Thankful for Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was awesome! I headed up to North Caroline Thursday morning at 5 am. Little did I realize that I accidently rerouted myself on MapQuest and sent myself on a wild turkey chase. I had looked at the directions and remembered that the trip would take me 5.5 hrs. However, my printed version said 6.5 hours. Turns out I moved the route to include directions up an unnecessary highway and back down that same highway

However, my map did not print so I had no clue that I had done this...It's amazing what school has done to my common sense!

North Carolina is ABSOLUTELY beautiful!!! I almost didn't want to leave. It forced me to relax and not study and catch up with a dear old (really young) friend!

Another Thanksgiving surprise arrived in Atlanta on my way back and that was a call from my friend Max from my days at the Electric Beach in Seattle. He and his wife were visiting friends in Athens and asked me to meet up with them at the Mall of Georgia.
It was an awesome Thanksgiving despite the fact that I was away from home...but I will be there soon enough to enjoy the remaining holidays of the season.

Now it's time to get my rear in gear and begin preparation for the next 3 weeks! YIKES!!! I am going to need many prayers...hint hint!

It's been so Long

I really should be sleeping right now, however I feel that it has been so long I must briefly blog.
I have pictures from Halloween with the Girls at Wicked... So good!
Currently, I am surviving week 7 of our quarter, only 3.5 more of them to go!
Tentatively I'm heading to North Carolina for Thanksgiving next week to visit the Tavana's (college roommate & her family). So excited to get out of dodge!
Other than that my time is spend sitting in classes, studying my booty off and dreaming of my next break in California! Oh how I miss the west coast, mostly my family & friends!!!
