Well yes, it would seem I have been bitten. Bitten by the Christmas spirit.
I went to my first Christmas party of the season/there was a birthday cake for me (thank you fellow teammates) as well as a surprise birthday gift from my bud. Then there was secret santa, and my team knows me so dang well that I got the most beautiful shirt and mug, as well as a Starbucks card which for a university student is basically a lifeline.
But the best part was that among the wondrous happenings of Christmas festivities, I sat down and had a philosophical chat with a girl from my team. A seriously philosophical chat. We talked about God, and identity and racism, and she is such an intelligent and truly beautiful girl from the inside out. I learned a bit about her heart, and because we are so different in so many ways, it opened my eyes to the prejudice that she feels on a regular basis for being the sexual orientation that she is. She is so incredible.
But I digress. It was fantastic to chat about something that matters, especially in such a materialistic season, and talk about the real reason for the season, aka, the Big Man Up Top and His Son Jesus. ( I wasn't sure what the capitalization on the last sentence was, it is a noun, but I don't think anyone has ever used that formally hahaha)
It was the best day I had in a long time, and I am so ready for the last class of my first semester of university tomorrow. Where has the time gone? Seriously.
Sleep is long overdue,
yours in the Christmas Spirit,
UBC Panties.
