Hello Rain

Greetings from a wet, dark Saturday afternoon in Upland!

The weather really has been a lot better recently, but this weekend, it decided it should rain. Oh well—I love the smell of rain.
This weekend has been a bit busy for me—I have homework out the wazoo (Paper and test on Monday, speech on Tuesday, test on Thursday, paper on Friday). I’ve been chipping away at it slowly, but still have lots left to do. I enjoyed a lacrosse game with one of the girl’s on my wing this morning, and then watched a few track events at our home meet today to cheer on some friends. Now I’m back to hitting the books (and I think they’re winning).

Last night, Laura and I ushered for the play “Crimes of the Heart” so that we could get free tickets to take some friends next weekend. Technically, we watched the whole show last night, and we decided that ushering is a good way to watch a play for free. We’re planning on helping out more in the future=)

Tomorrow, we’re having a Bro/Sis Wing cookout with our brother wing. That should be fun. The next weekend, Megan and I are racing in Taylor’s Taylathon Bike Race. We’re secretly hoping for a few scars from it…The weekend after that, Megan and I are heading up to Grand Rapids to run in the Fifth Third River Bank 5k. It’ll be good to get away a bit before finals.
Well, I am all registered for classes for next semester—looks like I will be taking Principles of Genetics, College Chemistry, Foundations of Psychology, Intermediate Spanish, and Lifeguard Training. Also, I will be an official member of the equestrian team!

I know this was short—but unfortunately, I still have that mountain of papers to start going through. I know it’ll be over before I know it, but for now, I’m just gonna keep living one day at a time.

Enjoy this springtime!
