Playing hookie

Let's just pretend like last week didn't happen. It was one of the hardest weeks I've had since being in college, so let's just ignore it and put it behind us.

Thanksgiving week is going to be pretty awesome though! I have decided to start it early: today. I slept in and didn't go to my class. Probably not a smart idea, but it sure feels good. :) And I have to say, in three years of school this is the first time that I have ever skipped classes just because I felt like it. There have been other times when I forgot to set my alarm, or I HAD to finish a project or a paper, or I was at the hospital doing nursing things. But today I am for real playing hookie for the first time, in three years.

Last night I was over at a friends house and there were a bunch of people there. They had white paper and scissors out and people were cutting out snowflakes. Let me tell you, I have never for the life of me figured out how to do this. My snowflakes always come out terrible! Or in eight pieces, or looking like a hot dog or something. I cannot cut out snowflakes. But I can make the 3D snowflakes, the ones that look like this:
And everyone kept staring at me so I taught people how to make them. It really easy. This is what I tend to do with my time when I want to procrastinate. It is therapeutic too, just doing something with your hands. Here's how you make them. I like to make red and white ones too because it looks like a peppermint. But mostly I'll make white ones, or baby blue. It would probably be cool if you had sparkly scrapbook paper or something then they would glitter. HAVE FUN MAKING THEM!!!
