vacation...

i am currently on my winter break.  an i have been enjoying it alot.  however, i have been spending way too much money and i am not supposed to be spending money right now.  i have a little bit saved up, but i was wanting to use that for when i graduate.  i was planning on selling my truck and combining that with what i already have to buy a new car.  im not sure which vehicle im going to get, but im kinda interested in the new acura tl.  i also like the nissan 350z.  however, im not sure what im going to get yet.  i still have a couple of months to decide.  i may not get either one.
ok, so my winter break...  i have not really done anything lately.  i try to get up about 9 am though.  i dont really like sleeping all day because then i feel like my day is wasted.  now i understand that sometimes it does feel good to just sleep in, but, most of the time, i feel better waking up a little earlier.
well, this weekend i am going snowboarding with one of my friends and his family.  i am leaving saturday and then coming back next wednesday.  now wasnt i saying something about spending too much money...?  anyways... it should be good snow though, with all the rain we have been getting lately.  it should be some really good powder up there.  that sounds good to me.
christmas is only a couple days away.  im not sure what my family is doing, but i think we are just going to stay home.  that is ok with me, i guess.  i didnt really get anyone anything this year.  it kinda makes me feel bad, but most of them understand.  at least they seem to.  maybe they are mad and they are just not showing it. lol but me having to pay to work (instead of the other way around) is not really my idea of a good job.  but they seem to understand.
well, i am going to take off now.  i need to make sure i have all my stuff ready for this weekend.  if i dont have anything, then i need to make sure i get it.  and spend more money... ~o joy!~
well, have fun! talk latter!

ok, i am done.  sorry about all that!  lol

umm...school...?

well, yesterday was my last day of the semester and i am now on vacation for about a month.  that makes me feel really good.  today, i got started on that vacation... i have not done anything.  just been lazy all day.  and it feels good! lol
yesterday was also my last day at the reedley hospital.  to be honest, i am going to miss it there.  i made some new friends and i am going to miss them.  i wont miss the drive of course... and getting up at 6 am.  not something i am really good at... lol
i have already gotten my final grades for this last semester and i am happy with them.  i had three classes and got three a's.  three classes and its like 14 units.  and they have us working our 40 hrs a week with no pay.  nice... lol  but i only have a couple of months left.  and i am definitely ready to graduate.
well, i am pretty much done for now.  nothing really to say.  i will try to get on again soon and let you know how my vacation is going.  talk latter!  have fun!
