Christmas Parties

Wow, this has been a good week. I completed my exams by Tuesday and then we had our Christmas party for our floor Wednesday and then a christmas party for the whole building last night.

The floor party was pretty fun. We all made some food, I made lasagna, and there were mashed potatoes, stir fry, soup, garlic rice, and more and some cake for desert. We listened to Christmas music and exchanged gifts. I got this cute little bird that you can clip on to things. Then after all of this all of us, except Harald, went to the pool for a late night swim. Was a lot of fun.

Last night we had a little birthday party for Kate. She just turned 20 and both her and Nathan are leaving on wednesday. Wow everyone is leaving really soon! Nathan made chili for her birthday and Chrissy mad this wonderful cake with circus candy animals on top. Was really tastey.

Then immediately after there was the christmas party up stairs. We now have a christmas tree and christmas lights. I made some chocolate chip cookies and attempted to make turnovers but they didn't turn out that great, the dough was too brittle. But I think both were a big success because now there are none left. Csaba made lots of crepes (I think he said he was aiming to make a hundred!) and there were other goodies. Also christmas music playing. Was a fun party.
