Happy Almost End of the Holiday Season!

I notice that nobody has been posting over break, but I'm back and if anyone is bored I thought they might need something to read. That and I just want to babble. Last night we had the most fabulous girls night where we drank wine, snacked (Jocelyn, my friends loved your hummus), and did one of my favorite activities - reading the ad's on Craigslist. OK, that sounds boring, but we read the Casual Encounters section, and that is hilarious. If you've never seen it, you should go read them because it's seriously funny. My Christmas at home was pretty good. Except for the fact that I spent a total of 14 hours wrapping presents. And I gained about 8 pounds. I got a lot of fun stuff, and Saffy got this totally cute T-shirt. That was probably the thing that excited me most. My mom is also making me a winter wreath to hang outside. It's all glittery and pretty. I'd list all my presents but my mom would say someone was going to come rob my apartment if I did that, so I won't. Since I've been back I've been working on painting my bookshelves black (although I really think my dad gave me a can of paint that says black but really contains midnight blue, but whatever) and unpacking some more stuff. I got a letter from the MAC program in which the director told me I didn't get the fellowship I applied for. I don't know if she was just trying to make me feel better, but she said that they considered me to be in the top tier of MAC students, which I should be proud of. So there you go - you guys know a top tier student, be proud! Now it's time to get ready for New Years Eve and then the holiday season is officially over for another year!
