Destinations


I have four days left of classes (tomorrow, then Monday through Wednesday next week), then five finals spread over two weeks. Then....three whole weeks of vacation time. To say I'm looking forward to that time off is a gross understatement.

D typically goes on a trip over Christmas/New Year's and this year we want to go together! The problem: where to go? So between studying like a mad-woman I'm checking out different destinations and deals. We shall see...!

Get Out and Vote


As Jon Stewart pointed out, it's only every 4 years and it's really one of the most precious rights we have as Americans. So take some time out of your day and go do your civic duty. It really can make a difference. Please, especially my generation, the 18-34 year olds: I'm tired of hearing how influential our votes could be and then we don't show up! Don't be a hypothetical; make sure you're firmly on the side stating your vote is influential.
