Things I Need to do over Christmas Break

1) Relax. It's called a break for a reason, and I won't get a Christmas break this long when I'm in the workforce.
2) Read: There are three books I want to read / finish over Christmas break. One's already half-read. Gilead I'm reading because my Dad is reading Orthodoxy. It's a book exchange of sorts. I know that Neuromancer is supposed to be a groundbreaking science-fiction novel (it's one of the big ones in a genre called cyberpunk, which is generally said to be a science-fiction genre that involves dystopian societies and a noir-esque style). Lastly I will be reading Ayn Rand's Fountainhead, which should be a rather interesting and philosophical work.
3) Play!: I want to hang out with people over break and all that jazz. See some people I don't normally see. It'll be fun.

4) Bring your mother ice water the way she likes it.

watch out for Ayn Rand. She has derailed many a theology student.

Given that her philosophy seems to go towards ethical egoism, and not the kind you might argue Hobbes had...there isn't much chance.
