My Spring Break Staycation

This past week was spring break on the Winona State Campus. Some students went home, and others went on vacations. Although I would have loved to do both of these, I got the pleasure of staying in Winona to continue my placement and work every single day. Now I am not complaining, The things I got to do while here were actually a lot of fun.

1. I ate cheesecake

Recently HyVee got Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake in their bakery. My roommate and I got a mini one and ate almost all of it. It is amazingly delicious. You need this in your life.

2. I woke up at 6am EVERY SINGLE DAY

Yes, this is a tad exaggerated. It was only seven of the eleven days but still. This was to much.

3. I watched an entire season of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

Recently my roommate made me watch this. I couldn't stop. After tonight it will be two seasons.

4. I did homework

NO ONE does homework over spring break. But I did it.

5. I cooked actual meals. Not just popcorn.

With the little free time I had I found the motivation to cook actual meals. I made brats, veggies, and baked potatoes. It was fantastic.

6. I worked

I know, I said I would exclude this, but my job is amazing and it was a great way to spend my time. I work for Home and Community Options. My clients are great. My coworkers are great. This job rocks

7. I took a nap

It is shocking that this was able to happen.

8. I went to my practicum

My SPED practicum is every morning for three hours at a fantastic school near Winona. I love my kids and I love my cooperating teach.

9. I procrastinated my laundry

Yes, I know. This is a horrible one. But I am running out of things because my life isn't that exciting. Give me a break

10. I watched the walls

Refer to number 9 for why this is on the list.

11. I waited for school to start again

I love having time off, but I am ready to graduate. I am so excited for this break to end and for school to start again.

With each new year comes new goals.

Deciding on a goal can be hard, unsure of what to change for this new year. A new goal for myself is to be happier and take care of myself more. I am a very driven person; so driven that I commit to a million and ten things.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.
