What a difference...

What a difference a day can make! For example, Sunday February 24, 2008 was a terrible day. I had a test the next day and absolutely no motivation to study for it. I would rather spend my time doing other great and important things. I was bothered by something and it added to the frustrations. I spent much of the day in the library with a headache. Now, contrast that to Monday February 25, 2008 which was an incredible day! I gave up studying early, so I had lots of sleep and I was feeling good. I love that everytime I take a test I just feel great afterwards. Whether I did poorly or well, it is the best feeling to be done with it and not have to look back. I bought a space heater which is genius, I ate a great meal, had a fun FHE in boston, pondered the craziness of life and opened my soul just a little in the presence of awesome company. Moral of the story: All bad days are followed by great ones! Side note to everyone: When you have a great day like this, try to go to bed early cause I am wicked tired and I am paying a heavy price right now as I can barely open my eyes and I have to go to work for 5 hours...

The wedding

It was my brother's wedding this weekend and I got to go to Utah for all the festivities. It was not all fun, it came with a cost. I missed a test that I have to make up at the end of the semester and I didn't have much time to study for a test that I had this morning. I am a little upset at my performance on today's test and I have been trying to study, but I don't feel like it. So instead, I will post pictures of the wedding. It was a great wedding. I flew in on friday afternoon just in time to pick up my tux and go to the wedding dinner. Saturday was the wedding and the reception and then chillin with the family and playing some wii with my cousins. Then I was back to boston on sunday morning. Probably the shortest cross-country trip of my life, but it was worth it. I am so happy for Tania and CJ. I think they will have a lifetime of great experiences because they are extraordinary people.

Clearly decorating the car is the best part

Even more of the car (like I said it's the best part)

As they are looking into the car filled with baloons and other things that blow up as well as cereal. Maybe they are a little disgusted?! That just makes it even more fun for us...

Is it the weekend again yet?

I have so much homework to do right now and instead I just keep thinking about how much fun I had this weekend. Can it just be the weekend all the time? I went candle pin bowling for my first time ever and it was so fun! For those of you who are not familiar with it, I hear it's a new england thing. You roll a small ball down the lane and you get 3 chances on each frame because it is substantially harder than regular bowling because the pins are skinny (hense the name). That is why I only scored like 50 points and still managed to beat some people:) Don't get mad T, you can beat me at other things. It's so much fun!
Then I played guitar hero on the wii for several hours (I love that game). Then I drove home a little too fast and got pulled over, but alas it was a great weekend and I didn't get a ticket, yahoo!! Sunday I was invited to dinner, which was homemade cafe rio and it was delicious! I made homemade salsa which was also amazing. Then I just chilled with some really great people from my two favorite houses in Brighton, MA. I watched the super bowl and I was voting for the pats, but I guess they didn't really wanna win. It's a good thing I don't really care about sports much so that didn't affect my great weekend. I had trifle (sp?) can't forget about that and I watched 'House' after the super bowl. Just in case you couldn't tell by now, it was an awesome weekend!
