start my Christmas music listening (yes, I’m one of those, too).
The semester keeps plugging on whether I’m ready or not. From here on out, I have about 1 exam per week until finals. My finals schedule isn’t bad aside from the fact that my last exam is on 12/23. I’m going to have to finish the exam, get home, pack up the cats, and head to my parents’ house than night and pray that the snow isn’t too bad. Well, I’m really getting ahead of myself worrying about that.
To make a long story short, the semester is more than half over, things seem to be going well aside from the fact that I can’t make myself good at epidemiology. Oh well, I’m doing quite well in all of my other classes. I’m just going to keep swimming and hope that the rest of the semester runs as smoothly as the beginning did.
