Sunny Austin, TX

Finally home after a whole semester! After not seeing my parents for ages, it was so good see them waiting for me at the bottom of the escalator, so good to hug my mom and dad. I think I've grown a little bit since I feel taller compared to my dad, or else he's shrunk. My house hasn't changed much, except for the massive flat screen TV that replaced the long overdue old TV we had. My mom's been cooking, you have no idea how good it smelt when I opened door from the garage. And my mom's a good cook. I don't think I've stopped eating since stepping foot inside my house. My parents just keep shoving food in front of my face, and it's so good that I just have to eat it. I swear I'm going to gain more weight in a three and half week span than a whole semester of Marketplace food.

Leaving tomorrow at 7 am for a cruise, that should be fun, lots of pictures are imminent. I think one of the stops is at some Mayan ruins, which should be fun after having watched Apocalypto (which I encourage everyone to see. It is a fantastic film. I wouldn't see it again just because I couldn't take the blood and guts all over again, but the savage beauty does hit the spot the first time around).

I'll update sporadically during break, now that I have more time to organize some thoughts. Right now though, this time difference thing is cutting into my beauty sleep.
