Ketchup =)

I'm going to use this post as a little "catch up" post... hence my clever title =)
Before break, I failed to mention we had our annual Christmas Banq
uet. This year (since my fiance is at home in northern VA) I went with a group of 8 girls and 1 lucky guy friend of ours. All of us girls got dolled up for a nice dinner in Chalfant, followed by a comedian for our entertainment. My most favorite part (other than seeing all of my friends dressed to impress) was the chocolate chip cheese cake =) It was REMARKABLE! (I'm in the black dress with gold/green ribbon)
I got back to school safe and sound Sunday afternoon after being stuck in Battle Creek, MI due to a snow storm... and was able to unpack and relax being thankful for getting back safely! Monday night the Associated Student Council office put on a birthday party for our President, Dr. Bowling... and what better place to have it at than the BOWLING alley! There was free bowling for all university students until mid-night. So my friends and I went and celebrated with bowling for 2 hours! It was a blast. ONU had the entire place to itself and it was PACKED!
Classes officially started back up this past Tuesday (Jan 13)... However, mother nature had a different idea. We went to classes Tuesday and Wednesday despite the frigid weather... and then... CLASSES CANCELED on both Thursday and Friday! It was amazing! We didn't have to go to classes, not because there was snow, but because there was a -30 wind chill both of those days! Talk about antarctica... I felt like I was right there at home with the Eskimos and polar bears. It was too cold to walk around outside anywhere for a good distance. So naturally, being closed in my apartment for a lovely 4 day weekend I soaked it all in with chick flicks, frozen pizzas, and hanging out with my girl friends. It was such a great weekend!
Today classes resumed and boy is it feeling like a LONG day. This morning I had Physics II and then I went to my first day of my Physical Therapy Internship. I'm really excited to see how everything pans out for this internship. I had a good first day, however, I didn't really know what to do or what to expect so I was a bit nervous. It was neat to see the therapist working with the patients doing exercises and performing different techniques that I have been learning all about. I go Wednesday, Thursday and Friday as well... 18 hours a week! I'm definitely going to be busy as a BEE this semester =) Till next time!
