A Very Nice Friday Indeed : )

Hi all!

Baba and Dido, thanks again for the amazing package...it's amazing how fresh and delicious schnitzel tastes even after it's been mailed...

Today a friend and I hiked up a hill (I was fortified by my schnitzel sandwich) and made snow angels -- it was a very fun way to spend a Friday. All the things that Dad always tells me to do more of: exercise, adventure, snow art... unfortunately this weekend I have a lot of work to do and, of course, I'm already behind on my plans to get it done... nevertheless, I will prevail. : )

I wanted to just put up a few more pictures from Christmas that I thought you guys might like. I have more but they won't all fit so I just chose two.

Some Pictures from Christmas

Hello! Here are some pictures from Christmas Eve -- I can't believe it was only two weeks ago! And in between we went back to MI, had New Year's came back to school, had a week of classes...woah!

Pre-Thanksgiving!

Well, it was very sad to miss the turkey dinner Baba always makes before Thanksgiving this year. But I was able to make up for it a little bit...my friends and I (mostly my friend Blakeley) cooked dinner tonight. We had turkey cutlets, stuffing, homemade cranberry sauce, green beans, and roasted vegetables. Also, I made pumpkin pie. It was really nice to have home-cooked food...but it made me miss home!

Also, I was sick last weekend but I'm pretty much over it now, except that I still have a cough. I guess that was unavoidable.

I look forward to seeing everyone in less than two weeks!

Homecoming!

Well, I had a great weekend. First off, my friend Adrienne visited me from Boston, which was a ton of fun. Second, it was Homecoming weekend, and Dartmouth won, breaking an 18-game losing streak. Third, I went to Molly's restaurant for dinner on Saturday, and they have the most delicious bread ever. So overall, it was a really good time : )

My play!

As I mentioned, I wrote a short play that was chosen to be in a play festival that took place last night. (Above is a [bad] picture of the program. Mine is the third one.) It was pretty cool to see people performing lines that I had written... plus, Chris and several of my friends came out to see it which I thought was nice.

Anyway, sorry I haven't put anything up in so long! I'm going to try and get more up in the coming weeks.

Sophomore Year, Entry 1

Hi everyone!

It's good to be back at Dartmouth. The weather's been nice, classes start tomorrow, my room is all set up...today we inaugurated our new president. It was kind of exciting.

I've put up some pictures of my new room. Enjoy!

Finally, some pictures!

Some pictures of the house and  our vacation Up North. First, in front of the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island; Zan, Dad, and I in Petoskey; Mom in Steve and Kathy's lake house; and the view from the top of our stairs at home. : )
