MOMENTS OF THE WEEK

It’s that time of the year when almost EVERYONE is sick with a cold. I blame my roommate Emily for getting me sick. Now I feel like the baby in this GIF. I can’t stop sneezing and all I want to do is sleep, but I can’t because I have so many things to do.



The reason I am sick is because I didn’t get much sleep all week. I had so much homework and a big test for my global communications class. This test required me to learn where all the countries in the world are! Honestly, when I began studying I realized I did not have any prior knowledge so it was very stressful and challenging to learn everything. However, I think I ended up doing really well! All of my late nights studying on Sporcle and printing out maps to write on paid off.

This past Friday, the 30th, was my roommate Kyrstin’s 21st birthday!! While my roommates and I took her out to dinner, my other friends decorated our apartment and got the party set up. Then when we came home, everyone in our apartment surprised her! We had a cake and a PINATA full of candy and fun things! It was so much fun, but as my parents would say, “its all fun and games until someone gets hurt”. Kyrstin, while blindfolded trying to hit the piñata, let go of the club she was swinging with. It flew behind her and wacked my friend in the leg! L  She is okay. She just has a tiny little bruise there!

MOMENTS OF THE WEEK

Happy Halloween! This past weekend was super fun! There were many festive on campus activities to take part of during the week and on the weekend!   I made my own costume Friday night and I could not have been more excited. It seems weird, but since last summer I knew exactly what I wanted to be… A Wacky Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man! Yes. I was one of those waving things you see at car dealerships. And, yes, I flailed and waved all night long. I actually got so into it, that I cannot move my neck now because I gave myself whiplash. L Anyway, here’s how I made it! First, I bought two pop-up hampers from Amazon. I cut off the bottom of one of them so I could fit inside both hampers when standing up. Then I used zip-ties to attach the hampers to each other since I cannot sew. Once attached, I covered and wrapped the hampers with a plastic tablecloth that I bought at Party City for a dollar using super glue! Next, I cut out holes for my arms (cutting through both the hampe...

I cannot believe that this semester is almost over!   Though I was a bit stressed this week, it didn’t stop me from partaking in the various activities both on and off campus! Friday night I went to the Saint Michael’s home hockey game at Cairns Arena in South Burlington. This was the first game I went to this year and it was an awesome game! We played Babson College and we won 4-2! A bunch of students from Saint Mike’s were there to have fun and cheer on the Purple Knights! And my roommate Julie sang the national anthem in the beginning of the game, like she does for soccer games! It was a great time!  Speaking of hockey, my intermural hockey team had our last game Thursday night. Sadly, we lost, per usual L . However, everyone played their best and it was evident that as a team, we all improved and that this was our best game of the season! The end score was 2-5, which is pretty good considering the team we played was made up of all boys and one girl who all actuall...

This week was really stressful for me. My workload was pretty heavy. Besides reading and starting a research paper, I had to attend court and certain other meetings in order to do a project for my media law class. I also attended the performance of Macbeth at the Flynn for my Shakespeare class! Friday my best friend Emily from back home came to visit me! Her visit was the PERFECT stress releaser. I haven’t gone home to New Jersey since I have been at school this semester and no one has come up to visit. Thus, seeing someone from home was much needed! Saturday morning we drove to Stowe Pinnacle to hike! Originally I thought the weather was going to be bad, but it ended up being a beautiful day! Thought it was a bit muddy, it was not too windy or cold. There were many cute dogs accompanying people on their hikes. Two even wore small coats!   Once we got to the top, it was surprisingly very clear and obviously very beautiful! Emily and I took some pictures and had a snack before ...
