Finals Are Here!

Hello Readers!

Finals are here! It has been an exhausting week preparing and taking finals. I was supposed to have a final for my War and Peace in 20th Century Europe class on Tuesday December 10th but that got moved to Tuesday December 17th due to the snowfall we experienced here in New Haven. Today I had my International Relations final. I think I did exceptionally well! Tomorrow I have my Question of God in the Modern World final. It is going to be tough but I believe I can get a decent grade. Monday is going to be, without a doubt, my toughest final I have to take. That is my Classical Political Theory class. It is an all essay final that has five parts to it. I think I am well prepared for it so I should be fine. 

With finals here, it means that it is almost winter break! I am excited to go home for a month and just relax and hang out. I will be working at my job in my town's recreation department. It is a good job that pays well. Soon enough it will be January and the spring semester will be starting! I cannot believe half of my junior year is almost over. It feels like yesterday I was just a freshman.   

I wish everyone a Happy Holiday and a wonderful New Year!

Crunch Time!

Hello Readers!

What a great weekend! This weekend was of course Thanksgiving weekend! Albertus Magnus College closed the residence halls on Wednesday night so all residents had to go home. I drove back to Long Island, NY and spent Thanksgiving with my wonderful family. I went to a Long Island Islander game on Saturday, in which they lost (that's no surprise) but it was a terrific game because it came down to the last few seconds of the game but of course Alex Ovechkin had to score the game winning goal to put the Islanders with another loss. 

I am very excited about the next two weeks of school. This is the last full week of classes and then finals begin. This week I have two papers and one presentation to do. It is time to get it done! I believe I have a final in almost every class so it is going to be a long and difficult week and a half to get through it all. In the end, it will be Christmas time and then I get a long month off from school!
