what did you do over christmas holidays?

    It's funny how after two and a half years at CMU, my hometown seems like a bit of a dream.  When I got back to Niverville in late December, it felt kinda weird.  Friends I hadn't seen in far too long.  Family who I dearly missed.  I kept very busy this Christmas.  Some of my highlights:


1.  Playing an all-day board game with my friends (seriously, from 10am-6pm).


2.  Midnight trip to a really sketchy Winnipeg McDonald's.

Sketch restaurant, great people!

3.  Attending a really cool Christmas service at my church with a jazz rendition of the Christmas story.

4.  Lots of eating!

5.  Skiing and almost getting caught on the lift for 45 mins.

6.  Watching all the Pirates of the Caribbean movies with my sister, and then realizing that they are making another one (it's due out May 20th!)

7.  Going to a large water park in the US overnight.

     I had a good time.  At the same time, I'm really excited to be back at CMU - I started missing people almost as soon as I left!  Most schools in the Winnipeg area begin today or tomorrow, but classes started for us yesterday.
