Three days of (almost) total isolation in Logan...

I'm really putting forth a valiant effort to be sad and lonely ... but honestly, it's been pretty fun to just have time to myself to reflect on... absolutely nothing!
I do have to brag, though... I made sushi at about 2:00 am on Monday, and it was awesome. Here are pictures. It was my first attempt, and I'm a little impressed by myself!
I actually decided to try something new, even on my first try. I did half brown rice and half sushi rice, and surprisingly it held together well!
Aside from my culinary experiments, I've been able to take it easy and rejuvenate. Oh, and I actually got out last night. I watched a movie with Garrett, then went to dinner with Jon, Ben, Angella, and a new Russian girl named Svetlana (and she's gorgeous and soooo nice!), then went back to Garrett's and watched The Mothman Prophecies. Freaky, freaky movie! I had a difficult time coming home to an empty apartment... hahaha.
So now here's the big debate... I can go back to Roy or Salt Lake when I turn in the on-call phone tonight, drive to Roosevelt to be with my sisters, or I can stay in Logan and probably spend New Years' Eve with G or Jon and Ben. I have some pretty good options, and I'm not sure which to choose. All I know is that I'm excited for this new year to come... I've been waiting 20 years for it!
Oh, and updates on preparing for MCV - I'm down to 150, which is good considering I've been gorging myself on chocolates and other holiday treats. I'm right between a 9 and 7 right now, so wish me luck in the next three weeks!
