| So I had a freak-out moment today when my mom told me that a childhood friend from home just had her first baby - a daughter. While I am immensely happy for the little mother, I can't help but feel a little short of breath with panic. A BABY!? WHAT?! Just when I was starting to get used to the thought of marriage... Damn. Time sure does go by fast.

| My wisdom teeth are killing me. I think they somehow know that they're getting removed from their cozy little place in my jaw this Thursday and they're giving me one last fight before they go.
In other news, I'm super excited about roadtripping with Christina this spring break. We even found this cool hostel right along the border of Georgia and Florida called "Hostel in the Forest". You sleep in treehouses, eat a communal vegetarian meal, you hold hands and sing around the fireplace (I'm not kidding), and they suggest that you talk a walk around the labriynth upon arrival to meditate. I feel oh-so-bohemian.

| Overall: Amazing 
It was so nice being home with my family. My little brother, sister and I cooked Thanksgiving dinner together. Maybe mom helped a little. (Ok ok, she helped a lot...) It was a little busy with all the errands I had to run. This is exactly why my parents like me being at home. The first hour or so, they're telling me how much they've missed me and then, they're asking me to pick up some groceries or something.
In other news, my friends Calvin, Susan and I finally submitted our proposal for the JP Morgan Good Ventures competition after two months of cramming work in on the weekends. We hear back from then on or before December 19th so I'll keep you updated. I think we have a really solid executive summary and powerpoint presentation so here's to the hopes that we make it to the finals!
