It's the First Post of 2010!

Oh man... I have been procrastinating my posts... so now I'm going to have to combine them all into one BIG one. Hope that's alright...

First things first: Christmas break.
After finals were over (and P.S. grades are IN and I did GREAT!) I flew out to San Diego to spend the weekend at a resort with my parents and my little sister. Basically, I spent December 18th and 19th by the pool. That's right, I said DECEMBER. It was great weather... and just what I needed after a long week of tests, work, and practically no sleep.

 


Also during the break, I FINALLY got to meet my niece, Jane Ellen. She's the most precious thing I've seen (well, besides Elly Belly. She was pretty dang cute too!). I wish I could be around more so I could be a better aunt!

 


Breaks from school in my family usually mean MEXICAN TRAIN (Dominoes). So I got together with some friends from high school and we played dominoes with the fam. That was hilarious. Especially because Jordan was high on pain killers from surgery.

 
 


Christmas was hectic, but great. I made out like a bandit, that's for sure. As a graduation gift my family got me a 32 gig ipod touch and, let me tell you, it COMPLETES me. And all of my other gifts were splendid - I couldn't have asked for better. But I missed my bruddah... next Christmas he'll be here! WOOT!



 


After Christmas I got to hang out with the bestie, Shannon. Love her.




Now that I'm back in Provo I have a lot to do. Gotta find a job, sign up for a GRE prep course, and fill my life with meaningful activities. I'm thinking more YOGA, finally reading for FUN, learning the Guitar, and possibly continuing my Spanish studies at home. I also want to start drawing again and I've been working on some new poetry... so stay tuned.

Looks like you had a great end to 2009! Hope 2010 is a great year for you.

Yoga, GRE prep, reading, flying helicopters, spanish, guitar lessons, cold fusion, drawing, poetry, and ice sculptures. Did I leave anything out of your ambitious plans? Oh wait, I did. Curing Malaria. I forgot you squeezed that in between the Spanish and the Yoga. My bad.

Glad the break treated you well, and I'm missing you like crazy. Here's to a good final 4 months in Provo. We're going to have a blast.
