day 73

Every Tuesday I sit in this lecture hall for an hour and 15 minutes, and often times wonder why I even bother coming. Most of the things we do in lecture are pretty pointless, and I'm pretty sure that none of it will even end up on the final.

As you can see, some of the other people in my class must have thought the same thing - look at all of the empty seats!

day 72

I'm not sure if this picture adequately shows just how depressing this moment was on Monday night.

I've had my Honors seminar every Monday from 4:15-6:15, and normally it's been light out on our walk home. But this was the first Monday since Daylight Savings Time ended, and it was a real shock to leave the basement of the education building and be greeted by a pitch black evening. I'll admit, the extra hour of sleep was nice, but the extra hours of darkness? Not so much!

day 71

On Sunday I got to drive up to Baltimore to see Jack and Don, because Jack's lacrosse team was playing in a tournament there. (that's him, number 23!)

loove beautiful fall days and getting to see family :)

day 70

this picture is the view from my bed, mainly because that's where i spent the majority of my day saturday.

i woke up at the crack of dawn to go to the CYC (on a Saturday!?) for CPR and first aid certification training. I fell back asleep as soon as I got home and then spent the rest of the night in/around my bed! boring, i know.

girl's night in!

this was one of the most fun nights i've had in a while. lots of laughing, bellini's, and dancing (in that order!)

i love these girls!

sorry!!

i'm alive, i'm alive!!

sorry i haven't posted in SO long. i've been snapping pictures everyday, but a combination of being lazy and having an outrageous amount of work this semester has kept me from uploading them. i'll try to be better from here on out!

here comes the updates :)

day 68

10 days ago, I got a great gift from my friend Katlyn! It was a starter set of batter for something called Amish Friendship Bread. It came with a ziplock bag of batter and a directions sheet, which tells you how to let the batter sit for 10 days, adding some ingredients on day 6, and how to bake on day 10!

Today was baking day. The idea behind it is that you multiply your batter by adding certain ingredients, and then you split your batter into 5 parts; 4 parts to put into ziplock bags and give to friends (or keep for yourself to bake again in 10 days!) and one part to add more ingredients to and make into a delicious loaf of bread!

Here's another picture - I wish you could smell how great the kitchen smelled while this thing was baking. mmmm!!
