.... and were back :(

Well, fall break came and went way too fast! I was looking to work back in West Bend for the week, but my boss said that their really wasnt enough work for me to come back just for a week.

Sooooo for break, I didnt do much at all. I guess in the end I really did have a nice break from school. I've always been a late riser, so I didnt roll out of bed until 11:30 most mornings. Then, I basically just sat around all day and waited for my parents to get home from work, ate some dinner, and hung out with them. My best friend from back home was also around town, so I hung out with him a lot too. We watched a lot of sports, a bunch more movies, and just relaxed.  The week pretty much flew by.

But now I'm back to the grind. This last month and a half of classes is crucial, and I have to make sure to stay motivated. We are beginning to pick classes for next semester, which is my last semester as an undergrad! That is too weird. Because I feel like I was just a high school senior, looking for colleges.

I'm super nervous to see what lies ahead, but very excited. Ill keep you guys posted!

Fall break!

Well, its that time of the year again!!...

No, not talking about cold weather, allergies, fall colors...

Even though all of those are right around the corner, I'm talking about FALL BREAK!

Here in Ripon, we get a week off of school during the middle of our first semester. I'm not even 100% sure why we get an entire week off, but I will not complain. Other schools that have fall break usually get an extended weekend, but we get an entire week!

I dont even really have many plans during the week but lay around and watch a lot of TV. Typically the week before fall break is a very stressful one, and that is living up to its billing at the moment. Midterms, homework, quizzes, and papers are making this week rough. Two more days though!

I do have big plans for both weekends surrounding fall break. This weekend I am going to Madison with a bunch of buddies for the Wisconsin - Ohio St football game. We dont have tickets, just going there for the city wide celebration. Then, the following weekend, we have tickets to the Packer-Viking game on Sunday Night football! Cannot wait.

Hope everyone is doing well :)

Weekend.

Man, these weekends around here go by toooooooooooooo fast! It's weird how things work... the days in Ripon seem to go by so slow, but the weeks go pretty quick. Then, the weekends go even faster. I dont know if I like how fast senior year is going. Because then comes the real world. :/

This past weekend was a good one for me. Friday night, I didnt do much. Went and got dinner with a certain someone, then stayed in and hung out with some people for a while. Overall, it was a pretty low key night. I headed home for a bit Saturday, watched college football all day.. even witnessed a Wisconsin loss. Disappointing. My mom and I went and grabbed dinner and then I was off to Milwaukee for the night. When I was in high school, a good buddy of mine moved to North Carolina. We threw him a big going away bash the night before he moved, and everyone ended up in tears. Yeah, tears. But a close friend was moving to NC! Ha.

Anyways... so Saturday night he was back in town to visit. A ton of people from West Bend (hometown) made the trip down to Milwaukee, and celebrated my buddy being back. Overall, it was a great night, and I had a ton of fun. It was really good to see him, and everyone else for that matter.

Sunday, I came back home and watched the Packer game with my parents. Just like 99.7% of Wisconsin, we bleed green and gold. After the game, I headed back up to Ripon, watched a little more football, then studied allllll night. Huge test today in Economics of Professional Sports. I'm kinda nervous, but I should be fine.

Until next time...
