Labor Day Weekend

My goodness, today was fun!
Yesterday was fun...
and the day before that was fun!
So here is what my weekend looked like:
~Friday~
I woke up at about eight thirty (we were up late the night before labeling CDs at chapel media) I skipped breakfast and went to chapel, which starts at nine o'clock. Chapel to Spoken Communication, then Orientation to Home Economics (I'm a Home Ec major, btw, I don't think I've ever said that here...) Went to lunch at the caf. and then did homework until one forty-five, at which time I headed over to the chapel media building to go to the weekly meeting- stayed until two forty-five and then left the meeting early to go to work. I got to work five minutes early (next time I know I have until two fifty... :-) worked until five and then went to the caf., sat with chapel media people then went back to the dorm and did some more homework... then the weekend started! :-)
That night a bunch of us went to chapel media and watched The Great Escape on the big screen- it was fun, I haven't seen it in a long time and it's a fun movie. After it was over we spontaneously watched a new episode of Psych, which happened to be a creepy episode... Haha... then I went to bed...I think it was about one o'clock
~Saturday~
I woke up at eight o'clock when a friend came in to wake me up- we were going to go hiking but I decided that I should get some more sleep and then get some homework done... so I did. When everyone got back from hiking we went to chapel media and watched Psych-the first season. I watched one episode and then went for a swim with a friend when I got back they were still watching! they were on their fifth episode! After it ended, we all went to dinner... crazies... lol
A wing mate asked me if I wanted to play ultimate frisbee down on the soccer field- I don't like ultimate frisbee, I'm not bad at it, and I do participate when I play, I just would rather be doing something else- So, I was polite- okay I hadn't played in a long time and I wanted to see if I still didn't like it- so I went, it was okay, I would still rather be doing something else, but it was fun to hang out with some new people- not that the old people are getting boring, on the contrary!! They could never be boring! but meeting new people is good for the social skills :-P
After that my friend and I headed back to the dorms to play Maffia- only to find out that we had hung out on the field just long enough to miss it... :-( So instead we went up to our brother dorm and hung out in the lounge for a while (a few people were watching the football game and it was fun watching them!) After a while some one suggested a movie and we ended up moving all of the furniture in the lounge to create (sort of) a movie theatre and we watched The Fiddler on the Roof on some one's seventeen inch computer screen. It was fun, I've never seen it before, so it was nice to finally see this movie that so many people rave about. One of the guys brought out two tubs of homemade cookies that his mommy had sent with him to school (and a bag of marshmallows! I love marshmallows!) and we ate them all! there were probably four cookies left when the movie was over. I was surprised at how many guys watched it! I always assumed it was a chick flick. I guess not. :-D
Half way through the movie, my best friend came, and so after the movie, we went back to the dorm and stayed up until two o'clock talking!
~Sunday~
We were soooo tired the next morning! I even drank coffee out of desperation to stay awake in church! I never drink coffee- I was wide awake for the rest of the day... After church I went to My best friend's house and we hung out and I did my laundry in their machine. We played the piano for a little while- she just learned the basics of playing the guitar, so I showed her how to play my most recent song and we sang together! It was so cool!
I went to bed pretty early that night, a friend did my hair in an inside-out braid before I went to bed, it was neat.
Oh, I have also now been nick named The Green Egg. Because I am Sam... Sam I am, and I have drawn green eggs and ham on my white board... lol
~Monday~
Woke up at seven and ran to breakfast and then back to our brother dorm to go hiking, We went to Vasquez Rocks- it was a lot of fun and I am going to be super sore tomorrow. We lost one of our guys and everybody was kind of worried for a while, but he was found, he has a twisted ankle but he is okay. When we go back we went to lunch right away because they were cleaning up the BBQ at one and we got back at about twelve thirty. We hung out and played some frisbee too, for a while and then headed back up to the dorms to get ready for school tomorrow. On our way up the hill we passed the pool and it just looked so good, so cool and refreshing that my friend and I took off our shoes and ran and jumped in to the pool with all of our clothes on! It was so fun! and it was very refreshing.
We stayed little longer than we had planned to, but it was great. So now I have showered and am doing some class reading...
Ah, it's been a good weekend.
