It's the hols!

My aunt who's currently living in Germany will be back for two weeks, along with my cousins Erik and Vanessa. Can't wait for their arrival on Thursday! =)

In the meantime, I took out some books from the Monash library. I know, I know. What am I thinking? XD I'm behind in my Law and Comm reading, and here I am happily reading fiction. Oh well.
