This is the longest I've ever been away from home and I decided not to go home for the holidays so I could finish up two term papers. Santa made my home alone Christmas so much better by finding the neatest Minnie Mouse bits and bobs pencil box. It has buttons that cause secret compartments to open, a compass in case I get lost, built in pencil sharpeners (which I can never lose!!!) and it contained 3 pencils and an eraser. Santa, you are the bestestestest. All my elementary school dreams have come true!
