I have never been more ready to go back to school then I am this year.

Which personally, I think is crazy, because school is only going to get harder.

But, I am ready for everything else school has to offer me.

Friends

This year I will be living with my two best friends, and I could not be more excited. These girls have been there for me through a lot, and for the chance to get to live with the people closest to me, makes me so happy.

Routine

I love summer, as do most people. But this summer has been different for me because my family has been moving from one state to another. I have been back and forth all summer, so I have been unable to have a stable job. Therefore, I have been able to do as I please all summer, but it is beginning to get a little boring (I know big problem). (; But getting back to school gives me the routine of a schedule from school and work.

City

This one is pretty obvious.. I mean I go to school in one of the prettiest cities in the country.

Money

Not having a job this summer, means not having any money. Not being in school, means no allowance. Therefore, once I get back to school and start working I will be making money, and when I am in school getting good grades, I will have my allowance back.

Future

Going to school is preparing me for my future, which I am post excited about. This is only the beginning and I can not wait to see where I end up.

Overall, school is good for me, no matter how much I hate those 8 A.M.s.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time. I'm not complaining, because I'd rather have a whole week off than three days, but there is a lot of down time. Here are some ideas as to what you can do to get the most out of your Thanksgiving break.
