Baby Steps Add Up

Just got a huge part of one of my classes done. Presentation style. It was relatively good. I'd have given myself a B. Not too shabby.

Essentially this week is my finals week. I have the most stuff happening/wrapping up this week. Next week is a lot calmer, and all my classes are wrapped by next Friday Dec. 9th so this is the time to rockstar it up and hammer it out.

However, as a reward, and incentive I've purchased a few books to read over Christmas break. Here they are:
1. 2048: Humanity's Agreement to Live Together
J. Kirk Boyd
2. Hope on a Tightrope: Words and Wisdom
Cornel West
3. The Unheard Truth: Poverty and Human Rights
Irene Khan
and
4. Brother West: Living and Loving Out Loud, A Memoir
Cornel West
 
plus a few leadership books from the library, one of my brother's books, and I'm pretty sure I'm getting a book about saints so there's that too. All of which will add up to help me complete number 14(I believe) on my bucket list:
Read 52 books in 1 year. 
 
Bookwormin is so fantastic.
I'm nerdtastically excited for it. 

Til next time...

  • I have a seriously brutal week this week, followed by a calmer next week with all my finals finishing on the 9th. awhoa.
  • My grad school app is coming along fairly nicely
  • I didn't buy any gifts on black friday but I rocked in some nice prices for myself. 
  • My Christmas shopping is mostly done
  • I may hit my bucket list goal of reading 52 books in a year
  • I'm excited for the future
