Whew. I have to admit, I'm tired. but happy.
What am I happy about?1. SKI BOOTS. new, heavenly, snug as a bug on a rug, and warm. 2. Powder. heavy, but so soft!! and snow feels so Christmassy! A lot of aussie students have a love/hate relationship with the stuff- pretty, cold, heavy, soft, wet, tasty =)3. Fireplace. 4. free internet 5. students that feed me and give me candy. and hugs. 6. I must now admit that the HUGS are a favorite. Have you been hugged today? GO Go! Find someone now!I could go on but it would get boring.so here's another catagory =) hahaWhat am I looking forward to?1. CHRISTMAS PARTY TOMORROW!! We're having a Potluck, and I bought a $10 3-foot high already lighted fake tree, and we're going to have a white elephant gift exchange! I cheated, and dug in deep to find out these gifts will be under that tree tomorrow:-A Napolean Dynomite keychain that quotes the movie, including "do you have any chapstick, my lips hurt real bad." a favorite of D-Steeze (see Gladys the groovy mule in previous post)-A T-Shirt paying out snowboarders (there's more down-under slang for ya "to Pay out" = to make fun of or put down)-I can't remember what else. The gift I'm giving: hand and feet warmers, $5 starbucks card, and stuff to put in a bath to relax sore muscles. we're all in a bit of pain here =) I hope you are all full of peace and joy right now! Much Love to you!!
