Sweet Nectar

Today was a progressive day, which is really a pretty good kind of day to have and it was unexpected. I did not sleep well last night. It took me forever to fall asleep and I didn't do very well at staying asleep either. Since my phone screen is no longer working, I can't use my phone as an alarm either, so B woke me up this morning and it startled me half to death for some reason. Then I was just grumpy. Today was also probably one of the most dangerous days of my pedestrian life. Just walking from my dorm to chapel, I saw three people slip and fall. I feel like you can tell when the roads are bad when you see a lot of cars in the ditch. Today, it was people in snowbanks. Taking the sidewalk was a risk. Everything was just one thin layer of ice. And as if that wasn't scary enough, I had to dodge the caterpillar snow plows that were driving around everywhere. I almost got hit twice! I never knew simply walking to class or chapel could be so dangerous! Thank you, bipolar Michigan weather. I played catch in the grass without a coat two days ago... And now I'm scared to walk on the sidewalk.

Anyways, I managed to make it to chapel without slipping and dying. Chapel was okay. I didn't really agree with the speaker so much, and I may or may not have slapped Corey for touching my ankle. After chapel, I had class which went pretty well today. I went to lunch, and they had chicken and mashed potato bowls, which are one of my favorites. B and I played ping pong, and then I went off to my next two classes. Social Stratification was boring today, which is rare for that class, but choir went pretty well. I asked George to teach me how to lean with it rock with it. He mostly just laughed at me. I hope he gives me a real lesson. Then my Soulja Boy dance would be complete. I ate dinner with Cassie and worked on hw in the library with Emily and Eric. And then, wonderfulness continued to expand through my evening.

First, I was signed up to scorekeep for an intramural basketball game tonight. But.... IT WAS A FORFEIT!!!! Which meant I got paid $8 to dink around in my dorm room for an hour :) Those are always the best. And then we had our volleyball game tonight against the Apartments/K houses, and I may honestly say that it was the most fun volleyball game I've ever been a part of. Our team was on TOP of it tonight! Everyone played soooo awesome! And we won! And it was so much fun to be a part of! Oh my goodness I felt like a proud parent. And I got my first teammate butt tap of the year. I don't even know who it was. But it made it feel like I was on a high school sports team again :) It was seriously so much fun. Then I got back, and found out that SOCIAL WORK PRACTICE WITH INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES GOT CANCELLED!!!!!! That is my least favorite class this semester, and is also my earliest class, so I get to sleep in tomorrow :) I seriously did a dance and jumped and screamed and man it was just a great night! Love those kinds of nights. Now I'm working on a paper. Which isn't the best, but I can take it after all the wonderful blessings of the evening.

Good ole Livia. Here's a classic summer picture of us, tank tops, pit stains, doofy smiles and all. In hopes that it will encourage warm weather to come quickly, of course. But seriously. Best friends with this girl since kindergarten. And I don't see that changing anytime soon :) Love you Liv!
