Cornfields of Sunshine: Semester 2 Kickoff

Alright friends, it's time for another semester here in Sioux City!  By some crazy miracle, I arrived in town this morning at about 10:30.  There's really not much to report yet, other than the fact that there is absolutely no snow here.  I can't believe it's the middle of January and I don't even have to wear a jacket outside!  I keep looking out my window to make sure it hasn't spontaneously started snowing...but nope!  It looks like a beautiful spring day in the Cornfields of Opportunity.
Speaking of cornfields, I would just like to point out that the ones in southern Minnesota weren't looking too shabby this morning!  I slept for most of the car ride, but I remember waking up at (precisely) 7:57 because I could tell that it was starting to get brighter out.  I opened my eyes to find that I was surrounded by cornfields illuminated by the morning light.  The view was just short of breathtaking.  So I guess I learned my lesson--never take the cornfields for granted!  They just might surprise you.  :)
In other news, I had a lovely Christmas break filled with lots of hockey, shopping and Rock Band.  It was fun while it lasted, but I'm glad to be back in Sioux City.  I'm jumping right back into a regular schedule tomorrow!  The sun is shining, I'm back with my good friends again, and it really is good to be home.
Here's to another awesome semester!
