I can't believe the semester's still not over. I've ceased to care about all things academic. This finals period makes me soooo glad I'm taking a year or two off before graduate school. I need a break badly.
Things have not been exceptionally exciting around here, except that I worked at a Habitat for Humanity house today. I hadn't worked with them in a while, and I always enjoy it, but today was a special treat because the couple getting the house was there to work with us. They just found out the house will be theirs yesterday and they're so excited! It was so great to hear them plan out paint colors and talk about how wonderful it will be to have space for their four children finally. I love being a part of that kind of happiness - the kind that people experience when they begin to understand success is within their grasp.
Finals week is next week and I do love the opportunities it affords me to just hang out in the off-study hours. I also love the cookies that the alumni ladies bake for us in care packages. I do not love Christmas shopping, but it will be a neccessary evil this week.
And, sadly, that's all I've got for you.
