So, how's school?

Midterms already?! I cannot believe how quickly we have reached this point.  I remember looking at my calender in the beginning of the year and thinking how it was going to be SO LONG until my first "holiday." It seems like almost yesterday we were moving in and had nothing to do.  These last few weeks have flown by so quickly that it really scares me.

This makes me think that if this time in my life, which in the broad view of things, is not very busy, flew by this quickly, how fast are things going to go when I get really busy?  So, this made me wonder why I was going to go home this weekend? All I was going to do was visit people, never get rest, or get anything done.  I was home last weekend so I'm not very homesick and referring back to one of my first blogs, I said that I just didn't quite feel home at MC yet, but that feeling has changed quite a bit. I really like it here, so that's why I am staying over fall break-my first real "holiday." 

I'm using my time here this weekend while campus is pretty uneventful to be productive-to take time to be appreciative of everything.  Tomorrow I am going to volunteer at Habitat for Humanity and I'm really excited. I know technically that's not "relaxing", it's going to be hard work, but it's making good use of the free time that I have on my hands.  There is no homework, no tests to study for, nothing for rush, so why not use my time to help others.  I'm pretty excited about tomorrow, so I'll try to blog about it as soon as I get finished!
