Tonight I'm thinking Virtuoso!

Current mood: loved
Current music:Virtuoso, by David Phelps

Dayna, Melissa, and I went to the Ballet Magnificat! tonight at Lee University, and it was amaaaazing. Sooo good... and the music was much to be sought after. I'm actually listening to the song from the finale right now called "Virtuoso" by David Phelps. ^_^ The production tonight was about Ruth, and I enjoyed it immensely.

And then the three of us "surprised" our respective menfolk after their guys' night at Tony's apartment. ^_^ I enjoyed THAT immensely too, especially after not seeing Matty all weekend.

Okay, I'm done - it's time for bed. (Pray there is ice overnight so we don't have class tomorrow!! :-D)

Now, where were we? Ah, yes...

Current mood: relaxed
Current music:Music from the Scarlet Pimpernel, since we're watching it...

Saturday (cont'd): After the four of us left FCF, we came back to school briefly so that we could grab some stuff (and so I could change clothes from my now-soaking wet, freezing cold attire) and then go to Tony's apartment to make enchiladas for dinner. Matt and I went on over to preheat the oven and wash dishes while Tony and Dayna went to Walmart to grab necessary ingredients and such. Then we watched Kung Pow.... well, Matt and I did while Tony and Dayna slept, hahahaha. (We started it too late, I gather. :-D)

Sunday: First, I went to Grace Bible Church with Matt, Adam, and Laura (and of course we sat with Dayna and Tony ^_^), then we had lunch at school....yay.... Anyway, then we all parted ways to do homework or whatever until the appointed time when we would reconvene to go to Tony's again and watch the second part of Grey's Anatomy.

Monday (today): Classes happened - bleh. And then, after dinner, I spent some time in the cafe and then in the Long lounge with buddies... and then I went walking. At the end of my walk, I found Flip-Flop by Rudd (because she had been following me earlier and had given up on running behind me at about that point), so I walked up through the Triangle with her trailing behind. I stopped and sat on the hill to look up at the stars, and Flip-Flop crawled into my lap. After a bit, when I was lying down, staring up at the night sky, she shifted her resting spot from my lap to my stomach and chest, lol. So cute!! And now I'm here watching The Scarlet Pimpernel with Christina - roomie bonding time! ^_^

(P.S. I miss you...)

Weekend of Love, huh?

Current mood: chipper
Current music:Sally's Song, by Danny Elfman (from Nightmare Before Xmas)

Alrighty then! For those of you who wanted to know what those pictures on my last Xanga entry were all about, I shall recount the events of this weekend (which include said pictures - click thumbnails to see the biggies ^_^).

Friday: Valentine's Banquet!! Wicked fun, and the food was actually quite delicious (plus, it wasn't the same food they've served for all the other banquets so far)! ^_^ After the banquet itself (and many many crazy pictures), the guys blindfolded us ladies and drove us secretly to Tony's apartment and unveiled our eyes one at a time as we got to the door. They had red rose petals sprinkled across the floor and furniture, candles lit at various places around the room, and the ceiling was decorated as I shall now show in these pics:

They gave us Dove chocolate and sparkling red grape juice (which they had to go looking EVERYwhere for since it's V-day), along with some angel food cake, fresh strawberries, and whipped cream/Coolwhip. We watched Phantom of the Opera and then came back to school and played Apples to Apples until curfew.

Saturday: 11:50 AM, my cell phone rang. I was planning on going back to sleep. I only had to go to the bathroom, after all... but no. No more sleep for me. Tony called and told me of his magical plan to go to Fall Creek Falls and see the snow. So Tony, Dayna, Matt, and I piled into his car all bundled up and headed off. Once we got into the mountains, there was snow everywhere! it was beautimous!!! Matt took a bazillion pictures, but I've chosen a few good examples of the sights we saw on the way to FCF:

We had snowball fights, and I made two snow angels, one of which I gave feet and a halo! :-D I was going to bring back some snow for everyone, but they wouldn't let me keep it in the car, lol. I had a flippin huge snowball about the size of a large beach ball... actually a little bigger... and HEAVY as all get-out. It took me flippin forever to make; I gathered up handfuls of snow as we walked the trails and packed them in. My back started hurting after a while, and I sympathized with pregnant ladies, hahahahahaha. I made two, really... and the first one was about the size of a beach ball (a bit smaller than the second one) and we sent it over the side of the falls (from the second overlook we went to) and watched it splash hehehehhee. That's when I made the new one... it was a beast! Anyway, here are some pictures from FCF, once again compliments of Matthew:

This next bridge picture is one that was taken probably moments before I slipped and fell right on my butt/back... in fact, that might be my falling body at the bottom.... Hmm...

