Anti-studying behavior, I mean, Blogging!

Let me start with a picture. This picture really sums up my emotions towards finals. I may be considered emotionally labile (that's from studying the brain and disorders :)) but truly, it is NOT my favorite time of the year.



You know it's finals week when everyone walks around campus looking dead. Those walking towards the testing center, JSB, and 3320 WILK look stressed and pained while those walking away are near tears or kissing the ground :)

Today being the first day of finals I started my week with two finals. They went fabulously. I then sold back three text books. I got $90 and turned it right back in plus another $60 for two used books I will need next semester. Unfortunately, I can't return my textbooks for my major because my professors say it's time to start building our "professional libraries". Bleck.

I have four more finals left and I will be heading home at 7 am Friday morning. Not only will I be heading home, I will be heading to my NEW home in MI. My parents are already there and my dad has assured me that there will be PLENTY to open at Christmas--as long as we don't mind using box cutters!

Just a few more pictures:

Oh beautiful Utah, before the slippery snow and ice came ! It will be a miracle if I can make it through the winter without falling on campus! Keep your fingers crossed!


And last but not least, the perfect use of a reading day is of course going to Temple Square to look at the lights! They were beautiful, and although you can't see it, I'm standing in front of the most beautiful blue-green lights!

UGH I hated finals, nothing like finals to deflate the tiny bit of self esteem you have tried to work up all semester. College is hard! Anyway sorry I should be saying things like "its not that bad", or "buck up", but I have been there so I know it really is a terrible week. I didn't realize your family moved, oops guess they aren't getting my Christmas card anytime soon. Good luck and Merry Christmas!
