Holiday Fun


As of today we have complete most of our final assignments, including: four final presentations, two final papers, three final exams, and one herbarium. It has been a stressful past few weeks, but with one final left we have almost finished this semester. It does not feel like we have been here since September. As a way to get everyone together and take a break from studying we organized a holiday secret santa, so that everyone had to buy a gift for someone else in the program. Amazingly we all managed to keep it a secret from most of the group. This afternoon after we all finished our experimental design final we gathered at the Vernon house for some baked goods and presents. We went around and opened them so that everyone saw what was given. The gifts included great dive gifts, pets, warm weather clothes, and helpful things for Panama. It was a great break from the studying, and was great to see everyone together before we split up for winter break. Tomorrow we have our last final in Botany and then we move out of these houses to meet up again soon in Panama. This semester has gone by really fast.
