"Winter-Like Weather"

Hello all, hope that everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving break and is excited that there is only one week of school left for the semester. Only one project, one presentation, and 4 finals stand in my way of total relaxation.

This past weekend was the Fall/Winter dance showcase, which went very well. Quick costume changes and make up flying everywhere, but I am excited to see the video (which will be on Facebook soon, so look out for that). I am excited to see what next semester showing will have. I can't believe that I only have a year and a half until the end of undergrad (thank goodness).

Now that it is Decemeber (and has been for awhile, sorry for the lack of posts). I am getting in the holiday spirit, I already planned what I am getting most of my family but I am having hard time finding a great gift for the men in my family (especially my brother.) If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it.

Besides presents I have come up with at least 10 things I need to do before Christmas Day comes around:

1. Decorate the dorm
2. Take a walk around Boston Commons to see the festive decorations
3. Make hot chocolate with candy canes
4. Play in the snow (which could happen tomorrow, aparently tomorrows weather will be "winter-like" and being in New England I am not sure what that means.)
5. Decorate a Christmas Tree
6. Hand make all of my Christmas Cards
7. Snuggle up and watch Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown ( the best holiday movie of all time.)
8. Listen to the entire Nutcracker soundtrack
9. Sing Christmas carols (even if I am just doing it in my dorm, or the shower)
10. Attend mass Christmas Eve with the family (like I have a choice)

Hope that everyone is having a safe and healthy holiday season.

Until next time : ]
