The Heisman Trophy

Tomorrow night is the presentation of the Heisman Trophy in college football, the most prestigious award given. This award is given to the best overall player in Division 1. Out of all five finalists this year, i dont really have a favorite. In years past i have always had a favorite and rooted for him during the presentation. Throughout the campus there has been a lot of talk about all this and who should win and how terrible someone is. Its the same stuff every year haha. O well, it should be a fun watch tomorrow night.....

Just Cant Wait To Be Done

As iv said before, finals are getting the best of me. Im really running low on steam here. Good thing the weekend is here so i can get some rest. I just cant wait to be done and not have to worry about all this. All of Christmas break is going to feel amazing not having to worry about any assignments or tests. I might not want to come back to Wartburg when break is over! But in all honesty, this break is greatly needed. College is defiantly a little harder than i thought.

Animal Intelligence?

In IS 101 today a group presented on the idea of animal intelligence and it made me think of the squirrels here on campus. I thought to myself, "are the squirrels here smarter than the average squirrel population?" I thought about this because when you walk by these little guys they dont even move. You could be a foot away and they wont be phased. Its amazing how they apparently have adapted to people being very close to them and they know we wont hurt them, or we will get in trouble. Dont get me wrong though, they arent dumb. They will still run away from you if you try to go after them. I would know, i have tried. Nifty little creatures those squirrels are...

Boiling Point

Ok so now that i am being bombed with things to do for finals and final presentations and so on, i have been reaching my limits. You could say that im reaching my boiling point. I am not used to all of this right now. I really just need to step back and relax for just one minute. Now that i think about it, this blog is helping me do that. Thank you blog. I just need to keep plugging away at this mountain of things to do. Im gonna keep my music loud and my sugar intake high. I need something to keep me awake in this time of need.

Holidays

One thing i have noticed since i have gotten to Wartburg is how fast the time flies. I lose track what day it is all the time. I looked at my calender today and it said December 5th!!! I couldn't believe it. Seriously, i dont know where the time goes. It seems like yesterday when football just got over with and now its almost time to start offseason workouts. I also thought about the big picture, half of my first year at Wartburg is almost over! Time is seriously flying away. Twenty days from now is Christmas! And i havent done any shopping yet, this is not good. Haha. I really need to get on that as well as study for all my finals. Busy busy busy this time of year. I cant wait to go home and see all my  family and friends. A break would be greatly appreciated right about now.

Finals Finals Finals

This week is the start of the most stressful time of the semester, finals. I expect to be up for a long time each and every day this week. I am going to do my best to do well in all my classes. All the pressure is beginning to mount, even my parents are giving me pressure to do well. Every college student knows how this feels and what i takes. It's up yourself to do well during this time of the year, no one else. Well i should get back to studying........
