Happy Holidays!

Well, that pretty much wraps it up for 2005 - a very exciting year that took me from a safe, non-demanding student existence in a tranquil midwest town, to a hectic life in the diplomatic circles of the big apple. I love the way life just ships you off to unexpected places and has good surprises waiting for you around the corner - be it a conference in the wonderful city of Montreal, a handsome man at random party, or fabulous roomates in a city full of crazy people. It's been good.

I am off to Norway - to celebrate the holidays with my family and friends in the part of the world where the sun does not shine (literally). Wish all of you the best for the new year - may it be filled with new adventures, good friends, rewarding moments and lots of FUN!
