Sad day...

I'm now at the library--I found a spot that has free Wi-Fi =)
But they made me throw away my toasted coconut coffee...BOO!

Spring Break...Post Number...FAIL.

So basically I've failed at keeping this updated for Spring Break. Blame it on the lack of good internet. The only place I've found with wireless is a coffee shop in downtown Bryan which is only open until 2:30p and I have to buy something every hour. it sucks, but I've come to completely adore their Toasted Coconut flavored coffee. It makes me think I'm on some beach, somewhere...

My spring break has consisted of homework, homework and more homework. I've been working my butt off on Music stuff for my online class..one more week, one more project left to finish. The project is a little challenging. I have to do a listening outline for a piece of classical music. I've chosen a Chopin piece that I like, but I cannot find absolutely anything about the piece online. So much for the world wide web that has EVERYTHING.

I have gotten to hang out with some friends. Take some pictures of my adorable cousins. And spend some time sleeping. Tonight is my sister's musical ... Bye Bye Birdie. I don't know what she is in it, but she has a short solo!! Woot Woot! Will hopefully get some good pictures =)

That's basically all I have to say before I pack up. I'm at the coffee shop and they are basically shooing me out of here. They've had cleaning done for about an hour and I'm one of the few left...Adios readers...

Almost forgot...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL KELSEY LEHMAN!! YOU'RE OFFICIALLY NOT A TEENAGER! HELLLOOO 20!!!

Spring Break, report one.

Welcome to the first edition of ‘Bri’s Spring Break’. Within this first edition, we will be exploring the goings-on of Bri’s life during the first few days of Spring Break. This will be a special edition, as it will cover a couple days at a time. (Hopefully) there will only be one special edition this week =) Here goes:

Day 1:
Saturday my mom, my sister, and I went to look at some prom dresses for my sister. Fail. The women at the store told them that the poufy dresses would be in, but they weren’t. So we left. We then drove into Defiance to look at track shoes for my sister. We went to Khols, found shoes for her, I got a couple of pants. We left, went to the mall and got ready to watch a movie. Our choice in movie was something about Olympians. It looks good, but we waited to see it and they were having problems with the film, so we had to leave. We got to watch Alice in Wonderland and it was pretty good. We also got refund tickets to use at another time, free! Then we went a couple of other places and came home.

Day 2:
Sunday my sister had me wake up early so we could go to the 9:30 service at church because she had to work at 11:00. While at church, she realized that she didn’t have to work after all and we got up for nothing. I went home, slept til 3:30p and read an entire book in one day. Haven’t done that in a while.

Day 3:
Monday the goal was to wake up early. Fail. I didn’t wake up until 11:20. I got up and went into a coffee shop at home to do homework. I left at about 2, grabbed a cup of coffee to go. It was toasted coconut flavor. I had my mind convinced for about 2 minutes that I was in somewhere very warm. Soaking up the sun. Then I remembered that I was in Ohio, the temperature was maybe 50 and It was dreary and cloudy. Now I’m home watching Couple’s Retreat with my sick mother. Fun.
Later…I’ve watched 2012 as well and am attempting to watch Lost on Netflix, but our computer at home is stupid and its taking me twice as long to watch. I’ve already been through a bowl of apple pie a la mode and leftover mac n’ cheese. Sheesh…

Friendship Never Ends. . .

So you are officially reading words from the new RA of Delta 2 next year! I'm so excited! My roommates/suitemates are wonderful human beings and I can't wait to share in their lives (and many others) next year! I've got my theme mostly worked out, and I'm pretty sure it is going to be awesome. OH by the way, the roommates (for next year) deserve a shout out--Kelsey Lehman, Britney Miller, Emily Cleveland! Love you!

To celebrate, my lovely roommates (Kelsey, Madeline, and Angie) went with me to Steak and Shake and we had tons of fun laughing and eating. It was wonderful. Kelsey and I are now winding down the night watching Bones and loving it.

tomorrow I head home for Spring Break, but I have plenty to do before then. The room needs cleaned, dishes need done, and stuff needs to be packed. It came so quickly. And of course I cannot wait for it. Time to sleep, relax, finish homework. Homework doesn't sound fun, but it will be nice to have it done.

all princes start as frogs . . .

