some socializings


in no particular order, these events occurred over this break

1) the monday after newyears we had a shitton of people over for brunch. It was fun but exhausting (to the point that I fell asleep after everyone left). Since most places (if not all) where closed the day before, we had to go get food that morning. Plus there were six people on my side of the room at all times (I'm sharing with Sima.) Laying in my bed, lying under my bed trying to get the kitten out, standing around. Not Yosef's room. Not the entire room. My side of the room. I made 31 eggs worth of omelet. 'nuff said.

2) Went skiing at Sunday River. Left on the 23rd, skied 24-27th, left 27th. Interesting thing about skiing on Christmas Eve and Day; there are barely any lines. There is barely any English. There is a lot of Russian and Chinese and a bit of Hebrew. (notice this every year)



As soon as Christmas was over however, there were as many English-speakers in one line as there had been on the entire mountain the day before.

3) Met up with Max T yesterday at Central Sq, got some of my art supplies for drawing next semester, drank 'Aztec cocoa' at Clear Conscience Cafe (yeah, that exists)

4) and with Kristen the day before in Newton Centre, ate at Johnny's Luncheonette.

5) and at some point Karen came over to my house and we made gingerbread cookies, but hen it turned out that they have to be frozen so she didn't get any, which I still feel bad about. Half the batter is still in the fridge, but it's unlikely we can meet up again because of her class/work schedule.

6) and Sabina came over yesterday as well, and she dropped me off at the train station.

7) and the Innka and co. came over at some point too.

8) and I met up with Yulka on the 17th. I know this because she was going to come over the day before (late at night) but couldn't because it snowed, and I was afraid we wouldn't be able to say goodbye. But we did, at Black Bean on Park St.

9) I also hung out with Kostya before he left for McGill, first in Brooklyn where we had shitty "Vietnamese" food, and then went to Central Sq and then to his (mom's) house, which is when Valya and Chris Yulka at Sweet Tart in Newton Centre.

10) and before that I met with the same three people at, once again, Black Seed on Park St. Valya was going to go skiing, but then the Zamboni machine broke so Chris walked around carrying their ice skates. Yulka got out early from her jury duty because she was leaving for Amsterdam, and both the current cases required her to come up another day.

11) also came by Yulka's house a couple of times, or more.
