Weekend
I had a lovely weekend. On Saturday night I went to a friend Andy’s house. He was in the midst of making soup, so we left the soup to simmer and went shopping. I needed a USB hub so I wouldn’t have to crawl under my desk every time I used my pen drive, so it was off to Best Buy. With Andy’s help I was able to find just what I was looking for. Next we stopped at Kohl’s so I could look at winter coats.
I had a winter coat, but I didn’t really like it. the color, a light blue, was pretty enough. And it kept me nice and warm. But it was too poofy on me, and it attracked dirt like you wouldn’t believe. So, this summer, in the process of moving I sent it off to Goodwill. And now it’s starting to get cold. And, like I said, I need a new winter coat. I was very surprised to find one. I’m hoping that I’ll get it for my birthday (the begining of Nov.).
After Kohl’s we wne t back to Andy’s and had the wonderful soup he had made. just thinking about it now makes my mouth water. :)
On Sunday, Andy and I watched the Packers Detriot game. And I’m happy to say the Pack won! Yay! It’s always nice when the home team wins. We also listened to some This American Life programs. It’s such a great show. I wish I was able to catch it on a regular basis. In fact I wish I lived in a city that had an Ideas Newwork station and not just the Classical Music station. Don’t get me wrong, I love classical music. It’s just that I miss listening to the Ideas Newwork. I grew up listening to it.
And that was my weekend. It was quite lovely and relaxing. Which was good for me. I spent last week obsessing over my Student Teaching packet, which I turned in today. *deep sigh* I’m glad it’s in, now I don’t have to worry about it. I can move one to worring about homework, and the fact that I’ll be student teaching next semester. . . .
You would think that after 7 years as an undergrad I would be ready to move on with my life. And in many ways I am. But at the same time, I’m realizing that I have really been putting off this whole growing up thing. Being in college for so long has allowed me to aviod the “real world.” And now it’s here all of a sudden. And I just have to take a deep breath and jump in. . . Even though I feel like I’m falling apart at times. I’m just lucky that I have such a wonderful family and such wonderful friends to support me.
