I am ready to come home to my love of my life and be with my family for christmas. i went to church with Brooke and Jana where we fika'ed for an hour afterwards in the church basement. then went sledding with my amazing roommate and Jana!

School is in high gear, (well kind of) and I am busy playing basketball and planning ...

... will be the start of something beautiful, Pari will be here to pick me up to tour me around Sundsvall as well as buy me a desk and room décor from the thrift store. I'll be registering and then participating in student intro activities, life will begin to go fast again. But for this evening, I've stopped the flying and pulling of luggage and catching the trains.
