Last Wednesday (or at least the part of it after 2pm) was by far the best day of my semester. I got to spend time with good friends, got to see all my lovely LSCC coworkers and students that I worked with over the summer, got to hang out at the Wiley household (always a blessing), and THEN I got an email confirming my acceptance to study abroad next semester at Reunion Island. Glorious. I might have cried a little.

Summary of fall break: Driving, Lee's Summit gloriousness, lots of sleep, Liz's sweet family, Where the Wild Things Are, great food, eye contact with a Bengal Tiger (my favorite animal) at the Omaha Zoo, more great food, relaxation, sleep, time with great friends, more great food. Overall, I'd call it a success.

I'm sure I could write much more, but given the current time + reality of Philosophy test in the morning, I'd better do something to induce sleep... probably not drugs, don't worry.
