Happy first day of spring!!!!
Today was one of those rare, beautiful days at GCC; the sun actually shone and it didn't rain, not even a drop!!! :) It was actually pretty nice, too, I didn't have to wear a coat! (that NEVER happens!)
This half of the semester my fitwell lab (required of all freshmen) is lovely (NOT) aerobics. It is a wicked fun class where we get to sweat until we can't see and then exercise until we can no longer feel our appendages.....oh, did I mention all the while your heart feels like it will burst and your lungs start breaking out of your ribcage? All of this was in the name of "cardio kickboxing".....sounds harmless enough...but beware! :)
Our IM bowling team is undefeated! Yay!!!! Our IM basket ball team is, too! With the help of 2 forfeits, we are now 4 for 4! :) Tonight we had a game against a team with 10 girls....we only had 6 and one has shin splints really bad and couldn't play more than a couple minutes.....but we won!!!! 34-11!!!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!! SOOOOOO much fun!
Classes are going well, we are finally getting back into chem concepts that I understand!!! (or can figure out!) Bio is going well, I love that class! It is all plants and bugs!!! :) (did I mention my favorite professor teaches it? :) ) I have 2 exams, a big paper and a little paper due on Monday....ick, not fun.
Miss you all and look forward to being home in 9 days!!!!!!! Hugs, E.
Hello Everyone!
Last weekend my mom, sister, and brother came out to PA, we had an awesome visit, I had a blast with them! Hills got my bed and I slept on the floor....not so comfy! :) Sisterly love! haha It was pretty fun and it was really nice to see them...I can't wait until Easter break!!!!
This week has been rather crazy....no major exams but lots of little things that kind of piled up and made life quite hectic...
Our Intramural soccer team finished up...we didn't make it into the finals but we had a blast playing! I am now doing IM Bowling (we have an 8 lane alley here on campus) with 4 of my friends and so far we have won both of our matches! :) I'm also subbing for the hall IM basketball team when they don't have enough girls...we won our first game of the season and the second game the team forfeited so we got that as a win as well!! :) I'm trying to see about doing a hall IM softball (slow pitch!) team....but so far there are not enough girls interested....the good thing about IM sports here is that they are not too intense...mostly like pick up games at home....just fun! and good study breaks!
I had "Pelkey Church" today, was nice, listened to music from the Lincoln Christian Fellowship site (Part of HOME!!!!) and did my own bible study, it was nice....really miss my church family!
Well, I have a lot to do for classes tomorrow! Hugs to you all!!! E.
Time flies! It seems that I have just gotten back to school, but our winter break is already here! Thankfully, I made it through my exams okay (I think, I haven't gotten my bio exam back yet!).
I'm going to Virginia for break again, this time I'm staying with Kirsten's family. Should be fun, we're trying to make it into DC one day.
I found out this morning that Olivia went to be with Jesus last night. Was sad and i cried...ugh. Life stinks sometimes.....cool that she gets to be in heaven but pretty stinky trying to live without her in our lives. I'm planning on going to her memorial service next weekend.
I'm hoping you all have a nice weekend! Hugs, Me
I made it through most of my exams! :) All except the Biology one which got postponed to next Wednesday due to the snow day on Valentines Day! :) It was the first snow day in 18-22 years here at Grove City College...kind of crazy! We had fun though and didn't object to not having classes! haha
Our soccer team is doing okay...mostly we're just having fun! We lost 2 games, won one and tied one thus far....but it is a good way to break up the week and to get some exercise!
I'm doing the Relay for Life this year! I was going to create a team but didn't get the notice about the organizational meeting until the night before the sign up and I couldn't make it to the meeting so I joined the ACS(American Chemists Society GCC Chapter) team. I think it will be fun!
Mom called this morning and told me that Olivia (my friend who has a brain tumor) had taken a turn for the worse. She's not doing very well and the cancer is spreading. She's a senior in high school. Please keep her in your prayers. I put together a get well package this afternoon and Katherine (my roomie) is heading up another package of get well cards from the girls on our hall. Everyone is so nice about it!!!
Alissa (lives next door) has her orchestra concert tomorrow night. I'm wicked excited to go to it; I went to the fall one and it was amazing!!! Will be a nice chance to relax!
I signed up for the ACS trip to the Carnegie museum in March....it was only $6 and I thought like it sounded like a good fun way to get off of campus!! haha
Well, I have to go finish writing my bibliography for my Civ Arts paper,
Hugs, I love you and miss you all! Love, Elizabeth
