'Da Dunes

-
Today I got back from my three day, two night trip to the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes with four cabins of 11-year-olds. Basically, it was an adventure to remember. But I'm always going to remember the trip I think.
So, you know those moments when you look up at the sky or you're in a big crowd and you suddenly realize just how big the world is and how tiny you are? Well, I've never had one of those moments until my first night on this trip when I was sitting outside looking up at the stars. There are little-to-none lights at the dunes and you can see so many stars out there and all I could think was 'Wow, the sky sure is beautiful and huge tonight.' It was so quiet and still, and it was one of those rare moments when I was alone for two seconds and it was such a great thing to experience.

Hot Damn

WHAM BAM, HOT DAMN WHO THE HELL ARE WE? WE'RE THE LOVELY SISTERS OF DPHIE! Wow my past week has been crazy. I really should be writing my essay right now, but I can't actually be entirely bothered about it (the subject is just horrible and it's pretty terrible to write, but I'm still going to get it done tonight, it's pretty much due. But whatever). Homework is piling up and I'm kind of struggling but I know that I almost work better under pressure. It makes me more focused, and I'm more that willing to pull a couple of sleepless nights in order to get work done. Anyway, the past two days have been very, very Greek. Friday was Song and Skit, where all of the Greek orgs on campus get together and perform a 10 minute (at most) skit where you can sing and dance. You're meant to be funny and it's okay to make fun of yourself  or other orgs or something. We did a spoof on some Miley Cyrus songs and it was pretty funny (we got to do the Simba lift u...

I Should Be A Model

This last Thursday I got back from from visiting my brother, sister-in-law, and my niece (she's six months old and absolutely adorable) with my mom. We did a lot of super cool stuff over the course of three days there and two days spent traveling there. Besides this we also visited the Midtown Global Market, had Nepalese food, and my brother and I went on a ten-mile-abouts bike ride. It was super great to be able to go out and visit them. They live in another state, so we don't get to see them a lot, and this is also only the second time that I've gotten to see my niece, so going out to see them was a nice chance to visit. My ma and I also made a sight-seeing trip out of the ride to them (It's almost 11 hours, so breaks are nice) and split it up into two days. We got to see this abandoned town in the UP, Fayette, which is super cool and I recommend visiting it if you ever get the chance. Here are some of the photos from the trip:  I posed for some great shots (I...

Roots and Leaves

In the new member ed classes we do in my sorority we do this activity called roots and leaves, where we draw a tree (it doesn't have to be anything special) and the leaves represent qualities about yourself that are obvious or easily visible; whereas the roots are things about you that not everyone knows. Now, the one that I did with the sorority, I didn't put everything down that I really thought belonged on there, so I made my own. I think I'll keep on adding onto it, but I thought I'd share it with you guys for right now.  Goodnight lovelies! TheFabKid
