Today is Veteran's day, by many other students, it is a day the is marked by a lack of school and celebrated for that reason. We don't get the day off but it wasn't until this year that I really began to understand the significance of this holiday. It's weird because between now and next Veteran's day, life will be drastically different. Right now, if I know soldiers, they are friends of friends or friends of my parents but this time next year, it will be my best friend serving our country. Regardless of what people do in the military, the point is that they are ready and willing to serve our country with everything they have. I don't really know what else to say because these men and especially the woman are so incredibly awesome.
I feel like I have nothing else to say on that subject without rambling or getting too emotional so on to other current issues.
I had to register for my final semester of college classes. I have to petition for graduation (everyone has to, it is not because I am missing something, Mom) before March and before I know it, I will be on the field in a cap and gown with my friends. I would like to think that I am ready for all that.
Side note, I realized that I have given more tours in the last two weeks than I usually have in all of first semester. But they have been a lot more fun than usual which is great and totally worth it!
Okay, now I am really using this as an excuse not to be writing my GC reflection paper which is due tomorrow before I go into work. I am being responsible. I ate dinner before I started work and have Harry Potter on now.
