A quick, abbreviated tribute to this semester...

- My amazing a cappella group, Section Line Drive, rocked out! Here's us performing Postcards From Italy by Beirut with solos by Shohei Kobayahsi and me. I love these folks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUwDWCHxqMw  

- I reached record nerd levels by writing my 56-page research paper about a 14-gun brig-sloop in 1800. Frigates!  

- I got a tattoo! I've been planning it for years so don't worry, it was premeditated. Even my mother may start to like it :)

 

- The glorious Janel put up living with me again:

- Goodbyes to friends I won't see for months/a year were hard but super sweet. Literally. These goodbyes involved a gingerbread house dedicated to two of us folks going abroad this spring:

- Got to begin the new year with one of the best friends/people I know: Juliana:

Just the cliff notes because so much awesomeness happened this semester. Seriously, good times man. Good times.
