I can has Thanksgiving?

Okay, so...I figured I might as well tell all about my Thanksgiving break. Because I'm in school and that's important and stuff. Yeah.

I've never gone home for Thanksgiving break. My freshman year I stayed on campus. I was determined to get some homework done.

Yeah.

The next two years I went to a friend's house about 30-40ish minutes away. That was really nice, 'cause I could wear jeans and watch movies and stay up late and they wouldn't mind (mostly) and I also got to spend time with friends and play video games and decorate the Christmas tree.

I also got no work done.

This year I stayed on campus again, because symmetrical is (allegedly) beautiful. I was determined to get some homework done.

And guess what??

This time, I was successful.

See, I have this independent learning course, American lit, that mustmustmust be finished by April if I want to graduate in May. I started it in AUGUST. Oops. So I need to finish it over breaks. I still have over half of it left for Christmas, but I'm pretty sure I can get it done within a week or so. My parents are probably going to enforce this.

But anyway, my break.

(Sorry if this is not very visible. I try...)

Yup. That just the basic overview. If you absolutely MUST know EXACTLY what I did over break, hit me up.

But I did get some homework done while still being every so slightly wonderfully lazy. This is a very good thing. It's very rewarding to sleep till noon when you've gotten stuff done.

Got Mah Fix

I finally ventured to Fix Coffee, a supercute coffee shop about 1.5 miles from Bob Jones campus (and about a 30 minutes walk). The barista's name was Rosie (which was pretty cool) and I got a Pumpkin Spice Latte. The result? Two hours later...

(This is one reason I rarely go get coffee.)

That is all. ^_^

One must always begin with an introduction.

I was inspired to start this blog after I re-read Hyperbole and a Half*. Allie tells stories in the most interesting ways and I thought, "Hey...I can do that!" And what better place to begin than at college? I shall begin by introducing myself. (This will be the only boring post. I hope.) This is me:

My name is Rose, like the flower. I'm twenty (and five months) and I'm a senior. I go to Bob Jones University, so this is what I look like right now:

My major is Humanities, but before that I was Creative Writing and before even THAT I was Cinema and Video Production. This is what Humanities is:

It starts out very broad with required English, history, language, science, psychology, Bible, art introduction and music introduction classes. Then you can pick pretty much whatever the heck you want to take. It's pretty cool. I just wish I had switched to this sooner 'cause then I could take all the extra classes I wanted to take. And also, I wouldn't have this problem:

...Yeah. I have no idea. Well, more like multiple ideas. Like manymanymany.

*Although I love her blog very much, Allie does use some rather offensive language at times. She also occasionally mentions topics that could be offensive. So be forewarned. Otherwise, enjoy! :)
