Ross Family Christmas!

For the record, I am feeling much better. I still have an ugly cough, but the warm semi-humid weather has done wonders! I could sure get used to this sort of Christmas.
Ken and I have had a wonderful Christmas vacation so far! We have had such a blast being with Ken's parents and Ben & Yanghee.
The following pictures are from this past week and a half. I decided that I probably owe this blog some relevant pictures.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Sick

So, joy of joys, my body has decided to succumb to the common cold. So I have a lot of catching up to do because I haven't been up to a whole lot of academics. Most of my time has been spent resting (making up for lost sleep) and trying to make some nice hot drinks to soothe my throat.

But thankfully the finals I have taken so far have gone relatively well.

I hope everyone will be patient with me as I catch up!

Finals Blah

Finals week is fun in many ways. Counting down the number of classes you have left (0). Celebrating every day about how many days left before break (7). Fewer assignments (more deadlines) and group study sessions. I don't know it's fun sort of, but it also means that Ken and I are busier and thus have fewer exciting evenings. Over all, I think I like normal school weeks better. Ah well.
On a more positive note, I babysat yesterday and it was awesome! Also, I'm in charge of our date tonight and I've got some great ideas up my sleeve!
