A friend I met back in elementary school got back in touch with me and its made me realize how a lot of the people I kept in touch with from then all the way to highschool that I barely know anything about now that were both in our 30s. No one prepared me for how friendships tend to work throughout your life. Some people you know as kids but barely hear anything from as adults, some you keep close from cradle to grave and some you know for a few years and everyone just splits.

Going to see some extended family soon

Looking forward to it, especially for meeting some new members :)

In the middle of assignment submissions. Last date for submission is 30 December. I still have 2 left. Feeling fed up.

It's been decent. Christmas is on track to being much better than Thanksgiving, though you can never be sure.

Two friends of mine volunteered to be Saint Nicholas/Santa/whatever (the male friend) and the Easter bunny/mouse/whatever (the female friend) respectively for a Christmas event (TIL it's actually normal for the Easter Bunny to be female, I always thought it was Peter Cottontail) like they do every year. Now it's downhill from here.

It's also been a very warm Christmas this year.
