T-U-F-T-S!

This has been a very Tufts weekend, full of former peers I haven't seen in about a year sprinkled with a few peers I never even knew and topped off with a visit from the one and only Joggles. It was all very good and fun, and Joggles is absolutely one of the best people I know. And hopefully I'll be seeing more of those former peers because they happen to live quite close to me! It was really nice to hang out with them again.

Lately, I've enjoyed the process of reconnecting with old friends in the now and seeing how we've changed and how we've stayed the same. It's amazing that one and a half years has passed since graduating, because in some ways college feels so far away but in others it feels like the past year and a half has FLOWN by. Time is such an interesting concept. The idea of being on time always, and there being a certain amount of time between things, and that this is all very important. Who really knows? I think the construct of time was created for organizational purposes and now it's become this important thing that we couldn't live without. Just for a minute, imagine your life without TIME.

Okay, good. A busy few weeks lie ahead! This week is working and making presents and submitting my NYU application! Woooo! I'm very happy to have everything complete and ready to hand in. It took lots of work and focus to get everything ready by Dec 18th, and I'm very proud of the fact that I did it. Whether I get in or not, I pulled this entire application together in two months, and it feels nice to be submitting it.

Then next Monday, flying to KY with Dave! We're in KY for 3 days, then flying from there to Mexico City together and spending 5 days and 6 nights, including New Year's Eve, in the City that is Mexico. We are freakin' excited! And don't worry, there will be blog entries about the tales of speaking Spanish again and the trips throughout the countryside and the crazy nights salsa-ing in clubs. Estoy muy excitada!

So to all, Happy Holidays. Enjoy your time off and your time with family, and all the fun of celebrations. Much love!
