Triple Challenge... And Now I'm Pooped!

It was an uneventful weekend. Nice, peaceful, but uneventful. I worked on school stuff, tried to make stuffing (but was missing some ingredients) and chatted away to various friends and family. Sunday night I played a game of Scrabble with Krissie - that was fun (even though I am convinced that Yahoo! tries to give you the worst letters for fun, just to see what you'll do with them). We played checkers, too, but she beat the crap out of me, so I wasn't going to mention that right away. Kristin caught me online in the wee hours of the morning and we chatted for a while.

Today, I went to the gym with Catherine and Claire. We joined the "Triple Challenge" class: step aerobics, weight training and conditioning. It was a good class, but I am worn out now! It was a nice way to forget about the crap that goes on daily in the classroom! I came home, worked on some school stuff, and just finished an online conversation with Laura. I haven't spoken with her since the trip to Wales, so it was nice to catch up.

Everyone is getting ready for Thanksgiving there. Here, it's just another week. Of course it's one week closer to Christmas... one week closer to a break... one week closer to my trip to Belguim... one week closer to my trip home. Someone asked me if I was homesick, and really I'm not, I just miss my old life (the social one) and am ready for things to pick up a little around here. Plus, school is stressing me out and I am ready for a break. This work-thing is getting in the way of my having a good time...
