Courtney’s Haven

A Summation of the Weekend’s Events

PROLOGUE: I am going to be a good child, and I wish to talk about how my weekend did go. Boy, was it fun!

COMMENTARY:

FRIDAY: First of all, I had a “walk,” in my lastest class (intro to biomedical engineering from 2-3 pm) which is the university’s way of saying that you don’t have to go to class. :) So, I was VERY excited! Anywho, I had already planned on chilling with Joe Harris, one of my camp counselors friends because he was in college station visiting Allison, another one of my counselors friends from camp, and it turns out that Joe and Allison were dating, which was a surprise to me only because i wasn’t warned ahead of time. But that makes me happy that they were dating—they are really cute and “perfect” (no one can be perfect) together. so around 12, joe calls me and he’s like, “lunch?”. And i’m like, “of course.” So, they come to pick me up, and i’m really excited cuz i haven’t seen these kids in a really long time. Recalection of camp memories. :). We go to Freebirds, and I eat a free bird (not free…it was $5.00). yum yum yum. Then, joe and allison were planning on going to get joe some new shoes, and they ask if i wanted to go. I did. We went to Goody’s, a store almost like Ross and TJ Max. Joe bought shoes, and I bought this really awesome jacket (originally $50) for $14. Now if that’s not a deal, i really don’t know what is. So, after that, we proceed to run errands at this junior high, where Allison’s dad works, to drop off a movie at allison’s mom’s workplace, Bryan High School. I’m not quite sure the purpose of that, but we did something—I know. Then, Joe and Allison mentioned that they were going to the Rennaiisance Festival tomarrow, and they asked if I wanted to go. I was totaally thinking, “HECK YEA!”. So, we went to Appletree to buy a discounted ticket. It was only $11, and I figure that for what I got out of it, it was worth it. Then, we proceed to Allison’s house to just chill and watch some sort of movie. We went to Blockbuster, and we rented Orange County, the one with Jack Black and lots of comedic segments. It was a joy. Then, i made dinner for allison and joe. It was some rendition of fajita meat mixed with egg, all wrapped in a warmed and lightly toasted flour tortilla. I was impressed with myself, and so was everyone else. Then, we decided to go to the bowling alley, which we did. I got a 35, allison; 64; joe, 66. It was a close and good game. Anyways, we went back to the house, and I spent the night in allison’s bed. It was glorious…a real house and a real bed…yum. Nite nite

SATURDAY:

We went to the Renaissance Festival, and boy, did I see lots of random things. I took some pictures, but I have yet to get them developed yet. I think that there were too many loin cloths for my liking, but anyways, it was a really fun time, and I throughly enjoyed myself. (i.e. well worth my $11). After that, we went back to the house, and I think that i took a nap, while watching a movie. Then, I helped prepare the house for people that were coming over for a fajita dinner. It was this a family friend’s family. They were the Hamiltons, and it turns out that Dr. (mr?) Hamilton is the head of the Nuclear and Radiological Health Engineering at A&M. that was pretty awesome, cuz after he found out what mine was, he was like, “if you need anything…questions or whatever…just come and see me” so, I have a connection now…yay. And I have thought about doing radiological health instead of biomed. it seems to be more orientatated to chemistry than to physics. (i like chemistry better). So, we had fajitas, which was good, and homemade apple pie…yum. They left and then we all watched a movie, Tommy boy w/ Chris Farley. pretty dang funny, I might add. I ended the night with sleep.

SUNDAY:

so, I’m here now, in the dorm room, about to start studying the brain for psychology. I plan on going to church today, go swimming (i haven’t had much time for exercise), study engineering , and possibly go visit a friend.

My mom is also meeting me for lunch because she is on her way back home from Dallas, doing the AARP Triathlon. But that’s at 4, and i plan on getting stuff done right now, so I must go.
