Study Break!

So in preparation for exams, my floor mate Alicia (that's her hand in the photo) and I are at Hillel (the Jewish Student Center) studying. They're serving tea, hot chocolate, free food (we just got offered M&M's by Dan, our friend here at Hillel) and free massages!  Tents have also been set up outside of the library and hammocks are hung up amongst the many palms for sporadic napping- the perfect environment for study-intensive hours in my opinion.

Earlier tonight we spent a few minutes down in the lobby of Hecht, where Dr. Whitely read The Polar Express (which is traditionally done with her daughter Megan).  Hot chocolate and freshly baked gingerbread cookies followed.  In fact, each day of this week there is free food as a part of the study break 'movement'.  Everyone needs a break every once in a while.

Speaking of break, mine's up- wish me luck!
