I think by now everyone has left Etna for the year. I left around 6:30 last night and the only one left was Hassan (who happened to be passed out at the time). I’m pretty sure he left sometime last night, and with that, our house is closed down for the holidays. As the title to this post indicates, everyone leaving reminded me a bit of Agatha Christie’s “And Then There Were None.” From Tuesday onwards, the house emptied one person at a time, slowly but surely.

It’s going to be weird not seeing some of my best friends for the next month after I’ve gotten used to spending most of my time with them over the last semester. I will get to spend a lot of time with my family and my high school friends, so I’m sure break will still be good.

I guess all I really wanted to do here was wish everyone a happy holidays. Have a relaxing holiday break and enjoy the time with your families and friends!
