UGH

Have you ever been sitting in a room, watching someone shake their leg? Well I have and it drives me crazy. Most people have a few pet peeves that really get to them, but not me! I have tons of pet peeves or little quarks.

My number one pet peeve is when people don’t match. I can’t stand when people where things that don’t go together, or the colors don’t fall together. I have been getting used to what people wear and not matching, but if I’m going anywhere at all I always need to match. My clothes match when I go out, when I work out, and even when I’m at work. Along with this matching my clothes my underwear and bra must match as well! One other thing that pisses me off is people who wear Nike shoes and Adidas sock. I really don’t like Adidas.

                Going out to eat is always a priority of mine. I love going to all different kinds of places, but one downfall of going out to eat is that different restaurants have different brands. I feel that if a restaurant doesn’t have coke products it isn’t really worth going to. I need to be able to drink a refreshing diet coke to enjoy my meal, without it isn’t really worth eating to me.

                I also cannot stand when you are texting a person, and you are having a full conversation. You send a text, they send a text. Maybe like takes 1-2 minutes. Then all of a sudden it takes them 30 minutes to text you back. Also it bugs me if someone who sends you a text saying what’s up, and you reply within a few minutes, and then they don’t send you anything back. Don’t start texting if you’re not going to reply it’s stupid.

These are just a few of my main pet peeves, I have many many many more!

FINALS

Since I’ve started college, I feel like I have been most stress over this semester’s finals. Although I only have 3 final tests, it seems like a lot to handle. Although I’m nervous and am hoping for all good grades, I’m just as excited. I can’t wait for winter break!

This semester I have taken less credits in classes than previous semesters, but I have felt overwhelm most of the semester. I feel like some professors don’t understand most students who are going to UW Sheboygan work full time or part time jobs. I know it shouldn’t be an excuse, but I feel like sometimes a professor thinks you only have that one class.

I’m glad some of my finals this semester are projects and papers, rather than final exams. I feel that making an exam worth 200 points can become really intimidating. I think it puts a lot of pressure on students, if you have 5 classes and 5 final exams. I know I personally get really stressed and feel like there is never enough time.

Although I’m stressing over finals, I am very excited for classes to be finish, having a month off of school sounds amazing. I am looking forward to all the fun winter activities that come with snow.(if it ever comes). Even though I’m really looking forward to the break, I’m excited to come back to school to start all my new classes!

Christmas Time!

Working at the Osthoff you deal with many kinds of people  and different events. Now that were in December, we have lots of events going on. We have lots of Christmas parties, breakfast with Santa, brunch with the reindeer, and the Christmas Market. Each of these events symbolized Christmas traditions.

For the first three Saturdays in December the Osthoff host breakfast with Santa. This is a buffet style breakfast made for kids. The buffet is tiny just for the kids, it’s filled with fruit, decorated cookies, snowman shaped cupcakes, pancakes with every topping you could want, and much much more. While eating, Santa walks around the ballroom and each kid get to sit on his lap and take pictures.  After breakfast is over, the kids can sign up to decorate cookies and make ordainments.

Brunch with the reindeer is a little different, its more formal. It is also a buffet style meal. It has lots of yummy food. There is prime rib, different salads, lots of hot food, and very very delicious desserts. While this is going on we have reindeer outside families can pet and visit with.  Also Saint Nicholas walks around for the kids to see and visit with.

If your looking for some good food, and some great family time. I definitely recommend coming to brunch or breakfast. Even if you aren’t, you should definitely check out the Christmas Market it, it is a German based Christmas Market. Lots of different booths to look at!
