Christmas Break!!!

  I refuse to call this wonderful two-week hiatus from school a "winter break" with the same resolve that keeps me from calling a Christmas tree a "holiday tree". For those intent on erasing any remnant of spirituality from our country's traditions, "holiday" is still translated into "holy day".   :p

Christmas "Break" Academic To-do List:

• Algebra II exam
• SEU essay
• Satire for AP Literature
• AP Lit. philosophy book pg.68-130 (about 3.5 pages per day)
• AP microeconomics powerpoint
• AP Art paintings

Recreation

• NAHS scrapbook
• Scrapbooking (mine has not been touched since 8th grade!)
• Sketching and photography, teaching my little cousins art
• Shopping for and wrapping Christmas presents
• heating and icing hamstring/groin pull, no running until Christmas
• swimming, strength training, leisurely walks

God bless you during this Christmas and New Year!
