The President's Face: Not For Eating Off Of

I thought Dad would really appreciate this. I was in Bed Bath and Beyond and had to take a picture. They had only sold 2 I think.

Snow! Snow! Snow! Thought I'd share some photos of the latest battle I had with nature getting my car transformed from an igloo into an automobile. The contrast in the photos from my phone didn't turn out too well, so I've drawn little lines to help reveal actual amount of snow involved.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

I just wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! The holidays are just wonderful because we get to see family and spend time together. Instead of just running back and forth after seeing people for one day, we get to actually spend quality time together (like playing "The Minister's Cat" with the Shimeks). It's been such a fun holiday so far. I haven't had any work or school, which has been delightful, and it has really given me the chance to pay attention to family. I also can't wait to talk to my brother. He's in Brazil on his mission and on Christmas we will all get the chance to talk to him and I can't wait! It's been more than a year since I've talked to him and I know he will have a hard time speaking in English because he hasn't in probably eight months but that doesn't matter, it will be nice just to hear his voice. We are also going to California to see my family down there and spend some time with my immediate family and I am excited to just have a relaxing holiday all together. Oh and of course one of my best friends is getting married on January 2nd so that is going to be absolutely wonderful because they are perfect for each other. A little hectic but so much fun! Anyway Merry Christmas to everyone!

The Longest Day...

Today has seemed like an exceptionally long day, perhaps it was because I was working on the most boring project ever. Well actually the project overall is cool but what I was doing was not. I just need some time to relax and let my brain rest and so I thought I would enter the world wide web and vegetate for a while. I know it seems strange to be sitting here writing, but I have always found writing to be very relaxing, somewhat like reading a good book. When you're done you kind of have an overall feel of relaxation even if you can't remember all of the details of what you just accomplished. Anyway I'm sorry if this is sounds a little out of it, I'm not very good at hiding my tiredness. Steve and I are doing well-Thanks dad for wishing us good luck on our finals, we really need it this time. As previously mentioned we are amidst the field of finals that manages to creep in around this time of year, but things are looking up, it seems as if we will actually pass all of our classes this semester. Now some of our grades hinge on finals, which I really don't think is fair if you've been going to the class all semester and doing the homework, but I am pretty confident that if we study up these next few days we can blow them out of the water. Other than that we've just been working. I've been slipping in as many hours here and there as I can and we're just doing our normal thing...nothing much to report. Sorry this wasn't a very exciting entry, I guess I didn't really have much to say, but it was relaxing (mission accomplished). I think now I will take a short nap and then get up and start prepping for finals. I have work tomorrow so I won't be able to do as much studying as I wanted tomorrow, so I must do it tonight. Ah well, thus is life. I hope everyone else is doing well, and good luck with life this next week!
