The Newman Club retreat was fantastic. It was nice to be able to share my faith, my fears, my aspirations, with a group of people who I knew would be there to cheer me on and cheer me up. I really opened up to those guys, as they did to me. And then we had tons of fun - ukelele, song writing, low-ropes course, and big booty! What a great way to spend a weekend.
That was last weekend. This weekend I've been on-call every night - friday, saturday, and sunday, 8pm-8am. Basically, I'm stuck in the building with absolutely nothing to do. There's no one here, since everyone went home for the three day weekend. I've just been getting some homework done and catching up with good friends. Last night I hung out with Dave Engel and the night before I chatted with cool people online, including Mr. DiMicco (about my future in the education field! yikes... he basically told me I'd never have time to sleep. greeeeaattt).
I really can't complain about much. Classes have been going well, the fab five has been a great group to chill with, and I'm getting 8 hours of sleep each night. Wahoooo! The other night, the fab five ventured to Lincoln Park to watch Curtis and Drew compete in a stand-up comedy competition. 'Twas a ton of fun, and the boys took third and forth place, not respectively (ha). They make me so proud.
Also, I'm pretty set on disaffiliating from the sorority. It sucks, because some of those girls mean so much to me, but I just don't have the time or the money for it anymore. Plus, those that matter won't really be too upset with me anyhow. I wish I had more time, but I'm at a point in my life where other things are way more important - school work, RAing, friends, church and Newman Club to name a few.
And then there was confusion throughout my brain. More to come...
