Did you know that Pandora has comedian channels? Because they do. Thanks to a friend with excellent taste in comedy I have recently discovered the joy of strolling to class while being entertained with endless jokes. My favorite part of this process is that I am horrible at stifling laughter. Horrible. So, if there is a particularly amusing joke, I bust out laughing at a joke no one else can hear. People of Auburn, do not be alarmed at the girl laughing to herself standing at the crosswalk.

How many weeks has it been since I last wrote? Two? Three? Yikes. Let's play catch up.

I. Chicago
A most excellent adventure. Visited with the good people of DePaul University to chat grad school. (I'm not totally sure about if I want to go to grad school or not. We'll see how that goes) Saw Charlie Brown and some hatching baby chicks at the Museum of Science and Industry, visited Pawnee at the Field Museum of Natural History, and popped into Russian Tea Time for a spot of afternoon tea.
But before you get away with thinking that I am so scholarly for going to all these high class venues, there was also a very intense crash course in trash television, instructed by my cousin/weekend host, Dan. Good times all around.

II. Sherlock Holmes Reading Event
After three weeks of tearing my hair out, the English Club's reading event finally came and went. Nobody died (namely, I didn't die) so I'd call it a success.

III. Altar Your Life
This past weekend was a weekend retreat put on by my home church. I went back and was a group leader for the 11th grade girls. I've had many of these nuggets in bible studies and whatnot since they were in the eighth grade. Needless to say, lot of love but no respect. We had a grand time though catching up and hanging out with Jesus.

So there's the past few weeks in a nutshell. I'm hoping to have more writing samples to put up soon, those are more fun to do than life recaps. Fingers crossed that we'll have a good prompt in class sometime soon!

peace and blessins
