Thanksgiving Break

Before Thanksgiving break we had a week of classes left plus that Monday and Tuesday Thanksgiving week. Since Thanksgiving break was close every professor and coach was trying to get everything done in such little time. I would have no free time or any time to just rest for a couple hours because I would be busy with studying, turning in homework and going over plays or film for lacrosse. On top of that we have exams in the next two or three weeks so I will be busy studying for those. I go to tutoring every other day for math and go to the writing center so they can look over my final paper before I turn it in. Over Thanksgiving break I will try to get work done and try to make time to study but I doubt I will. For Thanksgiving break I am going to Cincinnati to go see my mom's side of the family. We will be going to my aunt's house for dinner. My grandparents and other aunt will meet us there and stay for the day. My cousins and I are pretty close in age so we all get along and like most of the same things. My cousins and I have a tradition that we do every year for almost five years now. We play knee hockey for hours and hours until dinner is ready. We would always have the same teams every year. We would play three warm up games then play a best of seven series to see who would win the championship that year. At dinner we still have a kids table and an adults table even though all of the kids are almost eighteen years old. After dinner we all help clean up then sit on the couch and watch the football game. Then we play all kinds of games till about three in the morning then call it a night. Of course the next day is Black Friday so my mom, my aunts and my sisters get up really early to go shopping either for themselves or for Christmas. While they are out shopping my uncles, cousins and I sleep till noon, sit on the coach and do nothing for the whole day. The Saturday we all get ready for the OSU vs MU game. We make food, bring snacks and play games. Then after all that when Sunday hits we all go home or go back to college and get back into our routines.

Winter Break

When I got back from Thanksgiving break we had two weeks of class. The first week of classes we have that time to prepare and go over the stuff we learned over the semester. Also we have that whole week off from lacrosse so we can all focus on our classes and studying for finals. Since we have lacrosse off we have to turn in our equipment to our head coach before we leave for break. Once the first week of classes are over it is finals week.  I have two finals that week for math and computer science. One is on a Tuesday and the other once is on Thursday. Once finals week is over I need to pack up my room and my sister is coming to pick me up on campus. This year we are going to Cincinnati to spend Christmas with my mom's side of the family. But we go to our house first and do not leave for Cincinnati until like December 20th. When we get home my family and I set up the Christmas tree and the rest of the Christmas decorations around the house to of course get ready for Christmas. The

First Week of Classes!

 After I was done moving in I had two days before classes started. On the two days I had off I walked the campus some more and made some friends. I also watched some football games and slept most of the time. When Monday came around I was not ready for my 8am class or any of my classes really. I woke up around seven to get ready and eat before the class. The class was intro to Econ which is not fun at all at eight in the morning. After I ate and got ready I walked out of my room and started walking to my class. It took about ten minutes to get there. When I got there I sat down and started regretting waking up and coming here. The class started and it seemed like I was there for more than fifty minutes. I had a 9am right after that class. The 9am was English and at that point I was wide awake and the english class was a lot easier than my 8am. I got through a break from classes till noon. I went to eat at the Dining Hall and went back to my dorm to take a nap. When I woke up I walked t

Moving Into College!

 I moved into Muskingum University August 20th 2021. I woke up around 10am and got dressed and ready for the day. I walked downstairs to get some breakfast and saw my parents. We ate breakfast for the last time in a while. After we ate I walked back upstairs to make sure I had everything for college. I had everything and I was ready to go. I said goodbye to my two dogs and said goodbye to my grandma while my mom and dad packed the car with all my stuff. My mom and dad got into the car and waited for me. I hopped in the car and was ready to leave. I waved goodbye to my grandma as we drove off to Muskingum University. It was about an hour to the campus so it was not too far from my house. But we ran into traffic and it took at least two hours to get there instead of the hour it was supposed to take. We finally got there and we went to check in. We checked in and I got my key and they told me what room I was going to move into. My dad, mom and I drove to the building I was living in and p
