I arrived at work yesterday and one of my coworkers observed that I "looked hung over." It took a while for me to convince him that I don't, in fact, drink. Although I probably did look really sleepy and out of it, because I was really sleepy and out of it. Just not hung over ( Read more... )

Today was fun.

I love my friends.

Sorry I couldn't stay longer, Sara. I had to go fill out a substitute form at work. :(

Ultimate frisbee rocks the house.

I want to be at Grinnell. And at the same time, I want this summer to last a lonnnng time.

The end.

So, I have decided that Grinnell should be my home for the next four years. Seriously. I loved loved loved the campus; it just felt right. I was more at ease walking around by myself there than I was wandering around Illinois' campus with a group of good friends. Go figure ( Read more... )

Friday night was Rec Night, and I am very glad I went . . . Even if I am still sore from those weird relay races. Somehow I was chosen to be a team captain, and my ferociously awesome team was The Yellow Wombats.

Oh, what a Friday. My stress level has gone down so much it's incredible. Turning in the papers for classes, getting my scholarship app in to my counselor, playing some good ultimate frisbee in the afternoon, practicing, and finally figuring out a group and making plans for Homecoming all made this day awesome. Not to mention the tasty dinner I ( Read more... )
