  •  Roommates and Spring Fun!!

    Sunday, May. 17, 2009 11:26 AM

    Hello again!!!

    Wow!  I cannot believe how much time has passed since I updated this.  It feels like just yesterday!!  The weather has been so beautiful and I have been so busy.  Spring Quarter is officially my favorite quarter of all.  Except that I have been crazy busy!!!  There’s so much going on!  Santa Clara had a great celebration for Earth Day with a lot of cool little things.  Some of my friends climbed a rock wall.  It was great to watch them!  I haven’t done that in several years and figured I would break something if I wasn’t careful!!!

    They did have these really cool peace items that accepted donations.  I bought one.  it was clay and I am wearing it around my neck right now!!

    I have finished up with just about all my midterms and it’s almost time for finals I cannot believe that.  I signed up for one session of Summer Quarter.  It’s amazing how easy it is to fill core requirements at Santa Clara.  I will be filling my ethics and lab science requirement.  This allows me to take more Classical Studies courses!   Yay!

    I have also declared a second major in English!  I am going to try to design my own concentration for English in Classical Studies.  That way I can be even more familiar with the classical literature.

    I have met so many new people the last few weeks.  Today I had lunch and Frozos with my new friend Felix.  He told me all about the Core retreats.  Core is a Christian group on Campus and I have never been on a retreat.  I think it would be fun to give it a shot!

    Tomorrow I am going with my potential suitemates – Marlys, Jackie, and Allie to pick what room we want to live in – in Sobrato!!!  I’m so excited!!!!!
