But I know when to take advantage of a situation, and that's what I'm doing today. Skipping classes, loading up on food (mostly noodles which is my favorite anyway), and lots of lemon and tea. Then I'm watching TV until I feel better, after all you can't really be productive when you're sick right? =D
So if you feel bad for me, please stop by with noodle soup or more lemon =D I will be forever grateful and will return the favor on your "LIFE SUCKS" day. Anyway just wanted to post up a pic taken during NERR with Alpha, Mu, and Delta girls =D
p.s i am not that dark.. its the camera's fault.
Amherst Massachusetts
The Northeastern Regional Rally for Sigma Psi Zeta Sorority was held in Amherst Massachusetts this semester. We left Rochester around 5pm and got to our very sketchy motel room around 11pm. Apparently the owner leaves the place at 10pm so he just left our rooms open with the keys inside. I was kinda nervous about it but the place was pretty decent, and we managed to fit nine people in one room, and six people in the other. Unfortunately I didn't get the bed even though I drove....
Anyway I've decided that Massachusetts is one of the prettier states that I have been too, I wouldn't mind living there. There were trees everywhere and leaves of all different colors. It was gorgeous. The places we passed had a small town feel to it even though I am sure Amherst is a pretty big city. Check out the different colors of fall in Massachusetts. Too bad the whether was pretty bad while we were there. I had planned to take more photos, but got paranoid of the rain messing up my camera.
I also ended up running an errand of mine for my study abroad application. The path to get to the actual building was a little sketchy and it ended up taking me a lot longer than I had expected so I ate lunch in a nearby restaurant. It was like a Pho bar or something. The food was so so, but the inside of the restaurant was nice. The tunnel before the restaurant. I just thought it was pretty.
Then on the way home we made a pit stop at the Turning Stone Casino for some gambling =D Very spontaneous trip, and I lost @10 bucks. But my littles both won money =DOverall the trip was pretty fun but extremely tiring! My head is still reeling from the lack of sleep, which I will not be catching up on tonight due to a lab report. Argh...

Fall Semester Blues
The semester is already half-way done but my workload is still the same. So frustrating. But the good news is that Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and shortly after that is Christmas. Must start shopping for gifts.. hmm.
I swear time goes by so fast when I'm in Rochester. I always have exams and papers due, sorority events, RA stuff to take care off, and other stuff that pops outta nowhere. Like last night's most random midnight fire alarm because someone was cooking fried chicken. Which made me hungry.. good thing everything was closed. Anyway since the beginning of the semester I've accumulated a few pictures that I wanted to share. The first one is from the Memorial Art Gallery's Art Fair in downtown Rochester New York. I went so I could buy Kettle Corn Popcorn that this local company makes which is so good, and stuck around to walk off the calories from the huge bag of popcorn that I inhaled. These glass artworks were so pretty but very pricey.
This piece was a windchime. I wish I could make or own something like this. There was a sort of windchime art piece in the movie Autumn in New York with Winona Ryder that was amazing. Can't find a picture of it though.
And then just recently the UR's Scare Fair hosted by the Rush Rhees Library. They opened up the balcony at the top of the library to 350 students. They do it every year but this was my first time going up. The last three years I either had lab or class, or just forgot about it. It was fun, me and my lil Christy ran around the library to complete the scavenger hunt (which is hazing by the way according to the UR's Greek policy) and then we went up the sketchy elevator that looks like it belongs in a horror flick. This is the view from the top of the academic quad and me and collision.
Next trip is Amherst for Convention and then NYC for Thanksgiving =D Post more pics up from those roadtrips later. AFTER I write my 3 ten page term papers that are due at the end of the month. Argh.. wish me lots of freakin luck!
