When the heck did it get to be November?

Well, it's November 4th. Halloween has come and gone (with no trick or treaters or school wide celebration...boo) and my little sister has magically entered the adult world by turning 18. As an American I got to see some negative feelings towards my country first hand, and now as the Yankees are on their way to a world series victory, I am seeing some hatred for my home team!! Not that I don't see their points on some issues in both circumstances.. but still, it's tough out there!

School has been SO busy! With the Thanksgiving break coming up and not a ton of time in before the long Christmas break (yes it's just a Christmas break, They don't even bother to say holiday break in the bible belt) it seems like everything is getting crammed into November. Currently I am working on a Domino's Pizza Fundraiser, a Polo shit fundraiser, Krispy Kreme Donuts Fundraiser, a field trip to the festival of lights for my mentors/mentees, business orientations, partnering up with the Be An Mentor Initiative, training a bunch of high school kids on mentoring.. and.. that's just been Monday-Wed. Mostly, I enjoy being busy though. The hours and days are literally flying. And there is never, ever a dull moment where I live or work. So that's good too :)

I went to the Coastal Carolina state fair and it was... interesting. Pictures to follow. For now, here's a picture of the pumpkin the girls and I carved!
