Time

Time.  There's NEVER enough of it and it seems to pass away faster or slower than our time-measuring devices can even keep track.

13 days until Christmas, 17 until my birthday

322 hours until midnight on Christmas Eve

19330 minutes +/-

1160100 odd seconds +/-

Yesterday, I spent my last two hours in lectures in my native language until August.
Isn't that a scary thought?

I will leave for Chile in 58 days and be there in 59.
I can't even apply for my visa for another 30 days!

I'm excited and nervous, but also sad.  My time with my Grantham friends has slipped away.  No one does anything fun with the threat of finals in the air.  Come Wednesday, however, I'm as free as a bird until February and I cannot wait to lavish in my time with family and friends without deadlines looming over my head!

Oh, finals, please be done.
