Here are some very important life goals I managed to achieve as winter break drew to a close this year:
-
Got my permit so I can finally start driving. I’d forgotten that lines at government offices could grow so long… I also learned that a permit was a flimsy piece of paper and not a solid ID card like I’d thought (guess I’ll have to apply for the ID separately…)
- Stuffed my backpack completely to the brim with 13 books, the majority of them hardcover. It now resembles a cube more than a backpack-shaped container. Whoo!
- Ate hedgehogs. Not literally. These are traditional Chinese meatballs covered in rice, to be completely honest. Absolutely delicious and very cute!
- Made only 1 New Year’s Resolution: To eat a bit of everything my mom cooked and put on this table. No obsessive list-making for me this year!
- Seen snow. In sunny San Diego! Granted, it was 3000-4000 feet up high in the mountains, but it still counts!
That’s all for now. Happy end-of-2014, everyone! Till next time!
