One More Post

One more post for the year! I've slacked off a little, as always. And I always wish I had posted more than I did. One of my New Years' resolutions is to blog on a more regular schedule - at least twice a month, though I hope to post even more frequently than that. I do spend a fair amount of time on the computer, and not enough of this time has been spent on this blog. I post often on Facebook, created a Twitter account a few months ago and joined Pinterest last night. I think it's time to come back to blogging!

My first semester of graduate school is completed. I'm one quarter of the way to a masters degree. Wow. I don't feel old enough to be a graduate student, but here I am. I certainly did not mean to go months without a post. I suppose I was busy with classes, papers, exams, work and field trips. Grad school is a lot of work, folks! But I'm surviving. And enjoying it!

Next semester I will begin several new classes, which I hope will be as enjoyable as my classes this past semester. Sometimes I still can't believe that I'm spending my days learning about museums and getting a degree in museum studies.

The holidays have been wonderful, and I must admit that I am not ready for them to end. We had a wonderful white Christmas (less that a quarter of an inch, but hey, in Texas that counts). I always love spending time with my family and am thankful for this past month.
The snow fell on Christmas Day, but didn't stick. I still say it was a white Christmas.

2012 was a year filled with a lot of opportunities and joys as well as sorrows and obstacles. I've found that most years tend to be this way. I am excited to see what 2013 brings, particularly as I continue grad school and seek out an internship.

Happy New Years', everyone!
