you could bet that, never gotta sweat that

song that i'm in love with at the moment: miguel - sure thing.
but i hate when you hear songs and they remind you of... people when you just really want to get them out of your head.

it's crazy that i only have about a month of classes left, spring break seems like only yesterday. had a grrrreat time in canada with raquel, alishah, steph, and michelle. it was a long drive sitting bitch the entire way, passing through the town of NEDROW before crossing the border and getting into ottawa. met a bunch of cool people, got to buy alcohol like a big girl, ate some interesting foods, learned some canadian slang, and just had fun roaming ottawa in search of bars and nightclubs like drunken sluts. and my parents will never be wiser.

after crossing the border... "look out for canadian boys with long fingers!"

yummy mixed drinks with sake and a bunch of other good stuff.

amaaaazing sushi!

i've been back in school for two weeks now... nothing interesting there. it's exam time again fuckmylife. add that on top of the stresses of presentations, a shitload of group projects, choreographing for tinikling and greek week, trying to find a summer job, etc. dance team practices have been intense lately since we have competition TONIGHT in the meadowlands at 11:30 in the fucking PM.

it's always good to see friends from back home though. last weekend i went home for my dad's birthday and got to see a lot of important people =) then austin, jason, dots, and marclyle came up to go to sonic. good times, good food; add that to the list of epic nights with bridgewater (and monroe?) heads. came back to my dorm which was TRASHED with shaving cream all over the hallways, and apparently we had a visit from a few firetrucks when i was gone.

i've discovered the joy of oovoo =) finally putting that webcam to good use.

i'm looking forward to spending the rest of the weekend with my lovely dance team ladies, not looking forward to all the work i'm gonna have to do when i get back. but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

just like me

it feels good to sit around and do absolutely nothing after a whole month of not being able to take a breather. i have a few hours left of relaxation before i go do spring break stuff and find myself back at lehigh on sunday. can't believe how quickly february came and went, but i'm looking forward to springtime in a few weeks =)

after being sick for most of january, came out of hibernation first weekend of february. went to crocodile rock in allentown for an LSU party where safiya said i had the nicest hair haha. made attempts to learn how to dance merengue and bachata and all that other good stuff and NOT so much reggaeton, thank god. played some drunk ping-pong and had a slice of the best pizza i've tasted in all my time in pennsylvania.

exams were okay... i guess. i promise to be more dedicated to my studying and not leave to go to random places out of state when i should be studying for midterms. speaking of random places... SONIC!? delicious. the later, the tastier.

dance team has been taking up most of my time but that's nothing new. on top of practices, we had basketball games every few days but that's pretty much done. we're switching gears and getting ready for all the fun stuff: competition, theta chi sweetheart, spectacular spectacular, and dozens of other random gigs inbetween. at the last home game, we finally whipped out new routines. a few of last year's seniors came to visit which is always nice.

in the quest for something to do this summer, on valentine's day weekend i found myself in new york city for the first time this semester. interviewed for inroads in hopes of having them find me an internship, then roamed around the city with josh on an adventure for cupcakes and a birthday present for mike. spent the weekend at rutgers, celebrated mike's birthday, met up with my original valentine, krystle diaz whom i never see, had a nice sausagefest at ihop. i wish i had a camera and that i had pictures from that weekend =T thinking about that weekend makes me want cupcakes.

i turned 20 last week, and celebrated with leslie, stephanie, and the rest of the brothel, and a bunch of our close friends (and people i've never seen in my life). we all blacked out. my memories of the night consist of the hilarious stories i've heard from everyone who was there. thank you for helping me remember one of our finest nights at lehigh.

friday marked the beginning of my spring break. after cleaning the party house, jesse and i took a stroll down 287 in the green machine to get to rutgers. ate the quart of red velvet ice cream that steph bought me, which killed my voice for the rest of the weekend but it was well worth it. highlights of ecaasu include watching fr3sh perform, meeting new people, seeing people i haven't seen in a very long time, and seeing a certain someone i wish i could see more often.

was at home in bridgewater for a few hours before packing up my things again and heading to boonton to celebrate steph's real birthday. i don't think i've ever eaten so much food in a span of 48 hours. went sledding, ate, watched a few movies, ate some more, played a nice round of cranium, ate some more, went to applebee's, and came home yesterday. in a little bit, i'm gonna have to pack up all my things again 'cause i'm going to canada =) road tripping with raquel, alishah, steph, and michelle. weather's gonna suck but that's okay.

that ends the recap of the past month and the sneak preview of the weekend to come. mmmhmm.
