Stormy nights and falling into December

I've got plans in motion for this month: The end of this long, looooong semester is coming up, I have some trips set up for the second part of December and first part of January, I've got an application for a credit card out, and if I stay conscientious I should be able to start the new year out on a good foot forward.

I'm actually heading over to France for a little over a week to see Katie and have a little head-clearing personal trip. I should be a lot of fun, we'll celebrate New Years together and be lovey and romantic in the Alps. I'm excited! Well, a little nervous about navigating to the train station and down to my final destination, but It should be okay once I'm actually doing it. It's like any complicated maneuver, it's always more complicated and scarier when you are thinking about it, but easy once you are in motion. Shifting gears manual is like that for me - I can't focus on it while I'm driving, I just have to trust my muscle memory and my instincts.

I'm excited for Ladycation too. I was thinking about it in class today, and it was comforting to think that I'll be around my favorite people in a little over two weeks. Incredible, the fall went so fast. We'll be missing a couple people which is sad, but we'll still have a drunken good time. Birdhouse reunion! The Secret Santa is good too, It's easier to buy gifts for one person instead of something not as good for everyone.

Anyways, deep breaths. Stay calm and carry on, as they say.
