Let It Snow

A lot of stuff has been happening lately. Good and bad. I'm still processing most of it, and honestly, I wouldn't know what to write about "my feelings" even if I wanted to. So instead, I'm going to recap my last week or so.

- I got back to school! I rode with my friend Alex. We had such a good time. She is so funny.
- The whole way back to school, we keep hearing news of this "huge snow storm". I laugh a little, wish for snow, but sort of doubt that it will happen. But Sunday night, we get a phone call saying, "Classes for Monday have been cancelled!" What! First day of class CANCELLED???? I think yes!
- Monday I got up and sure enough, there was a blanket of snow everywhere! It was magical! We had at least 8 inches. Most snow I've ever seen! I had to work in the RA office, so I trekked through some of the snow before other people were even awake. It was amazing. It really brought to mind Isaiah 1:18, which says, "'Come now, and let us reason together,' says the Lord. 'Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow...'" And naturally, all the snow called for some frolicking!

- Monday night, we got ANOTHER phone call cancelling class! That was exciting. The snow was icier, so we didn't play in it on Tuesday. Instead, I watched movies most of the day. Haha. But it was fantastic. So relaxing.
- Tuesday night, class was cancelled AGAIN for Wednesday. That was frustrating. I was ready to go back to class! Wednesday we mostly watched movies and talked.
-  Wednesday night we got yet another phone call cancelling class for Thursday. Now I was just peeved. But when we ventured out to see a movie, the roads were terrible, so I understood why they cancelled class. Katie, Kristen, and I went and saw Country Strong. It was really good. I loved it.
- Thankfully, we had class on Friday! I went to both of my classes and really liked them.
- Saturday and Sunday we had the first two rounds of rush! That was fun and difficult at the same time. It was hard as an RA, because I know some personal things about girls not even on my hall, and that made things difficult. Not bad, just difficult. And it was hard with my hall, to hear girls who were upset. But I'll make it through. I also got some hard news on Sunday, so that was hard. But Sunday night, Katie, Olivia, Laura, and I went to ABC for dinner. It was so fun. We literally talked about everything and nothing. It was perfect.
- Monday had no class thanks to MLK. I mostly hung out, did some work in my room. And Tuesday we had class! I liked both of my Tuesday/Thursday classes, so I think class-wise, it will be a good semester!
- Now I'm working in the RA office until 10:30. Then I have class and homework and maybe a nap thrown in there somewhere. :)

Till next time...
