Update

Well, now that I'm done with the fall semester, I actually have some time to work on this.

Other than finals, the last few months have been uneventful. Church, school, work, and home. Nothing out of the ordinary.

The biggest change took place a few weeks ago, when I was called as a teacher in the Primary organization. No more dozing off during church, I guess. My class consists of the 4-8 year-olds. There are five of them, but I rarely have more than three at a time. They are generally quiet (as far as young kids go), but one of the girls is an absolute chatter box. If there is a quiet moment, she feels compelled to fill it, so I have to make sure the lesson keeps moving at a steady pace.

At home, things are a little crazy. Cabin fever has set in after spending two weeks together almost uninterrupted. With our lives as busy as they are, we're used to only spending a few hours each day together. During the holiday break, however, we've been spending the entire day together, driving each other up the walls. I've probably been least affected, since I get out of the house for work most days. Even so, I can't wait for school to start again.

My class load next semester should be quite interesting. I'll be taking Differential Equations, Statistics, and Foundations of Modern Mathematics, as well as Archery/Bowling, Language of Music, and New Testament Studies.

Everyone in the family got a book series for Christmas, and in the week since then, I've read two of the series, totaling over 4000 pages. I started with the Twilight series, which Elizabeth got, and then moved on to the Leven Thumps series, which was mine. In the next week, I'll probably have read another of the series, adding another 1000 pages or so.
