It's beginning to look alot like December

I have to say I'm happy to see November go bye bye. November was a great month, but it was a long month. I didn't think it would ever really end. There was so much going on in November that I just really couldn't pack more into the month. The month is always a busy one because of SRMUN and the work we need to complete leading up to the conference as well as the plans that need to be made for everything else. Real life seems to fade away during SRMUN. We're sealed into our hotel for those days and very seldom do we get out of the hotel for anything other than a quick bite to eat or emergency supply run. Oh but it is so very much fun, at least in the opinion of a poli sci nerd :)  I mean who doesn't love doing simulations of the United Nations?!? They are not only super fun, but they are also super informative! Plus I get to spend five days with the best group of people on the planet! My SRMUN friends/family are truly incredible. We've gone through some rough patches together over the last 12 months and I couldn't have asked for a more incredible group of people to go through the tough times alongside.

All the awesome aside, I'm still happy to see November go because now we are in December and that can only mean one thing - CHRISTMAS!!!!!! Seriously who doesn't love Christmas time!?! For a few short weeks people are a little nicer and everything is  dripping in lights and decorations and oh heck yes I love it all! I love Christmas and all the trimmings which come with it because it was the one season my dad was all about and anything that makes my dad exited is just awesome. Plus when living far away Christmas usually meant we got to see family back home and for the space of a few days we got to spend some quality time with one another. Christmas has always been a big thing for our family and this year I'm super excited to decorate my house for the first time. It's really just a beautiful time in my opinion at least. So farewell November and HELLO DECEMBER!!!!!!!! :)
