So there was this time last night when I was like "hey! I should do all my homework on Saturday. That way I'll have a free Sunday and a unstressful Monday!"
So I tried. I really did! I woke up at 8:45 this morning and sat at my computer for THREE HOURS STRAIGHT! I truly did, and I finished a Rels paper.
And then Bekah phoned and Kjer phoned. Yep... and then Kjer came over on the ferry. So we went to Fort Langley and wandered through antique shoppes (you need to spell it with the extra "pe" when you're talking ancient artifacts, people). And we ate lunch at Wendell's and went to a hat store where there (honestly!) were ladies in there buying hats for cocktail parties this weekend! I felt exotic, and like I should be off to the races or something.
Then I came back to my dorm and really thought about my homework! I did! But then it was cooler to go for a hike through the endangered-snail-infested-back-40 to the Town Pantry to buy eggs and oil. Alas, they sold neither, so we bought candy and chips instead.
BUT! then back at Trinity we bought 2 eggs and a small cup of oil with our dinner. And came back to bake some smokin' awesome just-add-eggs-oil-and-water M & M brownies. And then we had to make popcorn too.
And we watched "Bend It Like Beckham" too. which caused us to come back and have a sweet East Indian dance party.
Next we started playing soccer with the leftover balloons from Marie's birthday on Tuesday. And then I remembered that there was still a soccer ball out on the rugby field! so Linoleum (just kidding, it's Linette), Jen, Jess, Lauren and I went out there in the pitch dark. and we got freaked out by this scary white sign, but Jen and Lin and I went pretty close to it.
Next we went to the highway and Jen and I crossed the road. and then lay down on it, like they do in "The Notebook." but that was short lived because lots of cars go zipping down Glover Rd... meanwhile, Jess and Lin were rolling down a hill and Lauren was making sure they didn't fall into the pond (oi, ditch itch!).
There was also this creepy white van and lo and behold, it was unlocked! but we didn't do much there.
we went to the Lower Caf next. and on the heated waiting rack someone's french fries were ready. his name was Vernon. but Vernon wasn't there. So we talked to this English/H-Kin major named Chris who told us the extensive and well-remembered story of Gilgamesh. Poor guy, he faced so many crazy trials in his life, and only succeeded in helping some snake...
Then we stole Vern's fries and booked it. Poor Vernon.
Then we met up with Cameron and Brendan and talked to them in the freezing winter night. It was chilly, it sure was. And we decided to Sac Lauren's Mento. It was a riot!
And that, Professor, is the reason why my new testament papers, my psych assignment, my english reading, and my history studying isn't finished. I'll try again next weekend....
