So, much work so little time

I guess this entry is just a rant. Being a college student is not an easy job. Trying to juggle a job, work, family, friends, and a fiance is not easy. It is hard sometimes to find a balance between them all. Money is also always an issue. I can only work so many hours while going to school. And on top of all of that I'm getting married next year so i have wedding plans to do. I guess even though it is a lot of hard work it is all worth it in the end. I'll have a job that i have always wanted, I'll be making good money, and I'll have a great supporting husband. So, anyone that says they don't want to waste their time going to college is crazy. It is one of the most full filling jobs.

Novels

So, i was reading a Historical Novel for one of my history classes and it was a great book. It was in normal language, had a non-educational tone. I learned a lot about the topic. I think this is a great tool to help teach history. I want to find more books that are novels for kids to read so that they don't have to read the dry history books that are boring and make them not want to learn.
