Today i began my day by going to breakfast at Perkins with my friend Watchen, Eve and Sumie. After that we hung out at the mall for while and did some much needed Christmas shopping. My goal was to find an outfit for my friend's 21st birthday party, which she is having in Minneapolis at Club Seven during Christmas break. I didnt find anything that caught my eye but I did find some really warm and cute boots. After we got back to campus I went to the Library to focus on and complete my ten page paper that I had been putting off. I got sidetracked for a while after my mom called me and told me her plans for us during break. She wants us to go and see a new movie about football called "Blindside" and to a Christmas concert. She also asked me how my classes were coming along and I told her that everything was going well although I have a ton of homework and a bit stressed. After completing two pages of my ten page paper, I went down to the Intercultural center, where my friend Toki asked me if she could sketch a portrait of me for her art final. I was hesitant at first, but then I decided to go along with it because I needed a break from work anyway. After she sketched my face, I went to the port to grab a latte and went back to be sketched. After that was done, I went to my friend LaCora's apartment to see what everyone was up to and ended up making dinner for 8 people!
