Holiday Season
Ahhh...the holiday season is finally here. I had a restful Thanksgiving break. Four days actually felt like a decent amount of time. It was like a mini vacation!
As usual, my family didn't celebrate Thanksgiving. We did have a special dinner though--my parents cooked one of my all time favorites (I forget/don't know what it's called in English). I only get to eat it once or twice every year in the winter (because no one else in the family is that fond of it), so it was good. :)
My sister and I went out for shopping on Black Friday. The malls were crowded. It was the first time I could remember that the malls were open at midnight. Anyway, I learned from long ago that it wasn't worth it to wake up before dawn and try to beat the crowd for free cookies or $5 coupons, so I just started my day around 9:30 am. We didn't find any "exceptional" deals, so we ended up not buying much. (Well, we did buy a $10 hand vacuum, which was a pretty decent deal.)
I spent most of the Thanksgiving break watching videos. No coding at all. It felt good to step away from my usual routines once in a while to do something different. I finally read the first chapter of my Wheelock's Latin textbook and made some sense out of it. 39 more chapters to go...
