Oh, and btw. I am the the throes of finals. Presumably, you are also in the throes of finals. I would guess that this week is not the best time for a Skype chat. And probably next week, too, if your schedule is anything like mine.

On a fairly closely related note, I have talked to inkydu about meeting up over winter break before she heads off to Italy, and we agreed that I shall start a facebook thread about it later in the month when we are all more sure of our plans for the holidays. So that is the update on the farewell hang-out plan. :)
