My life is great! I'm having so much fun! I've been so busy with things that I don't get much downtime anymore. It's good to keep busy with productive things, but I do wish occasionally for some downtime where I could do nothing but relax. Maybe someday in the future (probably when I'm old and bald) it will happen. Until then, I've gotta make the most out of every moment!
The semester is now winding down. I've done pretty well overall. Not perfect, but pretty good. I only took two classes this term. Didn't want to overwhelm myself too much. Both classes were pretty difficult, too, which had me studying fairly hard to keep a good grade in them. The semester officially ends on December 10th, so I've got a couple more weeks (and a few more exams) to finish before I can officially focus on the holidays. I am enrolled for next semester, too. I'm planning on taking a bit bigger load this upcoming term, though. We'll see how that works out!
Work is work. I'm loving it, don't get me wrong. Being at Sundance is an opportunity and a blessing. It is a job, however, and not a career for me. I try and be as productive as possible while I am at work. However, that is difficult in the middle of the night when I've already done most of the things that are required or suggested I complete. I am learning a lot about resort operations and how to better manage a resort facility. Hopefully I'll get to use these skills in the near future if I can find a job in resort management somewhere in the U.S. We're getting ready for the winter season up there, so things are abuzz. From making snow to selling season passes to winterizing buildings and equipment, everyone is busy. Most of us can't wait for the season to open on the 11th of December. Not only will business pick up again, but we can finally play in the snow! Yay!
Church has taken a more prominent role in my life. With my calling, I'm always trying to coordinate efforts and work towards strengthening the ward members. It's hard trying to balance this with school and work. I'm not always the easiest person to reach since I stay so busy. As well, I don't feel like I'm completely myself on Sundays since I'm coming off of very little sleep. I try my hardest to be awake and alert at all the meetings and magnify my calling as best as I can. I just feel like I fall short on a regular basis. I've been told I'll get some counselors soon to help ease the burden and work that I've got. I've yet to see it happen, though. I sure hope it happens soon!
No updates in my social life. Still in the same position as I was several months ago. I haven't allowed much time for anything to develop in this area, though. I've been pretty focused on other things. I probably should start working on this, eh?
