The Winter Break

HEY LOOK WHAT I FOUND! I never finished it. but I enjoy it.... And at a such an interesting time to find it too. =]=]=]


So this winter break has probably been one of the best winter breaks EVER. I was able to hang out with basically everyone I wanted to and I did many really crazy things that made me happy.


As I said earlier, i started break at the convent which was pretty awesome. I spent some time in the back storage room fixing boxes of Lebanese sweets and I realized how small that room is. When i was little, i thought that place was huge. But its still scary back there, not as much as it was when i was little, but its still a little bit creepy. I still somewhat expect to see a nun in her habit pop out from behind the cases of Coca cola [[glass bottles of course]] and hit me with a giant crucifix or atleast say OOGA BOOGA! Ahh. the memories of being fed raw kibbee without my knowledge of what it was, pulling apart parsely with a few guamanian and irish nuns, eating chocolate from one of the cooks from germany, and finally being able to reach the ice cream and being able to get the lids off of the glass coke bottles. many memories in the convent kitchen.

Then of course there all the other memories. I was given a plastic fisher price bike [[with training wheels]] and I rode it around the halls and delivered messages between the sisters working in the office. I would get chocolate in Sister Mary Andrew's office, say hi to Bluey, the carved bluebird in Sister Mary Hugh's office [[a few years ago she gave Bluey to me]] and then to Sister Michel's office where I would hang around and watch her play solitare on the computer.
