Pre-Thanksgiving Post
There is exactly two days and six hours until I am homefree and on Thanksgiving break. I am so ready for break: relaxation, Gramma's pumpkin pie, and lots and lots of Lifetime movies. I am writing this blog, however, as a form of motivation. I NEED to get stuff done over break, but whenever I go home, I so easily get distracted by movie nights with my sister and shopping dates with my friends. I need to get started on my Praxis paper and my portfolio, though, and I fear the only way I will actually follow through and do something productive over break is to write myself a reminder. I'm not sure what it is about this semester that makes this break seem so..necessary. I cannot wait to go home and read a book that is of my choosing, stay up late without having to worry about getting up at 6 AM, and gain five pounds of solid mashed potatoes and pie. I'm interested to see if my motivation to do homework sticks...the post-Thanksgiving blog should be pretty interesting. Have a great break everyone! :-)

I found your self-reminder sort of funny. I often have to write things down on post-it notes and make daily reminders for myself of what to do. Otherwise, I either forget to do them or just put them on hold. I'm glad to see someone use the same method- I kind of feel crazy sometimes for making so many self-reminders.
