Beginning of 2012

My 2011 wrapped up with an excellent holidays. Christmas was full of family, and I enjoyed all the gifts I recieved, with perhaps a sleeping mask being my favorite. New Year's was a quiet one spent with mom, and a busy, loud 2012 is on the horizon for me.

Straight from winter to summer, I write this update from Auckland, New Zealand. This is my first overseas visit! The country has been incredible so far, and work may be here. Definitely a new chapter in my life, and study abroad could be a part of it.

Setting up a visit to University of Auckland next week. Bring a little American art to the kiwis!
