Sisterhood is sweet

Hola!
This weekend was pretty good...

Friday...Tom came up, which (of course) made my night! We just hung out at the apartment, went to Mexacali and Marble Slab, and watched Conan, and stuff like that. It was a good time.

Saturday... Sadly, Tom had to leave with Davey for Theta Xi's big brother/lil brother retreat at Jackson Lake. I spent the entire day like a hermit-in my apartment and alone. I don't know why I did this. But I did. That night I had plans to go out with Jessica, and to make it even more fun, Kelsey and Erin joined us to go to see Just Like Heaven. That sounded sarcastic, but I wasn't being that way; I was excited they came too! I LOVE THIS MOVIE!! It rocked my face off. I think guys will like it too, and the guys that were in the theater seemed to find it pretty funny, but I don't know those ppl (undoubtedly there with their girlfriends and wives), so maybe they were faking their laughter. I doubt it. It sort of made me think of How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days in that is just had a lot of really good humor and a cute story line. Plus, I love Mark Ruffalo and Reese Witherspoon, so it just made it that much better.

Sunday...Today was our Gamma Phi Beta sisterhood retreat, and we road trip'd it to Lake Hartwell in South Carolina. It was pretty fun- the ride there and back was fun because I was with Jessica, Kelsey, Laura and Sophe. (Laura is Kelsey's little, and Sophe is my grand-lil (Jessica's lil)!) I had a blast riding around with them today. There was lots of yummy food provided at the retreat, and we also had a ton of fun swimming around in the lake. Now I know why Ben, Tom, and Will like to freak me out by talking about "freshwater sharks" and "catfish the size of VW Bugs" and whatever else when we go to Jackson Lake. Basically, I was swimming around and two sorority sisters, Natalie and Lauren, were with me. I turned to them and said..."So have yall seen Lake Placid?" Them: "No, why?" Me: "I haven't either, but it looks scary. It's about this HUGE aligator who is in a lake. It keeps eating people and their pets and stuff. It's gigantic!" Them: " DON'T SAY THAT!! You are scarying me! shut up!" Me : (evil laugh) "HAHAHAHA!!!" But I still hate it when the guys do it to me. At least Jackson Lake's a lot less likely to have a huge aligator than a huge catfish that can swallow you! *shudder* ugh.
When I got back from the lake, I came here and put up groceries and stuff. My hair was super curly from the lake making it wet and having it up on the ride home. I wish I could get it to do this whenever I wanted it to. It looks more natural than with a curling iron or some other way. But oh well. I am gonna go do some Spanish work now! Boo to returning to reality.

Love,
Megs
