Rewind & Review #75

Created by Shae Has Left the Room.

~I played Wise Man #3 in a Christmas pageant out at the equine center. It was super cold, but great fun. 

~Thank the Lord I only had one exam (but also a history paper, final creative nonfiction article, and a 75-page fiction portfolio).

~I'm home again! For only three days total until I leave again, lol. I'm going back to Chicago to visit friends!
