Christmas Break Plans

 Christmas Break Plans

  


     For Christmas Break I'm going home for the break which I'm really excited to do because I love the Christmas holiday it's one of my favorite seasons. The first week of Christmas I'm going to be spending it with my family because we like to do a lot of activities during Christmas my grandparents and my aunt and uncle usually go to see a movie as a family and then go out for dinner afterward. It's been a family tradition as long as I've been alive and we always stick to it. We also like to play board games which always gets very competitive especially when you have 5 siblings that all have played sports so no one likes to lose. There is always that one cheater in the family as well but in this case, there are two, and that's my dad and my Oma they love to cheat and we always catch them cheating. We also will be having Christmas at my grandparent's house as usual and we will be having dinner there and opening presents.

Another plan that I have going on this break is to go on a ski trip with a lot of my friends for three days in Wisconsin. I've really been looking forward to this because we were originally supposed to do this last year but we had things come up last second and we had to cancel. This year we are renting an Airbnb up there and are staying 2 nights and skiing for 3 days. All my friends are really excited as well because most of them have skied a lot in their life but for a couple, this is going to be their first time and we all can't wait to see them ski for the first time. We are going right before New Year's as well so we will all be together on New Year's and spending it together. This will also be my first time home during New Year's because every year we usually go up to Michigan with my grandparents but this year it's too hard for my grandparents to go.

    I will also be going on a ski trip with my family to Utah after New Year's to go see my 2 brothers who live there and enjoy the really big mountains that they have. I'm really excited to go there because I've only been there during the summer when it was 100 degrees and super warm. I want to see all the mountains have snow on them and I want to see the immaculate views from the valley because there is really something special there. I'm also just a little scared of the mountains that they have there because they are huge and the ones around where I live don't even compete with the ones in Utah they are like 2 times the size of them. Also, I'm very excited to see one of my brothers whom I haven't seen since August when I went to move him out there so that will definitely be very exciting. All in all, I'm just very excited for Christmas break and the very eventful break that is ahead of me.

First collegiate goal

 First College Goal I'm going to talk about my first ever soccer goal for north central and how much it meant to me. So I scored my first ever soccer goal against Carthage College last Saturday on family weekend. The reason that it meant so much to me not only was it my first goal but it was also in front of my family and friends. My grandma was there to see it and my grandmother hasn't really been feeling well recently so it really meant a lot to me that she came and supported me at my game. I didn't play that much in the game but I did play the last 15 minutes in the game and in those 15 minutes I scored and also got an assist. It was such a surreal moment and was filled with a lot of emotions. Now I'm going to talk about the goal. So before I even scored I had an opportunity to score before that but I was unfortunately offsides so it was called off and all my hope was lost because I thought I wouldn't get an opportunity like that again. But that wasn't the ca...

First Semester Of College

 First Semester Of College Recap                 For it being my first semester of college I would overall say it was a success. I came into college honestly not knowing what to expect, to be honest really. The reason I didn't know what to expect is because all these people tell me all this stuff about college and their experiences. Yes, they have been through college already and they have more experience than me but everyone ones experience in college is a lot different people from a bigger school are going to have a different experience than someone who maybe had a went to a smaller school like me. Obviously, I still listened to what they had to say about college but I really didn't pay too much attention to what they had to say and I just wanted to see for myself and have my own experience in college. Yes, I've only been here a semester but I've still experienced a lot in my 4 months of being here.     My classes, I wis...

Class Expectations for writing

 Hi, my name is will Mayer! This is my first year at North Central. This blog will be for my CARD 101 class. For my class expectations in this class, I want to become a better writer and extend my thoughts in writing instead of being very vague with my writing. In high school I really struggled in writing, because I feel that I wasn't really understanding what the author was getting at. Now that I'm in college that's very key to understand, because the writing level will be higher and there will a lot of information being thrown at you. I feel that one way that will help me is rereading and taking notes on what I read so then I can grasp what I just read. I also feel that if I start writing more and more I can better my writing skills and expand my thoughts in my writing. Secondly, in this class I want to expand my vocabulary because in high school I was using the same words over and over. I feel that if I extend my vocabulary my writing skills will be a lot higher and make...
