Sleeping
There is something truly fantastic about sleeping in until noon 10 days in a row.

Top Ramen

Don’t you hate when you pour out too much water from your Top Ramen and then you are stuck with noodles and overpowering powder?

Lesson from break:

Never underestimate what a 9 and an 11-year- old can re-teach you. I’m pretty sure they’re still better at chopping wood than me and one of them can’t even lift the maul…
— Elizabeth
A lot to learn

I thought it was funny when the little kid at the Nike store asked his dad how much a piece of Michael Jordan’s hair would cost.
— Theo
Huh …

As usual, break went by way too fast. I have so much to be thankful for, but also a lot to gripe about. Gripe No. 1: How is Bobby Cowan not a Ray Guy Award finalist?
— Madison
Advent

Happy New Year.
— Vicky
Say aye

All in favor of a six-week winter break, read this Off the Cuff.

Day two back in class:

Is it winter break yet?
— Rhiannon
Stay strong

My heart goes out to the women of Kappa Alpha Theta.
— Britt
I have to come back?

During the break I house/dog sat for some friends in an amazing house. I could definitely get used to my own hot tub every night.

No complaints here

I mapped a route home from campus traversing the least amount of uphill and downhill slopes in preparation for snowy weather, but with the recent climate change I won’t even need it.

Open your eyes

My nephew is 2 and he marvels at everything in the world around him — the plate of food in front of him during dinner, the softness of a cat’s fur and the pictures and words in a book. I wish I could still appreciate everything the way he does and marvel in the everyday occurrences that are taken for granted.
