This winter break, I was lucky enough to not have much to do. I was able to just hang out and spend a lot of much needed time with my mom and my three younger sisters. It was an uneventful break, but it was peaceful and relaxing, which is something that I didn’t realize that I needed after a long and difficult semester. I spent a lot of time decorating our house for Christmas, as my mom just moved into a much bigger house, and she was so excited about all of the extra space to decorate with. This Christmas, my mom hosted our family’s Christmas dinner for the first time since I was really little. So we cooked a huge meal for most of my family and it was so much fun having them all over. My sisters and I also spent a lot of time baking because we all love to have a bunch of yummy treats around the holidays. When break was over, I was disappointed that I had to leave my family, but I was also excited for the semester ahead of me!
