3. My weekends.
-Hmm...one weekend I worked the Phi Delt Gates for DO. That was way fun. And cold.
-There was the weekend of the combined chorus concerts (whooooot!) and the bicentennial ball. Jay came to that one. We danced and had fun and everything was happy.
-The overnight with DO. That was a GREAT weekend.
-One weekend we got sung to by FUMA. Actually, I think that's happened twice now.
-There was the weekend I partied without Luke. I liked that weekend a lot.
-Luke and I went to RENT that one weekend. That was superly fun.
-I went home to see Music Man at Bethel.
-I spent a lot of time sleeping, practicing, working, and doing nothing.
-I went to the CSO with Erin and Kori. Yay.
-DO Game Night and all that musical stuff was that same weekend.
-I love parties with the band.
-I love parties at the John's.
-We took Emily to a party once.

4. Spring Break
I spent spring break at Katie's. I like her family lots and I thought it was really fun. Next year, though, I want to go on a real spring break. With Luke. To NYC. Or maybe someplace else. But either way, I want to go some place. But I think going to Katie's was a really good first choice.

5. Hair
I got my hair cut a lot this year. I didn't get it cut at all in high school except for the first day before orientation. Or maybe in sophomore year or something. But it grew out really long. And I liked it long. But I love it short. I've had various short lengths this year, but they've all been fun.

6. Persuasion
Luke and I love persuading people to do things. We've persuaded Emily to go to a party. We had to get Katie to go, too, but Katie is obviously easier to convince. Then we persuaded Shanna to go on a midnight walk before her 8am class. We plan on doing a lot more persuasions in the future :D

New York City is awesome in March. And it seems like our spring breaks coincide this coming year (7-14 March 2010). Perhaps if you come to NYC later in the week, we could meet up (depending on how Pitt basketball does).
