Sorry for the abandonment - I know it's been a while. I've been busy, really! But since it's been a while, I thought I would share some things with you.
Last week was my spring break, and I really let myself go. It's really amazing how fast things can go downhill in just a week. When I got back to school I made it my goal to work out hard and watch what I ate (so tough with all the goodies I brought back from home!) Yesterday was only Tuesday, and I already failed. During spring break my neighbor, Snooks, had nabbed some Applebee's gift cards from her mom and she wanted to go out for half off appetizers. Honestly, I really didn't want to go. I had just eaten (Taco Tuesday!) and I had a Spanish test to study for. But Snooks and Annie sang me a song (Let Me Take You Out). And they danced. How could I say no to that? So picture this, four relatively small girls at one booth, with FIVE plates of appetizers in front of them. That was us. And we ate it all - plus a round of brownie bites. Thanks for that guys.
I was so uncomfortably full last night, I couldn't sleep. That, and the dog (?) someone has been housing in their dorm room was barking uncontrollably. Yes, a dog in the dorms.
This morning was absolutely awful - slippery snow everywhere! I honestly almost slipped to death about 15 times on the way to class. I just about turned around and went back to bed.
On the bright side, my first column ran in the Minnesota Daily today! My very first publication! It's a learning process, and I only hope to get better and better as time goes on. Check it out at www.mndaily.com/opinion/columns !!
