Dear Nobody,
I've been busy since I last talked to you. This past week hasn't been as stressful as the week before, but busy nonetheless.
After church on Sunday I met up with my family and some people from my home church to watch the movie "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day." It was very cute. After the movie, I went to my house and rested and played the ukulele some, until "Once Upon a Time" came on TV. (I love that show so much!) Then I came back to campus.
On Monday after my 10 o'clock class, I met with my mentor and had lunch with her at her house. She has an adorable little 2 year old girl who was running happily around us; she was adorable!
Tuesday was my first time voting! I was super excited and have been looking forward to it for a long time (thanks AP Government).

On Tuesday my roommate and I also decorated our Christmas tree. (Don't you dare say it's too early for Christmas! Besides, after Thanksgiving break we only have 2 weeks till we get off for Christmas. That's not nearly enough time to enjoy a tree.)
Wednesday was rainy, rainy, and rainy. Seriously, it didn't stop raining all day. The rain made having to walk across campus to get to class with only a tiny umbrella quite miserable. It was also cold. Cold and rainy are a great combination when I can stay at home and read and drink hot chocolate all day, not when I have to be out and about. The one bright side about the rain on Wednesday was getting to see all of the colorful umbrellas around campus.
On Wednesday my Mom decided to take me out to lunch. We went to Olive Garden, and I ate one of their tasty soups- perfect for a dreary day.
At the children's program I help with at my church on Wednesday nights, there were three new adorable little girls in my 1st and 2nd grade group. They were so precious. One of them came up and whispered to me "I've already asked Jesus into my heart." So adorable. They made my heart happy!
Thursday was the day that I got to sign up for classes for next semester. I can't believe that this semester is already over! It seems like I just moved to Not Hogwarts, and it's already just about time for finals... Wow...
Lunch on Thursday was awesome. Four of my friends and I grabbed Chick-fil-a and ate outside since the weather was so pleasant compared to Wednesday.
So on the way back from one of my classes, I spotted some dandelions by a sidewalk. (I guess that's another good thing about it being rainy all day Monday- dandelions sprouting up in November.) Since I am your average, sensible, down-to-earth college student, I walked over to them, picked one up, and proceeded to make a wish on it. Wouldn't you?

I also had Bible study on Thursday night. We discussed the importance of Scripture memory and prayer.
On Fridays I only have one class, which is always nice. After my class I watched "The Middle" in my room and did some homework. Then I went to Walmart to get some much needed groceries.
Later that evening, I went and saw Big Hero Six with my best friend. It was a very good movie, but I didn't expect it to be so sad! I cried three times, I think. I hate crying in movies too :(
After I got back, I watched "Hitch" with Roomie and our next door neighbors. Roomie and I hadn't seen it before, and our neighbors thought they should enlighten us. It was a fun time of fellowship, but the movie didn't get finished until one in the morning. (Yay for Netflix, the "red swirling circle of death," and bad wifi.)
Saturday I studied some and had lunch with a few of my friends. I also attended a birthday party on Saturday. After the party, I went to my parent's house. They were having a bonfire and s'mores for some youth group families from their church. It was really fun.

Well, that's the end of my week!
