busy student

i am taking a full load of classes this semester + working full-time. hopefully it will make the cold winter pass more quickly. i just went outside and it snowed. it is so cold that each snowflake is just as hard as when it fell - frozen. it looked like salt. shane laughed and said, "it salted." :) today was a really cold day for stg. and despite all of the busyness and the coldness . . . i feel hopeful for the new year. hopeful that i will make it through the semester that is. :)
