We’re now past the halfway point of the semester, and in the past, November on has flown by. I’m also past the midpoint in my college career, and have decided I will try to graduate from Southern a semester early. It’ll take some extra work—a class over winter break, two this summer, and an 18 credit course load for the next two semesters. But being so close to graduating has got me thinking, “What the hell do I really want to do?” As of late my plan has been to go to grad school and get my teaching certification, but now I’m even questioning that—and after a change of school one year and a change of major the next, I’m wishing some cosmic sign would throw the answer into my lap. I’ve been thinking a lot about a job in publishing, or even trying to make it as a writer myself. I’m going to take a class in fiction writing next semester and try to flex those muscles. I took a creative writing class over the summer, and among other things, wrote a short story, “The Mug.” I’d love some feedback!
And as the time has been flying by, the weather has been getting colder and colder. Although Monti’s first-thing-in-the-morning walks have been becoming less and less desirable, and walks to campus more rushed, I am looking forward to a few things about winter: Hot cocoa, skiing, Christmas. But as my Mom always says, “Don’t wish the time away.” I don’t think it needs my help passing by anyway.
Until next time, enjoy some pics from a fun Halloween weekend.
Love,
Annie
