No no no, not the END the end, but yes the end of the school semester and this crazy amount of stuff I’ve been up to recently This past weekend was just as buys as I predicted but plenty fun too. It was a lot of fun to see so much family and have a chance to show them around campus a little. I never mind the extra bit of eating out that always comes along with family visits either I felt a little bad that I was SO busy with everything else that I didn’t get to spend quite as much time with my parents, but I’ll see them again in a week so I guess it’ll be ok.

Festival of Carols was awesome again this year. For those who don’t know, Goshen’s Festival of Carols is one of the biggest concerts of the year featuring primarily college students. All four major choirs along with the orchestra and local children’s choir perform at the show and Sauder is all decked out with huge christmas trees and garlands. Anyway, it was pretty tiring but well worth the effort and I think things went quite well on the whole (even when we had a surprise visitor :[). Oh, and as an added bonus this year’s performance is being broadcast on TV! Sure, it may be on a public TV station but I still think it’s pretty cool.

Deck the East Halls was quite the smashing event. We had over 100 people visit the house (by our best estimates) tho we were left with a ton of cookies and even a bit of eggnog. It was pretty fun on the whole.

Today I took my parents and G’ma Kuhns back to O’hare and Beth to the ER (no worries, she’s doing ok, just keep her in your prayers that she starts feeling better & that the break will be good and relaxing!). Now I’m doing my best to stay motivated and get the paper writing and studying done that I need. Oh, and I need to take my car to the shop quick before we drive it half way across the country, bah! Hope exams are going well for everybody!
