La navidad

So, when I arrived back from Haiti, so two weeks ago, I arrived to Christmas world. Before I could even put down my bags, my mom took me on a mini tour of the decorations she had put up, mind you, there were still many boxes yet to be unpacked. A few days later, the tree went up. Beautiful, looks like it could belong in a department store. Then an entire mini city complete with nativity scene was constructed at the foot of the tree. The magnets on the fridge have been changed to Christmas, the bath towels, mats, and TOLIET SEAT: Christmas. All surfaces have been covered with either Santa figurines or caroling dolls. The couch pillow covers have been changed to Christmas. Our plates and placemats have been changed to Christmas! It is sooo funny!

I asked my friends if they had a shit ton of decorations, they do not. However, I have been to three different relative's houses now and they too have houses where it looks like Santa Claus has thrown up all over the room. They too have mini cities with lights and a million Santas. So far, the count is at 32 for the number of Santas in my house. They don't have Thanksgiving, so there is nothing to hold them back!! In some stores there have been decorations since before halloween!!

As for other news, this coming week is my last week of classes, and it is the most work I have had here, but literally it is still nothing. 3 page paper, presentation, two final projects, and a final exam coming up. Sounds like a lot but isn't. I can't bring myself to work on it because I know I could do it all in one night if need be...woops.

Can't believe everyone is leaving so soon!! In reality I am not leaving for about a month still, but I know the time is going to fly past. Mom gets here the 11th, once school is over it will just be nonstop fuuuun. I love it here, I am really going to miss it. I also probably wont live to go to Chile, seeing as I am anticipating dying from the cold that I will encounter upon my return. When it gets to low 70's, I get goosebumps, okay? AHH!
