So..the countdown has really begun.  In exactly 7 days I WILL BE AT HOMEEEE! I am still excited, can't you tell?!

However in the amount of time that I have left before next Saturday morning, there is so much going on.  To name a few things, I have to come up with a lesson plan.  The first one that I have ever written.  The hard part: It has to incorporate technology in some way.  Eeeeek.  For elementary aged kids?!  I'm having trouble coming up with ideas.  If you have any, please feel free to let me know! I have a Math exam next Friday..let's not even get into that whole mess.  It's still stands for Mental Abuse To Humans...just sayin'.  I have an issues paper to do for Children's Literature, and I haven't even looked at what I am supposed to do for that paper..I guess I should get on that..ooops.  Bad student alert.  And finally, the football game on Friday night!  It's going to be a chilly one..it might even be time to break out the winter coat.  I am sure that there is much more to do, however I would get bored of reading about those things so I'll spare you the details.

Ames, Iowa got our first snow of the year!  At first it was just a mixture of rain and snow, and then it stopped.  However I was pleasantly surprised when I woke up the next morning and looked out the window to an accumulation! I love snow..it's pretty..but that just means that it is going to get colder still!  This winter is going to be an interesting one, especially walking around this huge campus.

What else can I update you all on?!  Oh, at semester I will finally be moving back up to the third floor! Another exciting thing to look forward to.  I can't wait to be able to sleep through the night and not have to deal with the pleathera (spelling?!) of random men in room.  Long story short, I will be a much happier person.  And that's all we're going to say on this subject.

Last weekend the girls and I went home to Kaci's house for a girls night!  On Friday night we went to her sister's play, The Sound of Music.  It was a very good show!  That night we also rented the movie Water for Elephants.  Excellent movie!  You should all rent it.  We woke up the next morning, Saturday, had breakfast and made our way back to Ames for the football game!  We won too!  They are back on track so let's hope they can do it again next Friday night!  Then had dinner and took naps..and had a chill Saturday night.  I love my friends! :)

I took a break from writing and called my Momma!  Can't wait to see her next week!  Well, I guess it's time to put some sweats on, brave the cold, and grab some brunch! I'm hungry! Oh, and I will leave you with some pictures of this week!
