Easter was really wonderful this year. Not only did Good Friday bring me a great prayer and the introduction to an old new friend that I haven’t considered but Easter went smoothly and the church was pretty full for it. Everyone and their mothers showed up on Easter Sunday and I was more than thrilled when even Jimmy and Sheena showed up with Collin and Caylie. We sang two traditional songs and some contemporary music…I didn’t feel uncomfortable wearing a skirt and I got some compliments from the woman of the congregation on how I looked…that made my confidence in myself go from the 3 that it’s been recently to a 9.5. After church [which went smoothly] I was ushered back home where I played Trivia Pursuit with Tiffany, her boyfriend Seth, My mom, Cynthia, and Tyler. We played guys against girls and the guys only won because when the time came for Tiffany and Seth to leave they were in the lead. I got to finish my Easter night with a fun half an hour chat with Craig. He told me that he would call me again around 3 or 4 in the morning so I spent the night after I got back home working out by dancing in my room to whatever song that was playing on my iPod. When Craig called I wished him a safe trip…hopefully nothing bad happens to him this week. I realize that his being on this trip is a good thing, it will help us both have time away from each other to think about things to talk about. With our relationship being simply Long distance at this point I feel that the conversations we are having are being formed on the basis that we both just want to hear each others voices because we miss each other…therefore the subject matter is kind of boring and becoming more and more routine.
In University I’m getting to the final push of the semester. I have a test tomorrow in intercultural communication and I’m in group projects in Schools and Societies and Christian Ethics. I think I’ve been becoming lazy about my work in those classes and I’ve failed to get any of my work done with my groups. I hoping to be productive this afternoon when I work with Melissa on my Schools and Societies project.
When it comes to greek life everything is going well. I’m in the process of planning the Greek Summit with other members of Inter-greek council and because Craig is out of town and will be away and not able to come and be my date for DT formal I have asked Matt Hill to accompany me. Everything on the social front seems to be working out.

Sadly at work one of my favorite chefs was fired for stealing for stealing a woman’s purse at work. I’m getting to better know the other people who work in Sorin but sadly outside of work I’m not allowed to associate myself with them because of Student Hamline Worker relations policies. The people I work with are really cool though.

I have class but that’s a quick run down.

Craig…I miss you have fun in Egypt!
