Strong Finish

           I make a plan for the week, keeping myself busy, while waiting for Christmas break to come. Man, am I excited or what?! Christmas is my favorite holiday! Because, of coarse, it's Jesus' birthday! That's the ultimate reason, I love you, Jesus!! 

Anyways, about two or three times a week I've been having basketball games. Those babies are intense. I love my team, we all have different personalities, and together we are such a weird team, yet we play together so well. 

 

Christmas break is almost here, which means the end of the semester is coming, and fast. I want to finish strong in everything; sports, grades, and just be happy with myself at the end of the semester. 

I've also been baking so much lately. I have made gingerbread men, and two types of cupcakes. Mmmhhmmm, let the Christmas celebrating begin! The tree is decorated, both of them, (mom's and dad's!!) There are even gifts under them. (We have a lot to be thankful for.) Stockings are up at mom's house, and will be up at dad's shortly. The front tree at dad's is lit-up. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about; getting the houses all cozy for Christmas, hot chocolate, just a few traditions that I love!

SURPRISE OF THE WEEK:

I received a letter just yesterday, saying that I am invited to travel to Italy, France, Switzerland, and Austria over the summer of 2013, along with other students in my county. Do I want to go? YES! I'm not sure, though. It's a big thing to do, but it'd be such an amazing experience. Still thinking about this one. 

Have an amazing weekend!
