hey grandma

Hey Grandama!

Thank you for the letters. It’s always a treat to hear about what’s going on in Iowa. Canada sounds like it was nice. Hopefully you had some time to relax and enjoyed the down time.  Over here finals are beginning. I've been studying nonstop, but hopefully I’ll get some good scores. My school goes on the quarter schedule. This means we have a fall, winter and spring quarter, each 10 weeks long. The classes are fast pace, but we only take 3 classes at a time so it’s not too bad. This summer I’m planning on getting a job in town, maybe working at the library or the board walk, and taking a few extra classes up here in Santa Cruz. When I’m not in class, I take a lot of photos with my camera around campus. The school has a darkroom where I can develop my own photos whenever I want. The darkroom is small, but few people have access to it, so it’s never crowded. Also, I might be going to France for a few weeks at the end of summer. Adam’s father has extra flying miles and offered to take care of the ticket costs for me and him to go and visit his family of there. It’s still not set in stone, but wouldn't that be fun?! Sheila and Nicky are frequently on my mind. I can’t imagine what is going through Nicky’s head. I only hope she holds tight to her calm nature and everything works out for the best. Lord knows Sheila’s going to need all the luck and love in the world.

Anywho, its back to studying for me.

Finals don’t wait for anyone.

I love you Grandma and all of my wackydoodle family for that matter.
