Tuesday I made my annual Goebbert's trip with Nicole - that was so much fun! They had baby tigers in one of the animal tents - I wanted to take one home :] And of course we had to take pictures with the character cutouts:
We're so cute :D
After the farm, I had lunch with my daddy :]
But then it was time to head back to school. Silly school, getting in the way of my time with my family.
I made it, though, and decided that I wanted to watch Princess Bride for the evening :] 'So you'll put down your rock and I'll put down my sword and we'll try and kill each other like civilized people?' My favorite line :D
Wednesday it was so cold! I went to class and stayed at Wesley for a bit to see people. Then I went to orchestra and watched Fringe with Geoff and his roommates for a bit. Yeah, it was quite the uneventful day.
Thursday I got up and went to the grocery store before helping get the instrument petting zoo set up. In Psi we were hosting what we called an instrument petting zoo - we had a bunch of instruments that people could come and see. Well, I was going to help them set up, but then I may or may not have gotten in a fight with the self checkout machine and gotten delayed... Oops.
I went to my class and then we had Wesley exec. But it was so cold at Wesley! We were all freezing.
After exec, Liz and I did some camparing of apartments - like seeing what we both wanted and which places would fit that.
After house dinner, I had planned to do my Spanish homework and relax a bit. Then Jamie had an allergic reaction to some cold/cough medicine she bought so Mariah and I took her to St Elizabeth Central (the only urgent care place we could think of that would be ope, which was surprising given we're in a college town). That wasn't precisely fun, but we got to chat for a bit and it wasn't a severe reaction so it was ok.
Friday was rather eventful. I had class in the morning, and it was Geoff's birthday! It was also my brother's senior game so I was going to be ditching Geoff on his birthday. I had a good excuse though. Before I left to drive home I went over to his place so that I could see him for a little bit on his birthday :] We just kinda chilled at his apartment and watched his roommate play a video game. But it was fun :]
And then it was time for me to head home again. The drive was smooth, except for the 290/294 junction. That has the potential to be absolutely terrible - there's only one lane that switches between highways and that can get backed up pretty far. Recently it hasn't been bad at all, but Friday it was the worst I'd seen it in a good while. Other than that it was great, I got home when I wanted and I got to hang with my dad some more :] I gave him his birthday present too since I won't see him on his actual birthday.
Soon after I got home, Melissa arrived! And then was time for the game. But it was so cold! Melissa and I were shivering in our seats waiting for the senior presentations to begin. They honor the seniors of the football team, poms squad, cheerleaders and band so I was taking pictures of my borther and parents and various friends. I can't believe he's a senior O.o
Ugh, they lost too. That was unfortunate. But it was nice to get back home and into the warmth.
One thing, though, about that. I am super proud of my brother. He doesn't get to play all that much, but he was still standing on the sidelines at the line of scrimmage and watches every play, slapping guys on the back when they come off the field and helping people practice. It's also awesome to see how fired up he is in church and volunteering - he's a great kid. I really can't wait to see what he's got ahead of him.
Okay, that's enough big sister gushing :]
Saturday I was on the road again - wait, I feel like I just did this...
Oh yeah, because I did :]
I made it in time for the game, which was ugly from early on. In the second quarter it started raining, by halftime it was a steady pour. I had a green rain jacket that was left in the house, we didn't know whose it was so I snagged it. I saw inside the pocket yesterday, it's Kyle's. I texted him after the game, saying thanks for leaving it and that it was here if he wanted it back :]
Geoff and I went back to his apartment to get warm and put on some dry clothes :] We watched a bit of football before getting dinner with his mom and sister. That was fun, we moight have ganged up on him a bit ;] But it was nice to get to meet his family.
Back in his apartment, we watched The Men Who Stare at Goats - John (one of Geoff's roommates, the other's Joe) and I both think that movie is hilarious and Geoff hadn't seen it. The whole thing is one big Star Wars reference, hence the title of the post :D
And then it was time for Carly to go home and sleep, I was tired.
Today I had stadium cleanup in the morning - for Psi we help clean up Slayter as a fundraiser kind of thing. And after that I got to relax! I watched The Road to El Dorado - I love that movie :] It's so funny!
Between that and church, I watched some football. The Dallas-Baltimore game was a good game, I just wish they'd've shown the Eagles playing Detroit - Geoff's a Lions fan since his dad's in Detroit so I really wanted the Eagles to win. So of course they didn't.
I was a bit late to church because I wanted to see the ending of the Ravens game (They won - yay the Cowboys lost! :] ) and then I had the Eagles Gamecast on my computer. Once that game went to overtime, though, I decided that I needed to leave :]
There was an inordinate amount of dishes to be washed, so our COM meeting was a dish washing party :] We cranked them out, so that was good. Then it was time for chapter, and it was quite the long chapter meeting... We have to do a self-evaluation kinda thing so that took a chunk of time.
At least I've gotten to watch football after :D Though the game isn't as good as I thought - the Texans shot themselves in the foot and so the Packers seem to have run away with the game.
However, I'm not going to watch the end because I have class tomorrow.
Night!
-Carly
