That Time of the Year!

So I know it has been a long time since I have blogged and I feel super guilty, but I have lots to talk about. First is setting up for the Textile Alumni Tailgate. This was fun because I got to blow up tons of balloons with a helium machine. It turned about to be somewhat humorous because the wind was so strong and the balloons were flying everywhere. I did not get to stay for the tailgate due to another obligation, but I heard it was really fun. Then, this past weekend I had my first performance with the NC State Modern Dance Company. It went well and there actually was a quite a turn out, much more than I was expecting. I had a great experience and all my hard work was worth it.

Now it is crunch time. All of my papers and tests are all happening at once. I had a math tests today and I find that class pretty simple. The professor prepares you well for the test and I feel confident while taking them. I have done well in math because of my professor's style of teaching. One tip, definitely make sure when you are signing up for classes to check grade distributions, that will help a lot. I have a friend taking the same math class and she has a horrible professor. The professor can make a huge difference when it comes to your final grade. Anyways, I am super stressed right now and ready for the semester to be over. I turned in my last literature paper today too and that was a big relief. Now I have one test left and then I get to go home for Thanksgiving and start studying for exams. WOOHOO! Sorry for my dull mood in this post, but as you know......it's that time of year!

Almost Over!

This semester has seemed to fly by. I feel like I just got here and Thanksgiving break is right around the corner. There are lots of crazy events going on right now. First of all, it seems that every class I am taking either has a paper due or a test this week. It is incredibly stressful. On top of that I have my dance performance coming up next week. I also hvae a luncheon with the board of the North Carolina Textile Foundation and I am attending the Textile Alumni Tailgate at the Wake Forest Game. As you can see, this week is going to be interesting. Pray for me! I will write later this week and let tyou know how everything went.
