Today's Sunday - the last day of Thanksgiving break. Like every other break in my past, I told myself that I was going to finish all of my schoolwork early so I could enjoy the last few days off with pure freedom. And again, just like every other break, I didn't and now I must spend my Sunday doing biology readings and finishing two papers, one in english and one in spanish.

 

I can't complain, though. I enjoyed the time off. It is really nice to have variations in a schedule that is often so repetitive. Although the security of knowing what comes next and what is expected can help avoid forehead worry wrinkles, I am the kind of guy who is fidgety and enjoys spontaneity and diversity in my schedule. So even a slight, and expected variation such as Thanksgiving break is welcomed with open arms.

 

But tomorrow it is back to the regimented schedule, back to classes and back to Luther's campus. No need to complain or moan, it is fine. Especially because I can rest easy knowing that soon there will be a new change, which is winter break and a new semester.

 

Everyone take care out there. Avoid the winter blues and flu's and keep on keepin' on. And do me a favor - go outside.

 

Peace,

Collin
