great weekend

I hope everyone had a good weekend. Mine was full of weird shit, and homework, like usual. So Friday I went to Brians parent’s house and we had dinner over there, which was great. PK’s pizza is the best! We played fun card games too, and it was just great fun. On Saturday I had a lacrosse game that was 2 hours away and it was at 12, so we had to leave at 9 in the morning. We got there, and no one was there! The gate was locked and the field was empty. We called the coach of the other team; turns out she cancelled the game because of the frost last night at 6. She only called one person, and they didn’t even answer their phone, so no one knew that the game was cancelled. So we stayed there and practiced and then got kicked off of the field. Not a fun day. Later that day, I went home for dinner, and my dad just got a new grill and we had steaks that night; they were delicious! After we ate there, Brian and I went to Maggie moos for some ice cream with our friends. We get there and there are major douche-bags there. They were one some sort of drugs, like steroids and I think they were drunk. Anyway, we get there and we over hear a guy say, “Dude, we’ll give you 5 bucks if you do it.” So the guy that was working at the time was Dom, he’s so cool, heard that too and was ready for shit to go down. So one of the guys goes to the bathroom, comes out and steals a cake!!! Dom freaks out and starts chasing him out the door. It was great, and Dom got the cake back. It was so intense; I guess you would have had to be there. After that Band I go back to the dorm, on the way back I get pulled over by a cop! Ugh, he tells me that my license registration expired in august of 2009! Ha, so it’s all good. It was a bit scary, but it ain’t no thang. So that was my weekend

So last week was Saint Patrick’s Day, I hope everyone enjoyed their green beer! I didn’t do much because I had a huge physics test on Friday, which was not fun at all! I was stuck studying for that, I’m not even sure if my studying does much. I was so mad when I had to study for physics and Friday’s weather was sooo nice! I’m so glad spring is finally here, I got to go home and grab all my shorts and it’s great! So this weekend I went home and had corned beef and cabbage! I love St. Patrick’s Day food, it’s the best! It was died green, but cabbage is green! We also had cornbread, which is amazing! I love going home for a good meal. The food on campus is great, but nothing beats eating with the family. I especially love Owens breakfast on Sundays; it’s soo good!
So am I the only one that thinks this semester went by way too fast!? Compared to last semester, this one is going by fast. I don’t know if anyone else feels this way, but it’s got to be true. We are already more than half way through this semester, and then it’s summer! I’m not sure how good my summer is going to be because all the friends I made are going to leave, and then I’ll be alone. It’s so sad. But then when school starts again, everyone will come back, and I’ll be in my apartment and I will totally (somewhat) be on my own. It’s kinda scary to think about, you know, living on your own. I’m really excited about it, but at the same time I’m scared. I know my parents will still be like right around the corner, but it’s still weird. It’s like I was waiting for this to happen and now that it is happening, it’s scary!
Well, until next time,
Melissa

SPRING!

Spring break! I hope everyone had a good break, I know I did! On Monday I went to Richmond with Brian and had a great time. I went there to go shopping but I didn’t find too many things. I loved all the shops there, but it seemed like they still had their winter stuff out, and I was looking for spring things. I went to H&M, which is the best store ever, and they had nothing. I was looking forward to finding a really cute dress and maybe some skirts, but nope; they still had all their winter stuff out. I went to the zoo too! It was a very sketchy zoo though. They had the cheetahs right next to the zebras; who does that? The cheetah really wanted that zebra too. They had huge tortoises, and a lot of monkeys. The one part that was the best was when we were talking to the macaws. We would say hello and they would say it back, and one even whistled at us! Another fun part was watching the penguins eat, they were so cute. They were also very picky, once that fish hit the ground, they wouldn’t eat it! They were definitely spoiled. It was a lot of fun, and I can’t wait until summer where I can go on vacation a lot more. Can you believe that we only have 6 more weeks left of school?! My parents brought it to my attention and it really freaked me out. We are almost done with a quarter of our college careers! What the hell!? I don’t know about you guys, but that’s really scary. We are growing up way too fast.
Okay, one other thing before I go, no one in my physics class wants to sit next to me. I don’t understand it. I feel really lame because no one ever wants to sit near me. Right now there are two seats to my left and two to my right. Ugh! OH, someone just sat down, so one to my right now. That feels a little better.
Until next time,
Melissa
