Since this is my first secret santa, I was pretty bummed that my original match ditched on me. I've heard that people don't always get rematched, which is fine. The joy of my secret giftee was enough for me.

But then, out of the darkness, comes an extraordinary rematcher! She really went above and beyond to see what I liked. After a bummer of a holiday break, I returned to early to write my thesis and found these lovely presents awaiting me!

Really, Secret Santa, if you are reading this, thank you very much. Your gifts uplifted my spirit (and gave me the motivation/caffeine to keep working hard on my thesis)!

PS: Pardon my dumb faces. I was super excited.
