December!

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving weekend?

Wow, the term is going by really fast, I can't believe it's December already! As I write this it's absolutely dumping snow out my window, the lake is frozen, and the sun is getting ready to set (at 3:30pm). I don't think it got above zero degrees this whole weekend... Celsius. But still.

It truly is winter now. It hasn't snowed too much, but the whole town is covered in frost and ice. It's really difficult to walk around without slipping and falling. Going outside without gloves, a hat and long underwear is unimaginable. It will be a shock to my system, albeit a happy one, when I arrive in Pasadena and its 80 degree weather in two weeks time.

I haven't made a post in a while because I've recently been really busy with school work. There was hardly any work the first few months, we just had to keep up with reading. But now that the term is ending, I have big term papers for most of my classes. I have four 2000 word papers to do before winter break. Luckily though, I've picked some pretty interesting topics for the papers, so I'm having fun. 'Fun' may be an exaggeration actually, but it's really not too bad. I've already written two of the four, so I'm doing well.

Well, I better get back to those last two papers so I can enjoy the last few weeks of term. Lots of fun events coming up, like a Christmas Formal and the Winter Ball. It's really starting to feel like Christmas too, with the whole town turning into a winter wonderland.

I'll be back soon with pictures.
