Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Happy Holidays everyone! I know Christmas was yesterday but its never too late to spread a little holiday cheer. I have had a busy time whilst being at home since I am not here for long - as I leave tonight! It is a crazy whirlwind of stuff ... but lately most of life is looking good. Its always difficult to see the good when there is bad, but try to let the good count for more than the bad. Because in the end, that's what should really matter.

Plus, with the new year just around the corner it is a good time to be thinking of changes and changing. So out with the bad and the terrible and in with the good and glorious.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and best wishes in the new year.

you know you love me

Thought It was time for an Update

So I had a nice little week of "pure hell" last week. A final lecture exam on Tuesday followed by a midterm on Thursday as well as a formal lab due and a final lab exam on Friday.

All of this was followed by my own pity party on Friday with a lovely little bottle of wine.

Little Black Dress Chardonnay


Then finished off the week with FSTS ... the final initiation for the pledges (now new sisters) of Iota Beta Chi

I have booked my flight home for the holidays. :D

Just a note: If Chardonnay isn't your cup of tea, Little Black Dress also makes an amazing pinot grigio. I have personally never had the merlot ... mainly because as those of you who know me know - I do NOT drink red wine! 


PS. Drinking wine is does NOT count as to real "drinking" of alchol - I KNOW this because my mom taught me so.

Loves,
S <3

Hey,
Sorry being home I figured I would have more time to blog however, its been fairly busy I am working for the golf course so I have picked up a few shifts there with Christmas parties and the Santa Brunch and babysitting. Also, last Thursday I donated blood and went ill, well, I got pale and faint. I had to stay for an extra 45 mins so they could make sure I was ok... I am fine I am happy to report -- I still think everyone should donate blood, I will again.

I also, regret to say that this year I am totally off the ball, and have done absolutely NO Christmas shopping whatsoever, better get on that only 10 days left - WAIT! make that 9 since technically its well after midnight and thus the 16th but I have yet to go to bed. Usually I am done my shopping well before this point and feel very disorganized and have felt in a haze since I got home ...

Hope everyone is more prepared for the holiday season than myself! Here's a little video to help get you in the holiday spirit! Santa Baby is one of my favourite Christmas tunes:

Hope you enjoy it as well.

So, blogging is difficult with all my school work, however, I fear it may become worse in the winter semester with three full biology courses.
So to get everything up to date, my life is going fairly well, of course there is the stress of school and planning the philanthropy events for the sorority. Also, some fun news for a fundraising we are creating a calendar we had the photo shoot this past weekend, it was lots of fun. Good bonding time with my sisters.
School has been good for the most part I am doing well on my assignments and tests. My exams will be finished super early thus since family Christmas which is very exciting since I haven't been in attendance for three years. So I off to book a flight home this afternoon after class.
The only bad part is at the moment is that I am unemployed. I feel as though I have been searching for a job for EVER! Although, for the holidays I hope to pick up some banquet shifts once home. I'll keep you posted.
Anyways, I hope to do better to update.
xoxo,
