Best Weekend Ever...

So this weekend has been one for the books.
Let's see if I can remember all of it. :)

Friday, the 13th

This "unlucky" day involved a disgusting exam of linguistics. I failed. Probably. My exam taking skills are not up to par obviously! I can't study, and I can't concentrate in class. Poo. See, I told you. College is not for me. ;) Well after the bloody exam, I went to apply for the lovely position of Assistant House Manager at my job. Woot. Finished that and then I came back to my confining dorm room to take a shower. Clay came over and we hung out till I had to go to work. Before my work call, we ventured off to Alpine Bagel. I got a delicious bagel sandwich with 2 pickles! My work call was for the movies at the union. This call has some good hours. 6.6 hours to be exact. Double woot. I started out working with my friend, Amanda, and she's pretty awesome. Her birthday is on the 23rd of February; this is a pretty significant day and I accidentally forgot when her birthday was. GAH, Elaine! We had a good little chat and then she switched places with Keosha. Keosha is pretty cool too. In the Great Hall, there was a semi-formal for Campus Crusades. They were playing some pretty funky music that was cracking us up. So I want you to picture... Prince of Bel-Air playing in the background and a bunch of white kids dancing barefoot. Totally high school but it looked pretty fun. At 11 PM, there was another showing of Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist and I decided to watch that one because Clay was coming to it with CJ. The movie was pretty entertaining. Certain phrases were thrown around like "I love you so much it's retarded". Hell-arious. So then Clay waited for me and we walked home. It was late and Abby and I were hungry so I ordered a medium pizza from Papa John's. Delicioso! We watched some late night TV and then went to bed. :)

Saturday, the 14th

So I got to sleep in!!!! Bloody amazing. Lenoir Dining Hall was next on the schedule. It was okay. I had a to-do list. Gross. Well Abby and I had to do laundry. So Valentine's Day became LAUNDRY DAY (Jason Mraz's great song Geek in the Pink) and I have a funny story. So Abby and I went down to the basement to get to the washing machines and on the way down I checked our mail. We got a postcard from Vincent wishing us a Happy Valentine's Day. It was very sweet. Okay, now for the juicy part. Abby and I start loading up the machine with the clothes. We finished, and then Abby TAKES OFF HER... I can't tell you. Sorry, She might smack me. But just know it was hysterically funny. Whew, so funny! Sorry... Well while we were waiting for the laundry to finish, we were doing work while we watched some LOVE movies on USA. Good stuff. I am in Salsa Sentido. It's a club that has salsa lessons for 9 weeks on each Saturday. Tons of fun. Me gusta. I love the music and I'm learning interesting things like salsa fingers. Have me show them to you sometime. I totally will. Okay >>> so now I am venturing home. I call Clay. We were going to a Hilary Hahn concert that night, and I wasn't ready to leave yet. I got to pick everything we were going to do that day because he has to do everything for that special day that signifies that we have been dating for a year. So I hadn't decided on a restaurant and I hadn't made a reservation. So I knew it would be packed and we wouldn't have that much time before the concert. Yikes. So I called him and asked him if he just wanted to eat a snack. He sounded really distracted. The fool wasn't paying attention to me. Yet he agreed to my plan, so I was satisfied. I got to my dorm and ran to the bathroom real fast. So I came back into my room to start getting ready for the night, whom should I see but Mr. Clayton Westbrook himself looking all snazzy in his suit and holding a bouquet of roses. I was completely surprised to see him. It turns out he was driving past me as I was walking to my dorm because he had to drive to get those roses and got a little distracted. He's pretty amazing. Well, I drank in the scent of the roses and then we went to Starbucks to get a snack. I got some DELICIOUS passion tea lemonade and he got a sandwich from Ram's Market. We ventured back to Parker and I got changed.... and then we proceeded onward to Memorial Hall where the concert was to take place. Clay met my work buddies including Lorry the hilarious cop. Hilary Hahn was freaking spectacular. That woman can play the violin. She was perfect. Accompanying her was this pianist who had major slumping problems but her page turner was my music class T.A. Very coool. So Clay and I were pretty tired and her music started putting us to sleep. I suggested we leave before the last song was over. He agreed. I decided on the delectable makings of Biski's. SO GOOD. Then we proceeded to walk back to my dorm. It was a pretty fun long walk and some good conversation. When we got back to the dorm, we had a lovely story time with Abby. > Sleep.

Sunday, the 15th

Sunday is kind of a blur. But what I remember... AHM position at work. Then I went to Buns with Clay and Christine. My new favorite restaurant! This was also a great day.

  1. since I have a paper due in 4 hours, I didn't read all of this. I did, however, read the last part. all I have to say is that no Carolina life is complete without downing a loaded triple with fries at Buns.

    i've done it twice. i've also taken roughly 20 years off my life as a result.
