Sharmilee is a first year medical student who'd never made cookies before.

Lilian with Ellie and Lydia at our international Christmas celebration

It's called "blow pong." The goal of the game is to blow the ball off the sides of the table and keep the other teams from blowing it off your side. We were divided by nationality and somehow the Americans had enough hot air to keep the ball well away from their edge. :P

Ropa, aspiring model, strikes a dramatic pose...

Lilian (Zimbabwe) and I at the Christmas party for people who miss their families...

Merry Christmas! I miss you all!

For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of his government and of peace
there will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
with justice and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of Hosts will do this.

Isaiah 9:6-7
