chapels, class, meals, work, homework, sleep, maybe work out but usually not.
I have 2 TPAs due in a week and a half. Most of you do not know what that is. As an education major, I have to complete a thing called a 'teacher performance assessment' and they are really long assessments pretty much, with tons of questions on how to get content across in the classroom when different factors are brought into consideration. I have started on one, but it is still very stressful to know that 2 are due, along with my regular school work. I have to be more disciplined but it's hard when "I can't focus until my Itunes is organized correctly" or "Well, I can't do my homework until I do my laundry". So dumb.
This past weekend my family was visiting, checking out Point Loma for my sister. So I had dinner with them and stayed with the in the hotel. My mom and I are going to see Kelly Clarkson 3rd row in Fresno, December 1st, so we talked about that a lot. I actually have a lot coming up:
Next weekend is Halloween. Not doing ANYTHING (kinda disappointed because I always wanted to do SOMETHING for Halloween while I was in college). Oh well, my friends are coming over to watch a few scary movies that night. I also will be finishing one of those dreaded TPA's that weekend.
Weekend after that I am going to VEGAS to see Kelly at the Hard Rock Cafe with 2 of my closest friends.
Weekend after that is my sisters birthday and she wants to come down to Disneyland so she can get her pass for cheaper on her birthday. She also wants to go to a TV Taping but I said only one thing. Also we get to meet up with my old church friends there too so I am super excited since I haven't seen them since I changed churches.
Then it's Thanksgiving. I will be spending it with my mom, sister, and my cousins in the Riverside area who have 2 young kids. So should be fun, never had Thanksgiving with them before. I always have it with my dad's side. For Christmas though, my dad is coming (first time I've seen him in over a year and a half) so we will be with his side which is always fun. Then the 30th, my mom, sister, and i fly out to Oklahoma to do things with my mom's side. I am sad I am missing New Years though since I always spend it in Visalia with the Rodriguez's, since laura's birthday is on the 31st. Our tradition of building a fort and living in it for 3 days NEVER gets old.
Finally after all that, I return to California on January 6th, and it's back to work I go. Then I will be starting my last semester of school. For now at least.
Biola had it's annual Torrey Conference this past week. No classes because we have to go to sessions instead. It started off bad (usually does) and by the night sessions, I was so into it. Great speakers that set my heart on fire for God. I love looking around and thinking "this is my school...I love Biola." Francis Chan closed the conference Friday morning and man, is he amazing. Go listen to his stuff on youtube. He tells it like it is. I can't get enough.
Well, that should hold you over for a few more months hahaha.
