Wow, I can not believe that it is Thanksgiving Break already. It seems like this semester flew by soo fast. I am grateful for a couple of days to sit and relax, and just enjoy some me time. I have not had an official day off since Labor Day so I am enjoying a couple of days without any cares.
I am so glad that this semester is coming to a close. I am also glad that I have done pretty good in my classes. I expect to get all A's and B's. I think that is pretty good for my first semester back in school for quite some time. I have to say it took some getting used to and at times I was a little stressed by all of the work. But now I feel like I have adjusted to it and am back in the swing of studying.
So, I have not had a lot of time to update this blog for obvious reasons but I just wanted to write a short blog and fill everyone in on how the first semester went. I am looking forward to Christmas break. I may even be taking a trip to Frakenmuth for Christmas with my parents, and to Caro, Mi to see my sister and brother in law. Then Winter semester starts. That's a little exciting too because my best friend starts at Grand Valley this winter so he will be at the same school, which, I think will be pretty cool!
The most awesome part of fall semester is that I am probably going to get a B in Algebra. I am not that great at math so this really makes me happy. Especially since I flat out failed the first test in this class. I would say that I really turned things around in this class. Now I just hope that I do just as well next semester in Statistics. From what I have heard Statistics is supposed to be easier than Algebra. One can hope!
So I will end with this. None of this would have been possible without the help of my savior and friend Jesus. I prayed before each and every test for a good grade, and I believe that he helped me through each one. I am learning in this experience that I need to walk closer to him everyday, and to lean more heavily on him. Without him I am not capable of success, but with him I am capable of anything. This is a truth that I grasp at deeper levels all the time.
