Happy 2011 !!

As is customary around this time of year, I made a few new year’s resolutions. One of which was to update my blog more regularly. Seeing as how it is now January 25, you now know why I don’t typically make resolutions… Regardless – here’s what I’ve been up to!

Christmas came and went. I celebrated a few times with friends from work and friends from church. It was sad not being home with my family, but being able to open presents on skype and see everyone at home made it a lot easier!

January has been rather boring. I haven’t taken any trips or done anything exciting. The first semester of school has officially finished, and I now have a four week break. By ‘break’, I mean I don’t have any students to teach, but I still have to go to my office to do work. By ‘work’, I mean try to break my record of beating Spider Solitaire with 4 suits twice in a row.

Lucky for me, I only have to do this laborious work for two weeks and then my family comes! My mom, dad, grandmother, and brother are coming to visit, and I couldn't be more excited! Our itinerary includes: Izmir (5 days), Istanbul (1 day), Athens (2 days), and Paris (3 days). My family will then continue on to visit my grandmother's family in the south of France, but sadly, I have to return here to teach. It'll be a jam-packed 10 days - but I can't wait! If you want to check out our adventure, I made a little wiki to outline some of the things we plan to do. It's not much, but it's a neat little website. The Biler European Adventure


I fully intend on having a new post within a week. If not, feel free to send guilt e-mails until I do :)
