WOW!! what an impressive and fun list of accomplishments--well done! and you've still got a whole day to go! :)
I can't wait until I'm done getting my Master's and I can start enjoying my vacations off from teaching. The only thing our spring breaks have in common is eating matzoh brei (definitely my favorite part of Passover)!
