How can I make winter break last forever?

I cannot believe I only have a week of winter break left. It has been the most relaxing, most needed break ever. I hung out with my nephews in New Orleans. I slept. I read Twilight, which was so fun. I read a bunch of magazines. I watched every season of Weeds and rented a bunch of movies. I don't want it to end. But it will. And I will be going back to class starting January 12th. On the plus side, my professors for next semester are supposed to be pretty awesome, and I have one less unit in my schedule. I imagine that won't make much of a difference, but I still welcome it. I also do not currently have a job lined up, so that should be interesting. I am making less than hoped for progress with the sleep apnea, so it may be best to not have a job. The CPAP machine is helpful, but I can't sleep with it on, so that is problematic. I have another appointment with my sleep specialist on Monday, so hopefully we can figure out a plan. I also need to figure out what I will be doing this summer.

As for New Years resolutions, I kind of hate them. So much pressure and I usually crumble. I did try to put in place some post-Thanksgiving resolutions that will carry over and aren't going too badly. I am trying to eat dinner at a reasonable hour because last semester I was eating after class and 8:30 dinners make me cranky. I am also using my Wii Fit and going to the gym in my building more often because I really have no excuse not to. Oh, and I am trying to win back my soul from Starbucks, so I only want to buy beverages from them once a week at the most. So far, going pretty well. I make coffee at home, and Duchess bought me a coffee bean grinder so it is all fresh and delicious every morning. Success.

Wish me luck for the next five months. I miss you all.

GOOD LUCK!!! Just take one really deep breath and don't exhale until the semester is over. Ok, so maybe I should not be giving out advice. 2009 holds great things! I feel it!
