Ho Ho Ho

Ah..the holiday spirit is approaching fast! I had my sociology exam last night which went well solely because the professor gave us example essay questions and indicated that she would choose two of them for the exam. That saved my ass because the multiple choice were out of this world. As in, she doesn’t choose her questions from her lecture points, she chooses them from the textbook! I find this frustrating as I’m typing a mile a minute on my laptop to capture everything she says and in the end, all you need to do is memorize the textbook (which is no easy feat!). Plus there are questions that are obscure like “According to a statistic regarding population, what was the 3rd largest minority?”. What the heck? Do I have to memorize every graph in the book? Argh. Anyhow, I’m hoping it went fine.

It’s the last day at work before the holidays and I’ve already received a few gifts. I got a great Guinness Beer gift set from my manager and I also got a Christmas Trivia game from Krista. There are 1200 questions so I think that in 120 years we can use the entire set if I have a Christmas party every year!

I have to pick up some more things tonight because I haven’t had that much time to shop and I will have to pack up the car tonight with things to keep me interested over the holidays. Up on the chopping block is bringing my guitar and recording equipment home, borrowing Eric’s Lord of the Rings set to watch and bringing some movies that I think Dad would be interested in. I also am going to get Dad to teach me how to play Crib again. Haven’t played in years!

Not looking forward to driving this weekend…rain all the way. I can only imagine what that will mean in this weather. Slush and lots of windshield washer. Guh.

Other than that, there isn’t TOO much lined up for the holidays which is fine by me. Christmas Eve at the church and a gathering afterwards, I think there is a night at the Legion tomorrow night, maybe there will be another wings and beer night at the Losiers and I will probably spend New Years Eve over at Vero’s.

I will try and update the blog but who knows? Holidays are kind of nice to let go of that sort of thing…

Here‘s some reading for you concerning Charlie Brown’s Christmas.
