I know I know. I have been really MIA lately but I am back. I was sick with strep but I am glad that is over and I am better. I am all caught up with school work finally and this weekend I took it to rest and relax. I started a new sock on Tuesday though because I was stressed out because of trying to catch up on everything. Don't worry mom, I knitted during the three hours of meetings I had so I wasn't missing studying time. This weekend, I really sat down and worked on it. And guess what! I finished it. I love the colors. I got this yarn from The Loopy Ewe. For my third sock (I have already made one pair of socks) I am happy how this turned out. I made a lot less mistakes this time. YAYYYYYYY! I still need to finish the other and will work on it during Thanksgiving break. Which starts on Tuesday. I am excited about break because I do love being home. I get to eat with the Woods on Wednesday which I am pumped for because I miss them dearly. Plus I am jealous mom gets to see them all the time and I don't. Also, who doesn't love a good homecooked meal (which I hope dad cooks. Just kidding mom!)
So back to knitting. I taught my roommate how to knit and she is doing greatly. She is working
on a scarf for her brother for Christmas. It looks amazing. Although she is still working on it, she left it in her boyfriend's room. Because of this, she was bored while I was knitting last night so I made her start a hat. She is getting very frustated with it but it looks great. I had to sneak into her room (well walk in because the door was open) and take the picture. Sorry Ashley, but I wanted to show off your skills. Plus look at her book. She is very proud of this book. Must be an anthropology thing. I am very proud of her and her mad knitting skills.
Also, she has gotten me into the TV series LOST. Oh my! Is that a good show. I watch part of season one but the library didn't have the other parts of the season checked in so I will have to wait. Other then that, not much is going on. I am re-reading a book called Slacker Girl. It is an amazing book. Any TR major should read this book as well as any body else. I decided that is how I want my life to be when I finish college for a few years. Who knows where life will take you. But it is an amazing book. READ READ READ it!
Other then that, not much is going on at Longwood. UVA plays VT on Saturday. I am excited about the game! Who isn't? GO HOOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the sock! What is the yarn and colorway? What size needles did you use? We also miss you dearly and can't wait to see you again. And no, we don't get to see your mom "all the time". We have managed one supper since the end of summer. However, your mom and I do email each other when we can.
Drive safe home. We miss you!
glad to hear you're feeling better!!!
and umm...
GO HOKIES!!!
