You've got (snail) Mail

Yeah, I know I ripped off the movie title but it's appropriate.

When I was back at Christmas my Aunt said that she had mailed me a package and had I got it before I left. I hadn't but didn't think anything of it. I figured that it would be here when I got back in January. When I first got here it wasn't but still I didn't think anything about it. Cause it takes a while for mail to get here. At the end of January it still wasn't here so I figured that it had got lost somewhere along the way. Then today came.

I only check my mail about once a week or so cause I very rarely get snail mail. They said that I had a package. I figured my parents had sent a Valentines package and that with the silly customs it was late getting here.

To my surprise it wasn't from my parents but the 'lost' Christmas package. So now I have lots of Hersey Kisses including the big family size bag of caramel Kisses which are my favorite. It arrived at a good time cause I have a paper and another assignment due on Monday and a 2500 word paper discussing weather or not Australia needs a Bill of Rights. That one is due in a week and a half. I'm going to be living on chocolate and caffeine for the next month and a half until exams are over. It's going to prove interesting because I am trying to give up junk food for Lent. I figure that the candies have lasted until the middle of March they can last another 3 weeks until Easter. I'll just have to put them away and try to forget where I put them. I said TRY! Or else I'll just have to add an extra couple of spinning classes. We'll have to wait and see how things play out.

Thank you to my Aunt, Uncle and Cousin for sending them. No matter when they get ate I will enjoy them. Thank you guys.
