Happy Birthday Aunt Beth!

February 25th, 2009

Happy Birthday Aunt Beth! I’ve been admiring my calendar that Aunt Michelle made me with all the pictures from our trip to France, and today it says it’s your birthday! I hope you have a wonderful day!

Well I turned in my research for my English paper this morning, along with my outline, which wound up being 4 pages! The essay itself only needs to be 8 to 12 pages, so I think I can safely say I’m in good shape. Then I went to chemistry class and I got backĀ  my quiz from last week, and I got 17 out of 15!! I’m making up for not doing as well in that class at the begining of the quarter. I think this subject is just easier, it involves a lot more math. One of my friends, Jared, is going to be in my chemistry class next quarter, which will make it more fun. Sylvia is going to try and get in that class too, but I don’t know if it will fit with her schedule.

Tonight I have official salsa practice, which should be lots of fun, but it’s from 9 to 11pm, which kind of eats up a lot of my night. Our first performance is apparently going to be April 12th, or so I’ve heard. Hopefully we’ll be ready by then, things still need a lot of practice right now, particularly the tricks. The tricks are the most fun though, we do dips and flips and lifts and all the cool partner stuff you can imagine! If anyone comes to visit I’ll try and get Bao or Mitsu to help me show you, it’s lots of fun.

My friends got me a daffodil plant when I got sick, and I’m afraid it’s not getting enough sunlight in my room, so today I moved it to the balcony at the end of the hall. I’ll still have to go water it and check up onĀ  it, but I think it’ll be a lot happier there. It would probably be even better if I could actually plant it somewhere, but oh well.

This week is Bronco week, which is kind of like a spirit week on campus, so there’s lots of activities going on. Yesterday they had a mechanical bull outside of Benson, which was fun to watch. This friday they’ve even got a dance planned, my friends and I will probably go, because Friday is Mitsu’s birthday and he wants to go. It’s $10 for couples or $7 for singles, so we’re all going to couple up to buy tickets. We’re also thinking of going to a karaoke place for Mitsu’s birthday.

Two updates in two days!!

    Well, Sarah, I found your site after deleting all my FAVORITES when I was instructed to delete cookies in efforts to get our internet back on. Sorry you were sick. Glad you’re better and are doing well in everything. I look forward to reading about your adventures… Love, Don

    Wow, good to hear from you again! It’s been a while.

    Sounds like your life tends to work out pretty well, though I’m sorry to hear you were sick. Keep having fun and getting 17 out of 15s in difficult classes.
