Christmas is here!

I just left my last class in college! I was trying to savor it but I kept nodding off. I am by no means done (got an entire week of finals ahead of me) but the fact remains that my last classroom lecture has come and gone. Oh boy!

I headed off to the union in a daze looking for some lunch. Tyler was busy doing some last minute test studying so I popped into the "De-stress Fest" where I decorated a holiday cookie and a Santa ornament for my mama. Kind of ironic, I think the first day of kindergarten I made her a hand oranament or something and here it is, my last day of college and I give her another one ;) How time does fly.

Other than the fire alarm going off once and blowing out my eardrums, it was very de-stressing. So much now that I feel the need to take a nap before I head back to campus for our documentary on choice.

I'm just in such a Christmas-ie mood now. Probably because mom and I went out and picked out a tree and I bought some Christmas tunes. I love, I repeat LOVE Christmas music. Makes me teary! I'm listening to "I'll be seeing you" by Peggy Lee and my eyes are all watery... WAAA!

I also found an amazing song by Sarah McLachlan that is so pretty... it's actually kind of sad but I love it. It's called "River."

It’s coming on Christmas
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

But it doesn’t snow here
It stays pretty green
I’m going to make a lot of money
And then I’m going to quit this crazy scene

Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
Teach my feet to fly high

Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I made my baby cry


I tried hard to help me
No it wouldn’t be at ease
But it left me so naughty made me weak in the knees

Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

But I’m so hard to handle
I’m selfish and I’m sad
Now I gone and lost the best baby that I’ve ever had

Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
Oh I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly highhh

Oh I wish I had a river
That I could skate away on

I made my baby say goodbye
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I'll Be seeing you LYRICS

Ill be seeing you
In all the old, familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through

In that small cafe
The park across the way
The childrens carousel
The chestnut tree
The wishing well

Ill be seeing you
In every lovely, summers day
And everything thats bright and gay
Ill always think of you that way
Ill find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new
Ill be looking at the moon
But Ill be seeing you.
