i'm serious about the long emails...

So I like to write long emails to friends. And I'm serious when I say I write long emails. Like for the last year on a daily basis my college roomie and I have been emailing back and forth, and these aren't just a few sentences, I'm talking paragraphs upon paragraphs. We always joke that we write books to each other and so after writing an email to her yesterday I saw how long it was so I decided to word count it... 2006 words. And while that one was unusually long, my normal emails are quite long about 1000-1200 words, and this isn't just to amy, it is to my loves, berries, family, other friends... so if you ever email me, chances are you'll get a book back.

I got the best mail in the world today! Last week was Head of the Charles in Boston and as I was obviously not there I got the next best thing in the mail. A postcard from MARY WHIPPLE!! My rowing idol. She is the coxswain of the US women's 8 and I love her. The postcard said - Wish you were here! Have a pint for me! - You don't know hoooow excited I am! Too bad I didn't get to meet her, but I have emailed back and forth with her over a rowing project in college.

Winter is here :( I don't like it. I pulled out all the coats and sweaters out of the closet. Luckily we aren't getting snow here though, and we rarely get snow here in Cork. They got a few inches at home on Tuesday.

My conferring is 10 December! YAY! I'll officially be a Master then. Have to finish planning my parents visit, as I now know when graduation is, so I can plan everything else.

I had more I was thinking about but now I can't remember. It was random stuff anyway.
Happy Wednesday!
