Alyssa Lately

[via the iPod and one from Jocelyn's phone]

So life is just moving along.  Not too much new from when I post week to week.  Of course school work just carries on.  I have lots of moments of stress during the week of all the things that I need to get done but I really have more time than I think I do.  I like to get my work done at least a couple days before though so it always creates a little bit of stress on my silly self.  I like school and I like that I will be on my Winter Break next week so I am also not gonna stress out too much.  I deserve a break! 

I have been hating the cold weather.  Luckily I was sick in December because I think I would die if I was sick now [knock on wood] and this weather would not help it at all.  So because of the cold, my style has been lacking.  I wear leggings to school most days with big sweaters.  It has been sunny though which is a pretty decent thing.  Not so good when I leave my sunglasses in the car most days and have to warm them up before I start driving anywhere but oh well, not a big deal.  Because of the cold I have also drinking a lot of hot chocolate and herbal teas and wearing my knitted grey infinity scarf a lot, it is so warm and cozy!  I might even have to make another one.  

Winter has also brought some fun and random things my way.  Like some old photos that Kayla got developed.  I do not even remember these photos ever being taken.  I also had to buy a new gas door for the echo since my other one's opener snap thing fell off.  I had to get a silver one from a used car, but I was just too lazy to take it to get painted so I just went to the shop and got it put on instead.  I think it compliments my light blue car a little any ways.  Last but not least was my last business society 'multi-establishment field trip'.  It was sort of a random night, but I enjoyed spending time with the one and only Jocelyn Neal and catching up.  School is crazy for everyone but it was nice to have some one on one time!  

So, my weeks have basically been like this since the beginning of January:

Monday: Sleep in, wake up around 9am.  Get ready for the day, do some school work, make lunch.  Class from 3:00-4:15 [theory] and then come home.  Prep/Help make dinner, do some school work and watch the Bachelorette with Kayla and Amanda.

Tuesday: 6:30 or 7:00am wake up, breakfast, get ready for the day, pack a lunch. Around 8:30, leave to take Kayla to Holland College.  I arrive at school around 9:00am and I'll get some readings done.  Class from 10:00-11:15 [leadership] and then I'll find a spot to relax and read/do school work and eat my lunch.  Class from 1:30-4:00 [perspectives of ageing].  Come home, eat dinner with the family and get school work done for the evening!

Wednesday:  Monday repeat.  After I come home from theory I start dinner and then I head back to school for my evening class [business communications].

Thursdays: Tuesday repeat except I only have leadership class.  After that I either go home to do school work or go to work.  Institute at 6:30-8:00 and then home to relax for the night.

Friday: DAY OFF!  But not really...I always find myself busy doing something or picking up a casual shift at a day care location.

Some weeks are crazier than others, I have a feeling this one might be with some little Valentines Day things going on here and there and trying to get work done before the break.  I am also hoping to see some friends this week because I will be gone away for most of the break {nova scotia to see my Pinsents!}.  Although it will be busy, I am hoping for a good week, I am optimistic that it will be a good week!
