At least I still have David Beckham...

I don’t even want to talk about sports right now. I’m considering quitting being a sports fan altogether. Oregon football died a quick and painful death when Dixon tore his ACL- we should be playing for the national title. Oakland traded not only Marco Scutaro, my favorite player on the team, but also Dan Haren, the best pitcher in the American League. Billy Beane has officially started rebuilding for Fremont- don’t even get me started on the scheduled move. Oregon basketball was doing well, until yesterday when they lost to an unranked Nebraska and the University of Portland women lost in the semi-finals to UCLA, again.
So I give up.

School is going well. We’re officially done with classes now, and finals start tomorrow. I’m not worried about any of them- my grades can’t really change. I am very excited that this is the last math test I’ll ever have to take! I’m a little disappointed that I don’t get to leave here until Saturday, but that’s just the way life works sometimes I guess. We got about 7 inches of fresh snow yesterday which has made campus look very wintery. It also feels very much like Christmastime. I already have all of my presents planned, and since I get home so close to Christmas, I’ll have to bring them home already wrapped. Since I’m only home for two weeks, I shouldn’t have an issue with room in my suitcase or anything.

Dance Ensemble is going well. We’ve finished the choreography on both of my dances, and I really like the way they turned out. Our outfits are pretty sweet- it’s nice to finally have a dance outfit that I like (because those brown velvet unitards from sophomore year were so hot).

My roommate and I decorated our room for the holidays and unintentionally, it all matches what we already have, so aside from the tree, we may leave it up for a while. We also rearranged our room so that it is more conducive to being able to watch tv/movies/whatever else we want to watch. I like it because it’s a lot different than the set up last year and it makes our room feel bigger.

Other than that, not a whole lot has been going on. It was nice to go home for Thanksgiving, and I’m excited to see Liz and Billy for New Years. I can’t believe I’m almost twenty, that certainly makes me feel kind of old. It’s not a very exciting birthday, but not having “teen” at the end makes it a little different.

I hope you’re having a great holiday season and you’re staying stress free… I can’t wait to see those of you on the WC in just about a week.

Love and miss-

It's the beginning of December and it's snowing for the first real time all year.

Jesus is loving on me a little more today.
