DISNEY!

Today is the first day back from Spring Break. It's hittin' hard. I worked on a take home mid term for 5 hours last night and pretty much didn't want to wake up this morning.

For Spring Break I went to Disney World with my family! I flew down on March 5th and stayed until March 10th (Kristy's Birthday!)
We went to all of the parks; Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, EPCOT, and Hollywood Studios. Also made it to Downtown Disney three times. One of the nights we took a taxi to Universal Studios to see Blue Man Group which we had front row center tickets for! It was sooo cool! :)
The sun was amazing, and the weather was great. It was in the 70's during the day but at night it went down to the 40's which was cold. The trip was great and we had fun!On Thursday after Disney I went to Messiah to hang out for the day and night. I saw lots of friends!!! It was soooo great! First, I hung out with Danelle and Amanda! I went over to Kristy and Kate's for dinner! Then I hung out with Liz! :) After that I hung out with Katie and Kelly and then went to Powerhouse. I also hung out with Heather but only for a little :(
Friday I went to school again and did some research in the library then I went to the union with Katie, Amanda and Danelle. After that, Katie, Kelly, Danelle and I went to Brusters. We BLASTED music the whole way there. It was soooo fun!
Saturday was just spent hanging around and then Sunday I went to my church which was great because I hadn't been there in like 2 months. Then I took the 5PM train with Becky back to Philly and did homework for the whole night. ughh.

I'm not really sure what this week has planned, other than a ton of homework. Some of which I need to do for 4:30. Peace for now.

but the city, it calls her now

Common Text Immersion Weekend:

Friday night we went to dinner in the city! We had the option of a few different ethnic restaurants in the city. I went to New Delhi, which was an Indian restaurant. I don't think I have ever had Indian food but I liked it. Some of it was very spicy!

Saturday morning we were supposed to have an outdoor service project but we couldn't because of the recent snow. At 2pm we went to the chapel where we had discussion and worship from Joshua Grace and the Psalters. The Psalters are a band and they are very unique and sing songs from many countries. They are very radical. After that it was time for dinner in which we had a catered meal from Qdoba which was delicious. We decided to set up the karaoke machine and we all sang to every song for like an hour! That was sooo fun! The big event of the night was ice skating down at Penn's Landing which sits on the Delaware River. It wasn't cold because I dressed very warm!

Sunday morning I went to Epiphany for church. I do really like that church. I like it more and more every time I go! That afternoon we went to the Philadelphia International Flower Show. I wasn't sure if I would like it at first, but when we got there I realized that plants and flowers could be used for art. I was amazed at all the displays! Some of us came back to MCPC to watch the USA vs. Canada hockey game. Was that ever intense! Two of our students are Canadian so they were rooting for them and the rest of us were cheering for the US. As everyone knows, Canada won. Bummer. That night I just chilled and then Heather came! She had some grad schools visits set up for Monday morning. Heather came to sleep at MCPC so she wouldn't have to drive far in the morning. We just hung out and did pretty much nothing. It was nice. She slept in Katie's room because they have an extra bed in their room.

This week will consist of classes and homework. I leave for Florida on Friday but I am leaving Philly on Thursday so I can go home and pack. Have a great week!
