You may all forward your letters to me care of a little town called NYC; its is official that I am living there...as soon as possible! I had such a great time seeing Emily, meeting her family and friends, and spending time in NJ/NY!! Time went by so quickly and before I knew it I was back in Brighton: Oh yeah! Ok here is a rundown of my adventure ( Read more... )

It is official I am moving to New York. 3 more days and then I'll be gone. Yea Sarah and Matt are letting me stay on their couch; its a pretty sweet deal all I have to do is watch their kid and fight off the paparazzi. Now this would all happen if I ruled the world, and Kerry would become our next president, Gary Oldman would marry me, and Joy ( Read more... )

Where do I even begin!? Last night was INSANE..."Two Team Party Machine!!" Angie, Shannon, and I took a quick road trip to Flint to visit the Delts at Kettering and to dominate their party ;) Now I don't usually like frats, frat boys, or frat houses (for various reasons that Emily can attest to), but the guys last night were very nice and "got ( Read more... )

GREAT evening tonight with my dear Shannon: Harry Potter 3 and a trip to ole Canada! Harry Potter was awesome because it is a) my favorite of the books b) daniel radcliffe is growing up nicely (hey only 3 more yrs till he's legal ;) c) GARY OLDMAN! Mr. Oldman is my absolute favorite actor and Sirius Black is my favorite HP character so I was ( Read more... )

A highly appropriate title for my night tonight ;) haha I truly enjoy random nights where you never know what's going to happen next or where you'll end up. I had a blast in A2; saw Day After Tomorrow with my "I have a minor in Global Change" friend Burke and surprisingly Douglas as well :) The movie wasn't as bad as I thought..."Weather won!"

Whenever Sean Bean, Shannon Mckay, and Coke Slurpees are involved...you know a goodnight is guaranteed;) Troy was throughly entertaining and basically what I expected. It was "Inspired by the Illiad," need I say more? Good special effects, nice costumes, very beautiful people oiled up and wearing very little clothing; not a bad night if you ask me ( Read more... )

I have returned!(clap, clap)I know, I know, a little too overwhelming;) How is everyone?! Maybe its just the jet lag or being gone for 3 weeks, but its really odd being here. (Or it could just be because I live in BRIGHTON) I had a great time seeing the sights with my parentals and the rest of our tour group. I learned so much during my vacation ( Read more... )

Here's to random road trips to reformed christian communities! My first taste of Hope college (Shannon's FORMER university) was quite interesting, due to the large number of people in traditional Dutch costumes. Now I thought for a second that this might be common practice there, until I realized it was "Tulip Time." Parades, dutch apple pie, ( Read more... )

First off, I would like to thank Megan Marod for being an amazing friend to me this year and a fabulous hostess!! :) I'm going to miss you tons, and I wish you so much luck in the future! Last night was definitely the perfect way to end my first year in college. (Hooray for living 30 min from campus!) If not my favorite party/night, it was very ( Read more... )

Holy crap, am I glad to be out of high school! It was really fun to see Mean Girls with a primarily high school or lower aged audience - ok all h.s or lower, besides Shannon and I ;) It was like a PG-11 version of Thirteen (which is also excellent). The interesting thing, is that this seemingly fluffy movie was actually really good. Its based on ( Read more... )
