SICK!

Ugh, I am sick sick sick. My throat is extremely sore, and my right nostril is completely closed. Yuck. Luckily I have some great friends who have offered me soup, gotten me smoothies, made tea, and kept people from knocking on my door so I can sleep. Even though I have been a bit under the weather, it hasn't kept me from having fun and studying lots!

Friday:
On Friday Sherree Burrus from my Woodlands Advisory came to visit MC and I! It was lots and lots of fun! Sadly, we forgot to take pictures :(. It was a perfect night to visit because there were two dance parties going on - one that was a BIG one (hosted by jimmy brabbin's floor) in the main lobby, and one that was hosted by my friend Max in his room. Max and his roommate Joe ordered an enormous strobe light, and it had arrived that morning. Here's a picture of him and a kid named Kevin showing us when it had just arrived. We were sitting in Erin and Katie's room eating cheesecake that we had bought at The Bean as a Friday snack before getting ready.


A horrible picture of Max, Kevin, and the strobe.



THe night was fun, but also got a little hectic. My friend Luke had borrowed the key to the lounge because he was going to make guacamole. After making it, he lost the key, and the building staff would not let him have his ID back until he found the key...which means he couldn't leave the building/go to the dance party in the lobby. So we ended up spending time looking for the key, but we never found it. They ended up giving him his ID back with a $25 fine.

On saturday a big group of us went to the zoo! We took the Metro Link to Forest Park, then walked about a mile and a half to the zoo from there. It was fun, but super exhausting because of the heat!


Dave, Katie, Doug, Me, Erin




Today (Sunday) is when I really got sick. Erin and I went to the library for 5 hours to do homework. We ate dinner with some people, then me, Erin, Katie, and our friend Dave went to the Environmental Task Force club meeting (which we belong to). After that was 10pm mass, then we did laundry and studied some more.

Tomorrow we are going to Shnuk's grocery store for food!
