Wow...so I was really tired before writing this one last time...let's try this again.
Well folks, yet another one under the belt. This experience isn't that bad...
So let's catch ya up. Last weekend (Sept 22 & 23)...That was probably the most unproductive experience ever...and I loved it! Seriously, I did do some stuff, but like nothing that I was supposed to. It was sooooo relaxing.
Saturday I decided to just take it easy. I rolled out of bed (really, just woke up and stayed in my bed with my computer) around 11:30ish, and had to start figuring out that night. It was decided that we were going to participate in a Leukemia/Cancer walk downtown. Before heading down, I decided that I should do something productive, so I did some dishes and vacuumed...so domesticated.
Well, a few of us met downtown around 4:45ish to register for the 5K walk/run through the streets, piazzas and parks of downtown Lugano. It was such a fun time - 5 of us students and thousands of locals walking for a great cause. It went by so quickly, too. I think we were done with the walk in like 35 minutes...is that really 5K? Whatever... After that, there was a free pasta dinner and entertainment. The band was crazy - we were the only ones that would clap for them, so as repay, they sang a few songs in English (none of which I knew, but it's the thought that counts...right?). We were going to get going as early as 8:30, but there were dancing lessons to follow! And who can pass up a deal like that?!? It was advertised as "fun for the whole family"...and...well...I think they should fire their promotions person...Basically, I felt both dirty and illegal for what this man was teaching us. And, to top it off, there was a sea of children in front of me doing the same moves. To the parents to the side, it was the emperor's new clothes...nothing was bothering them. There was this kinda old, creepy guy walking around. Yea - little kids + dirty dancing + creepy old man = scary thing....
The night was fun, weird, and to top it off, Kadie and I watched the Amazing Race for a few hours! Woot Woot!
Sunday...kinda similar story - but this one starts off with a brunch across the street in Girasole. It was one of their "residence events" but let's face it, Kadie and I are basically part of the family! Michael and Adam (RA extraordinaires) manned the kitchen and pumped out some yummy foods. Well, that lasted until a bit after 1, then a few more Amazing Race episodes (I am getting this place hooked one person at a time!) and then some quick shopping at BP (our Sunday shopping stop - everything else is closed).
The rest of the day...I can't even remember. That's how eventful it was. Wow...I think I read a little, maybe worked on a paper...caught up on some emails...yea, that's it. I'm cool!
