We Wish You a Merry Christmas Break



It's almost Christmas and that means I am officially on break.
Which means applying for scholarships and my friend's annual sleepover for her birthday. I'm sort of sad it will be the last one where we're all together. I'm sure I'll go by next year but I can't vouch for the others' plans.
I cannot believe all the work I have been doing since Thanksgiving.
I have had papers nearly every night and I was sick for awhile also. This senior year is not going as smoothly as I thought it would be. I'm getting used to all these papers.
I have all my applications out, I still have to send my SAT scores to one college though. I know that everyone decides by May, but I really don't want to wait that long. I'd like to have my decision by March so I can tell people where I'm going when they keep asking: "WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO COLLEGE!?" but right now, I'm not positive.

I still have that secret but I have to wait a little bit longer. I'm sure you could guess what it is but I am holding out for Christmas or New Years. I haven't come to a decision on which holiday yet.

Speaking of the holidays, my favorite part of them is visiting my family. My closest family is an hour and a forty-five minute boat ride away. Then the distances steadily increase. Because of this, I don't see my relatives all that often. I usually see my aunt and grandparents once a month, but I only see my mom's side of the family once a year. And that's at Christmastime. It's such a great time to see my family!

This is how my break WILL go:
-Make Snowflakes.
-Drink lots of tea and coffee (but not together).
-Color (I'm an avid colorer, I bet you didn't know that now did you! These are the things that you NEED to know about me.)
-Watch lots of films.
-Start working on my other blog (http://talesofeiggam.blogspot.com/)
-Write a lot.
-And of course, listen to music.

And that should fill up the next two weeks pretty well. Not extremely productive to some but I NEED this vacation.

I love snow, but for some reason we aren't getting a lot. We got about half an inch over the past couple days. But now it's raining and has all disappeared. This is not my idea of a pretty Christmas. I like snow on Christmas but the last time I saw snow on Christmas, I was nine.

Well Merry Christmas!
I'll be posting next week also.

Peace, Love and Reindeers,
Maggie