Today was a beautiful, wonderful day. That's all there is to it. But it did get cloudy and I didn't like that part of the day, but I feel like I got a little done today and was semi-productive.

So Madee, Kelsey, and I just had a little blast from the past discussion. "Wait for Me" by Rebecca St. James came on my iTunes DJ and we started talking about all of the Christian artists we liked when we were younger...Superchic[k], BarlowGirl, Steven Curtis Chapman, Chris Rice, Relient K, ZoeGirl. It was pretty interesting. Now we're sitting here listening to some of the songs, its quite entertaining.

Countdown to Spring Break: 3 days!!!
Countdown to RA EMAILS: 1 1/2 days!!!!

Here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again.

So today was rather uneventful. Went to lunch, went to photography, went to popular culture, went to work, went to Applebees, hung out with my fabulous Kelsey Janaye.

I did love the weather today. and I realized that I could go home on Thursday if I'm ready (and I probably won't be). Unfortunately (whether because of the weather or my hopefully retreating cold) I've gotten a couple of bloody noses today. Gross, I know, but props go out to Kelsey who was a complete and total doll. A one-of-a-kind trooper that girl...she hung out with me during the worst one. Cleaned up after me. Helped me try a couple things to make it go away. Scolded me for touching my nose too much when it was gone. Man I love that girl. Grossed out by everything, but she still managed to help me. Of course it was probably a little more manageable than the vomit she encountered while score-keeping for a boy's basketball game today.

Hopefully I can remember to call and get a hair appointment for next week. I'm thinking about getting a slightly different cut. . .

Countdown to Spring Break: 4 days!!!
Countdown to RA EMAILS: 2 1/2 days!!!

There's a she wolf. . .

So for all of you who read my last blog, disregard the part where I said that I was no longer sick. It DID subside on Tuesday and Wednesday, but came back on Thursday with a vengeance and continues to bug me today. So much for getting better.

I spent the weekend in Lansing at Kelsey's house with her and Rae. While I was a sickly child, we still managed to have some fun, take some pictures, watch some movies, make pies, and watch some bball.





Oh and I must tell you about what Kelsey did this week! Here is a little background: Angie, Kelsey, Madee and I have had a running joke about Shakira's She Wolf video. If you haven't seen it yet--watch it. Anyway, Kelsey brought back a beanie baby wolf after Christmas break and hid it in Angie's closet (there was a she wolf in her closet. . . hehe). Anyway, since Interim we have been taking turns hiding the wolf in each other's things and it has been Kelsey's turn for a while. Here is what she did. . .



Madee went to the bathroom and screamed, Angie SAT ON IT!

Countdown to Spring Break: 5 days!!!
Countdown to finding out about RA POSITION: 3 1/2 days!!!!

The sickness comes and the sickness goes

I've actually enjoyed being sick a little bit--I've only been sick since yesterday, and today I feel much, much better. With the exception of having a massively sore throat, I have gotten more sleep and pretty much get away with quite a bit =)

I'm so looking forward to this weekend though, getting off campus, going up to lansing with Kelsey and Rae, hopefully having fun rather than spending time doing homework. That is what Spring Break will be for ...

I don't really have much to say, Focus series is tomorrow and teachers are going a little crazy with it, assigning much more homework in addition to the piles we already have. It is looking at Just Economics, which could be interesting, we'll see.

I'm off to dinner soon. Hopefully something good will be in the dc, if not maybe i will convince Kels to go to Ada's for some soup! Sick people like soup. That is what I will say.

Be praying for me--my individual interview for my RA position is FRIDAY AT 10 AM!!! I will find out next week if/what I get!! Can't wait!! Also I have some wonderful possibilities (? or is it already definite?) for roommates next year! So puumped!!!!