This next one is of the people across from us at the first overlook (where we had talen our group picture earlier). They were shouting for me to throw my big giant snowball over the side... psh, like I needed them to give me the idea. PuhLEASE.

...And now you get to see what my butt looked like after falling on that stupid icy bridge of DEATH.

Anyway, here are a couple more pictures of our view from on top of the falls.

Well, I have to go, but I'll finish talking about Saturday later. See ya!

Smells Like Spring Spirit

Current mood: cheerful
Current music:Eden, by Sarah Brightman

I want my Kon doll!!!!!

Dang it, I ordered it over a week ago, and TODAY I got an email saying "The following item(s) has/have been shipped to you. You should be receiving it shortly." Darn right I should!!! I'm annoyed. At least now I know he's on his way to me... *sigh* Just as Becca thought, I will most definitely be carrying him around with me to all my classes and stuff ALL day once I finally get him!!

Anyway, I never did recount the events of last weekend (whoops) - I tend to do that a lot. At any rate, this is the basic breakdown... Katie and Laura went to Laura's house for the whole weekend, so things were a little out of the norm, lol. On Friday night, Michelle F., Matt, Adam, Ashley (for a little while at least), Michelle B., and I watched Doom in Myra's apartment... I pretty much LOVED the first-person sequence, but the rest was... eh. After that, Matt, Adam, Michelle F., and I piled into Matt's car and went driving, desperate for something interesting to do... and we ended up dropping by Taco Bell and then going for a walk in a graveyard (apparently where Matt's grandparents are buried)! After we got cold enough, Matt and us girls got in the car and all crammed into the back seat (haha) and Adam was lurking about outside somewhere for a while before he finally came and sat in the car too. (We did attempt to fit him across all our laps in the back seat, but after a couple minutes, it was just...weird. So he relocated, hehehehe.) We listened to music and talked... and half-slept, really... until it was about 1:15 or 1:30 AM and time to head back.

On Saturday, I did pretty much nothing all day (as usual)... I really don't remember exactly what I did. Wait, yes I do. I was sick. So I slept in really late, missed brunch (oh darn...), made myself some "sickie" food/drink, drugged myself, and watched movies/slept the whole day.... until open dorm. Having slept through dinner, Matt called me while I was sleeping off the tussin gelcaps I'd taken foolishly at 5, forgetting it knocks me out completely, and the poor boy got a taste of my oh-no-you-didn't-just-wake-me-up grumpies. He asked if I was coming down for open dorm, so I told him the meds were still making my head swim and to let me have my nap cuz I didn't want to be falling asleep in their room while trying to watch a movie... Frightenedly, he said ok and went away
(lol poor Matty), and so I went back to sleep. Once down there, Matt, Adam, and I - joined soon after by Ashley and Michelle B. - watched Four Brothers (good stuff!), then Michelle F. came back from the opera and joined us... and I really don't remember what we did next. I only know we were up really, super, butt-late again. If it ever comes to me, I'll let you know, and maybe Michelle or Matt will remember and post a reminder .

On Sunday, I did homework in the grassy bowl with Beth-Beth until about 4, at which time I went down to Peter's house and we went to the Rave to see Underworld: Evolution. I liked the movie, but not as much as the first one, and I'm DEFINITELY glad it wasn't one of the ones I saw with my parents!!! Yikes! I mean, heck, it was awkward enough with Peter.... If I haven't already warned you, ask me about it some time. I don't want to tell people not to see the movie, cuz I still liked it, seriously... but I think I would have liked to have had a heads-up when I saw it, so I'm just passing on the favor I didn't get, lol.

The rest is ancient history. And now Michelle is gone to Italy for the semester (as of Thursday morning, about the time I was probably waking up). It was sort of weird and empty-feeling during lunch, but by dinner I was feeling much better about it all. She'll be back anyway. I'm going to enjoy my semester as it stands. Speaking of enjoying things, as much as I wanted my winter, I gotta confess.... I enjoyed the fact that today, although a bit nippy, sounded and even smelled like spring. The birds were singing when I awoke, and the air just made me feel all... springy. And I liked it!
