Haven’t been doing much lately except focus on the upcoming holidays. My very favorite time of year, with my birthday (on Jan 5) being the icing on the cake… It just means a lot to me, because I’m a Christian but also because I love the whole atmosphere of it. I know a lot of people are stressed out by it – and so am I, sometimes, when I think about how many cards I promised to write – but for me, it’s just… magical, I guess. Love it!

Have also been trying to be good about my social life, getting in touch with people and meeting them. Still quite bad about answering my email sometimes (as well as updating here, as you might have noticed *g*), but I’ve really been doing my best and enjoyed seeing some people I hadn’t seen in a while as well as just hanging out with closer friends.

I’m still doing much, much better emotionally than last year, yet doing all of this holiday stuff does take more out of me than it usually would, so I spend hours every day on the couch, just watching TV or reading. But I also go outside every day, for at least ten, fifteen minutes and do my best to keep up with uni.

Only thing I’m not satisfied with myself about is that darn German Lit paper – it’s been hanging over my head for a year now, and I just can’t seem to make myself start it. Right now my excuse is Christmas, but my goal is to start it during Christmas break.

And that’s enough rambling for today! 🙂
