oh, hey break

I have been released.  Fall finals for my junior year of college are now in the books (jk... I don't get grades back until next week probably) and I have a few weeks just to take a breather between semesters.  Yesterday was basically a whirlwind of me trying to do multiple things with multiple mindsets, floating between maintaining focus as a designer during my final critique while also coming to the realization that OH MY GOSH CHRISTMAS IS NEXT WEEK.  It was an interesting day.

As soon as I finished my last final I had to go back to my dorm to pack and check out my suite.  Per tradition of semesters past, of course I ended up listening to Les Miserables.

Side note... it's very difficult to be productive when listening to Do You Hear The People Sing.

Once I finally made it home I began to tackle Mt. Laundry.  I found my knee socks (courtesy of the lovely Caitlin Cash) and decided to put them on my arms whilst putting away laundry.  I quickly became aware of the evolutionary advantage of thumbs because not having them while folding clothes is very difficult.  And frustrating.

To cap off my first half-day of Christmas freedom, Mama allowed me to open up the one-pound box of chocolates that she got as a gift from one of her students.  It was about as big and wonderful as you would imagine a one-pound box of chocolates to be.

To conclude, I'd like to apologize for the lack of posts recently.  You know the drill.  I've been busy.  Plus all of the creative work required by school sometimes leaves me a little dry in the idea department.  Or, let's just be honest here, I just got lazy about my favorite little side project.  I promise to do more than one entry this month though.  Heck, I might even do a weekly post.  We'll see.  For now, Merry Christmas and happy break!
