The end of the semester is almost upon us. It’s a time of family get-togethers, final tests, and a lot of studying. Naturally, when all is said and done, students need rest. Thankfully, the university gives 3 days of the school week, and 4 days of the work week, for Thanksgiving and an entire month for Christmas. I may not have a lot that I’m going to do, but some of it is things that I’ve been missing since I moved to Norman campus.
Thanksgiving break is going to go by really quickly. The first day I get home, I’m going to be just talking with family, petting the cats, and other normal things. I can take the first day pretty slowly. Thursday will be filled with a lot of good food, so I can’t say no to that. Friday will probably be getting ready to come back and packing everything up, and Saturday I’ll return. It will be a nice morale boost going into dead week and finals.
Christmas break is when things get interesting. There’s more time, meaning more available activities. We have relatives to have Christmas with in Springfield, Missouri. There are events to visit around town. My older brother and our aunt come to visit from Ada. Christmas events in some games, and other things to spend the holidays with. Family is definitely a good way to spend a break.
At this point, the only thing left is to prepare for finals and any leftover assignments. Let’s end this semester off like we began- doing our best.
