its beginning to look a lot like christmas

It’s amazing how a change in circumstances can brighten things up. I’ve been struggling to balance my subjects along with my extra curriculars, family and friendship responsibilities among other things that may come along the way. Its like a juggling act with knives, you drop one and you’re dead, one way or another. Its been going well and the only one on the losing end of this act was me, I got so stressed, sleep deprived and just downright crazy.

After the hell week, I’m finally free from all that deadlines, quizzes, finals and all the drama of it all. I'm finally reaping the benefits so to speak. Just as it all ended, I started to notice the mesmerizing bright lights dancing before me, the cold air brushing against my skin, the smiling faces of people around me, the decorations everywhere...the beauty of christmas. As cliche as it seems, its really true. Its hard to notice all these things when you're rushing to beat a deadline. And now I can bask in it all, just like a little kid looking at her first Christmas tree. It might be a little late in the month to feel all these but at least the spirit has finally hit me as I gazed around and said to myself...

"its beginning to look a lot like Christmas!"

...if you can't find the joy of Chistmas in your heart, you will never find it under a tree....

merry Christmas ya'll
