Hallelujah!

As of 3:13 pm yesterday when I emailed my seminar professor my term paper, I have officially finished my first semester of grad school! 1 down, 9 to go :) But I'm definitely not thinking about that part yet...just celebrating! A HUGE thank you to you all for your support over these past few months, which I think I can safely say, have been some of the hardest of my life. I'm so looking forward to catching up with you all in the next 4 weeks...sans school responsibilities! I can't remember the last time I've been so happy. I woke up early this morning, despite the opportunity to sleep in, and am just about to dive in to my to-do on break list...which includes Christmas decorating (nothing up yet, not even the tree!), Christmas shopping (nothing to go under the tree yet), cleaning, cooking, baking, wrapping, organizing, scrapbooking, movie watching, visiting friends and family, and about a million other things I've had to put off. Happiness!!!
