It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

Yes, I do understand it is still very close to the beginning of November, but with projects winding down, the end of the semester approaching, the snow beginning to fall, our Christmas tree project coming into full force, and the stores being filled full with Christmas decorations and bliss. As a result, my fake mini Christmas Tree made out of snowflakes has been attached to my wall, my presents have begun to be wrapped and purchased, Christmas music has been placed on my I pod and I feel fully prepared for the Christmas Season. Now I just have to get my Christmas Shopping and Present making complete. Good thing I have that planned for the weekend! I know It seems early but My first Christmas Celebration is this weekend, and my second in on November 30 so i can't really put it off. Oh well I enjoy it all.

Here is my Christmas Tree!!

I think I might add a few more small snowflakes to fill out my tree some more.

Also, (random bit of info) fifteen days from today a year ago, I was in New York. Some great memories came from that trip and really wishing I was going back.

The Begining of the Busy Season

Christmas is coming! It's been a while since I've blogged and now that seems like the next exciting event that is coming up. I've handed in my two big projects for the week (the first on time and quite well done,until of course I had to present it and then my lack of sleep and nervousness got the better of me; and the second I rushed to school only to get there at the beginning of my presentation time when were are supposed to be an 15 mins early, but thankfully they were running 45 mins behind) Leaving only one more to go. I'm feeling quite decent about by submissions especially since the second I got very positive initiative feed back from my teacher, something which I don't get from this particular one, I'm very much looking forward to seeing my marks. In other school related news! We are starting our holiday project, and Sam and I have chosen a very classy black tie theme for our little tree creation. Extremely excited to get started on these decorations but not looking forward to the staging project i must finish for that class before hand.

All in all, this homework is really getting me in the Christmas mood. That mood when you really want winter break to hurry up and just be here so that you get a break from school and you can start working on all those gifts you need to make, and buy and wrap. Oh the Holidays! How I love to deck the halls to the extreme and do crazy things... I'm currently considering making a hundred snowflakes and hanging them all from the roof. Good idea? I think so! If anyone wants to help out your welcome to cut me a few. and Erin Deelstra, you've been enlisted to help for sure next weekend!

Happy November, and to another crazy busy month!

P.S. anyone in favor of me remolding my blog? And for all those of you who have blogger, any idea how to personalize it more? I need something to fiddle with over Christmas holidays.
