10 Days Until Winter break! I am extremely looking forward to it. These next ten days will be filled with presentations, lab reports, Cumulative finals, art projects, and studying, studying and more studying! Phew. I will be so ready to go home.
My roommates and I have been getting in the Christmas spirit by decorating our apartment with garland, stockings, red ribbons, and a mini Christmas tree complete with pink Christmas lights! We play Christmas music pretty much 24/7 and have been watching the 25 Days of Christmas on ABC. Last night was Elf- pretty much the best Christmas movie in history. Also, my roommate Dana bought us a Hot chocolate maker, and I bought us Gingerbread marshmellows, shaped like little gingerbread men! So it has kind of been a nightly tradition that we drink hot chocolate and watch Christmas movies every night (with a little bit of studying thrown in there!).
But what I am looking forward to when I get back to Puyallup for the Christmas season is the Ugly Christmas Sweater Party that my sister Adria and I are throwing! I have never been to an Ugly Christmas Sweater Party before so just decided to throw one! I am so excited to see everyone's funny Christmas sweaters, and just catch up with a lot of friends that I haven't seen since summer.
Another favorite Christmas-time tradition of mine is going to the Pioneer Place Mall in downtown Seattle and watching the "snow" fall from the ceiling. It looks so realistic! My family has gone the past couple of years, and for some reason it is just one of my favorite parts of Christmas! If you have never been, I highly encourage you to go.
A closing quote that I saw on a friend's twitter account today is this : "The most dangerous element to your dream is your back up plan. Toss it or else you'll use it.”
Enjoy your Christmas!
