A Little Journalling

The semester is ending and I can't believe that I am saying this but, I am almost sad.  I'm going to miss the every day rush of going to the college, researching, and working on school projects.  Even the tedious exams are going to be missed.  The most interesting facet of this semester is my work at the radio station, which will be on respite for part of December and the bulk of January.  I really love dj'ing and learning from my experiences there.  I'm going to start taking some communcations courses at the college, and possibly pursue it.  Next semester, the radio station will be taking part in a benefit to raise money, improve the equipment, and go fully digital.  I never thought that I would enjoy scholastic pursuits so much when I decided to go back to college a few years ago.  Now I couldn't be more grateful for doing so.  I'm hoping that I won't feel the Winter blahs through the end of December and January, because I have to say that they are not my favorite times of year.  I'm going to catch up on some reading, get out a bit, and maybe learn to enjoy myself.  I've kind of lost the art of enjoying myself this year.

I finished some holiday shopping this year.  I wasn't really going to do that this year, but I looked at my father over lunch and I couldn't opt out of the season this year.  Feeling festive was really hard for me and not just because of the obvious things.  Having that type of motivation has always been a bit difficult for me.  The holidays have always come at a point when something awful happens or things have been very difficult.  That tends to change your outlook on that.  You start to have a crisis in that vain.   I'm muddling through and feeling alright about things for the most part.  My husband and I usually make a reservation for a nice hotel the night before so that we can enjoy a fun night away before the hectic day ahead.  I've already made those arrangements for us.  It's a little Yuletide gift from me.  Just a little romantic rendezvous for the two of us.
