Thanksgiving is probably *the* major holiday of Americans. I hadn't realized that, but at the beginning of the week already, campus started to feel less crowded than usual. People were flying home, to wherever that was. On Wednesday, only a handful of people showed up for class. We woke up really early on Thursday however, to do the drive up to C's mom. We got a good headstart and thus didn't run into any bad traffic on the way. Made it in just within five hours, with a little stop at a fruit stand for a snack. All of C's siblings were there for Thanksgiving this year. That's a lot of people!
It was mostly uneventful. We had lots of good food, of course. I was not feeling very sociable though, frankly I was too absorbed by the upcoming finals. I spent all Friday for instance reading Silberschatz's Operating System Concepts. I was almost glad when we took off today, so that I could continue to work on our Nachos project 3 and the Python programming assignment and prepare for the quiz on decorators and write up the homework about network file systems for operating systems. I don't think I will be really able to relax until this quarter is completely over ...
