Hola all!

TGIF! For starters. It’s been a while since I’ve blogged. Sheesh, last time I wrote on this here blog I was talking about ice climbing! It’s gotten a little too warm to do that!

Speaking of which, what a sunny day today was. The spring break came and went, we had some cold days sporadically throughout, but today was a wake up call from Spring itself. Now I really shouldn’t be too hasty with this “goodbye cold” attitude, because this weekend isn’t predicted to be too spectacular: rain, rain and more rain. However, you could see the spirits of us college students perk right up. So many people were running around on Old Main Quad, playing frisbee, running after each other or just lounging on the grass with some friends, chatting it up and catching some good ol’ vitamin D. Hey, studies show that most of North America doesn’t get enough Vitamin D, even if we are out in the sun, we may not be getting enough. So perhaps think about purchasing those Vitamin D pills? I know my mamma has forced a bottle upon me to bring back to campus once spring break ceased. Eh- I don’t mind. I need to be more consistent with my vitamin intake, that’s for sure.

Well this week has been a rude awakening. The word on the street once everyone returned from our one week of freedom was the same: break wasn’t long enough.  I’d have to agree. It wasn’t long enough, but hey, we have to be thankful with what we’re given, ey? I’m just glad it’s friday, because I have much to look forward to. Tonight I’m hanging out with this lovely gal Marlea Ligouri, who is going to be graduating at this semester’s end. She will be sorely missed by all us Student Ambassadors who work with her. So tonight I’m going to her suite to play board games and such. I’m such an easy person to please-  sit down with me and play cards or a board game and I’m happy as can be.  After that, there is our performance of Midnight Theatre which I’m excited for. I have a strong sense that tonight I’m going to laugh hard and in good company. So, can’t complain there. I’m charging my camera as I type this!

And tomorrow is an a cappella extravaganza! Us Sexy Pitches, Absolute A Cappella, and three other a cappella groups from 2 different schools are coming here to perform! The event is coined  “Guilty Measures.” Aw good play on words. So you should definitely come out to hear some good singing, have some fun, and the best part is, IT’S FREE!!!!!!!! How often can one say that? It’s at 8pm in McKenna theatre, and I don’t think you want to miss it. I’m kinda sad that my parents nor my brother can attend. Actually, my best friend and my roommate can’t make it either, ah, but alas, they can’t come to it all…they have lives too. It will be loads of fun, so you should come and have loads of fun with us….der! Then on Sunday I’m going to see a performance on campus of The Last 5 Years, with 2 of my friends cast in the only roles. It’s a good musical by Jason Robert Brown. It was completely student run, directed, stage managed, etc. etc. Then I gots a staff meeting and such Sunday night. Sooo…fun packed weekend right?

However, I have this looming cloud overhead reminding me of the much needed homework that needs to be completed by Monday. Ick, ick, double ick. So I’m gonna have to try to manage my time well this weekend. And this night seems quite shot….so tomorrow will have to be devouted to homework for at least a couple of hours. Oh time management is the most valued skill, I feel, here at college. Learn it well, and your life will be less stressful. Yeah, well, it’s a hard skill to master…most of us are still a working progress.

At any rate, I hope to report back to you with fun-loving pictures and such of the events I breifly touched upon. Have a lovely weekend in advance and you’ll hear from me soon.

xoxo,

Kristen
