So, now Christmas break has finally started. All my finals are over, and I just feel GREAT to be honest. I've had time to do things like rearrange my room, do some super-cleaning, and just enjoy things like butternut squash soup in a sourdough bread bowl at atlanta bread company. Yum. Yes, Peter Pan is still going on, but it is so non-stressful that it's not even funny. It's just fun!
My project as of late has been to re-decorate my room. I'm going for an Indian-inspired, sumptuous, silky, romantic feel. I bought some sari fabric from Joann's, a teal, olive, gold, and orange silky/satiny type of fabric with gold embossed designs, and I'm going to drape them on my walls. I actually just rearranged everything and it already feels more "zen." I got a small lamp, flowers, and tealight candles, too, and it is starting to actually look like a bedroom. My room was kind of haphazardly thrown together before, and now it actually looks nice. I am proud. I still haven't put up the fabric though, which is probably the defining factor of my decorating, because I still have to hem the edges, but when I do there will definitely be pictures! So yeah, I'm definitely excited about having a nice sanctuary instead of a dumping ground for my stuff. =]
For the first time in awhile, I'm actually feeling Christmas this year. Last year it came upon so suddenly that it didn't even feel like Christmas to me for some reason. But this year I am really enjoying it. I've been listening to Relient K's Christmas album alot, and just feeling festive! So that is good. I'm excited to go home, even though I can't go until Christmas eve because of Peter Pan. But it will be nice to just chill out with family and get out of Columbus for a bit. Things here have been a bit awkward as of late, but it has cleared up mostly. I think that a break from the theatre department, however, is very much needed for many, including myself! I'm excited for the new semester, too- new classes that will be lots of fun! But for now, I'm taking my sweet time to relax, decorate my room, and make presents!
On another note- I'm seriously drooling over these anthropologie necklaces:
Too bad they are ridiculously priced. Ugh. Oh, to have money...
