Tonight was GNT's last gathering of the semester, a pretty large Christmas party (~ 50-60 people), in which we had a pretty large "White Elephant" gift exchange going on. Once again, my gift was the source of laughs, as, at Nate's suggestion, I put my gift in a big box, and then filled it with peanuts before wrapping it. The girl who initially opened the box was so energetic with the peanuts, the CD inside got thrown out into the air without her even realizing it. For a minute, she thought she had an empty box until the CD could be passed back around.

All in all, it was a blast, as has been the semester, academically, socially, and spiritually. The courses went fine, I got to know lots of people (probably in the neighborhood of 50 or more if I don't hold myself to actually remembering their names), and there sure was some spiritual kick.

Time to go home for now.
