just to clarify, it is very cold in arizona. people keep asking me if it's nice and warm here, but it's winter. i'm freezing! our winters aren't warmer, just shorter. by march, we should be busting out the shorts and light jackets again. it's amazing how quickly time flies. i had looked forward to 2007 for so long, and now it's nearly over! it has been wonderful though. my last semester in college was so much fun, which included spring break in mexico with good friends, and of course graduation. i hope everybody had a great christmas. i spent it here in tucson with my mom and brother. it was quiet and cozy with just the three of us and cody. we had steak, ham, mashed potatoes, mac 'n cheese, garlic bread, and poached pear with toasted pecan ice cream. it did feel very weird without my dad at the table. i really miss him. he called during dinner, so we got to talk for a bit. my mom's leaving in the beginning of january, and she won't be back anytime soon. i think she and my dad will return some time around mid-september. jeez that sounds so far from now. with a big empty house all to myself, i'm really lonely. if u're in the area, come visit!

My mom and brother flew into JFK on Christmas Day, spending the holidays with me in Queens with my aunt and uncle. Most of the days were low key, just chillin at home, watching some TV, renting movies, eating good home cooked food... It's not like my mom and brother were visiting New York city for the first time anyway. We just wanted to be together, because we see each other probably once every year for a few days at a time. Ihaven't seen my dad since Labor Day 2007. I took my loved ones around Washington Square Park, where my campus is, Union Dquare for some shopping, Times Square (there are lots of squares), and different restaurants in downtown and midtown. My brother and I we...
