very busy

Every day I spend the afternoon and evening doing my homework; this sometimes can take me quite a long time for some reasons I still don't understand. This week, I don't have much time to study for my final for the quarter next week. (The class that this is in is GOALS, a class designed to help people live successfully as they get older).
It is still cold outside--but not raining. I wore my new coat today and still felt cold sometimes.
I will probably stay home and not do much for Halloween. I will definitely need to take some time to study for my final. There isn't any exciting event I can think of before at least Thanksgiving.

not much exciting

Last Thursday night was the open house, and that was probably one of the few enjoyable things over the past two weeks. My English class read some poetry of our own as well as a short poem by Edgar Alan Poe. We also had some tasty desserts that some of the other students and staff of the school made.
I don't have much to look forward to. I will need to study hard this week for a test for one of my classes that I can't use notes for. I seem to be tired often (probably because I have to get up early for school). It is usually chilly here; it rained yesterday but is mostly just cold and windy.
