Anyway, I went cuz Marino had a bowling tourney to go to so I said I'd go. I was hoping for a little shopping as well. Woe to me that I forgot that she'd been hacking sick the week before.

I had a blast this weekend! My friend Mariko stayed with me on Weds. until Saturday for Thanksgiving. You know, since they all leave the dorms, I didn't want her to be alone!

Yet again in class today, I was shocked and awed by what I learned. We watched documentary on Black Hawk Down and the whole Somalian conflict. They interviewed six soliders who fought to get to the downed Black Hawks and save them from angry Somalians. It wasn't pretty. It was a frightening thought. I was only old enough to understand one part of ( Read more... )
