I made two A's and one A-. Not bad, but grad student grades are a bit different; a B is grounds for alarm and below a B is failing.

I visited Mum last week, and got to spend some time with my brother. Mum is recovering from bronchitis, so I helped her with her shopping. It's nice to have the ability to spend more time with her now that I'm a full-time student.

We went down to Sid's for her annual Yule dinner; a great time was had by all, as usual. Good friends and good food.

Unfortunately, I now have a cold and a massive sore throat. I plan on massive amounts of sleeping to get over the thing. Ewww, snot is gross!
