I woke up to a beautiful day in Burlington, VT. It's been nice on and off for the past few days, crazy New England weather. Yesterday was cloudy and cold and we even saw some snow, but today it's fantastically sunny. Complete whiplash weather wise.
It's always nice to take a break from the day and sit on the stoop on the second floor. It overlooks the back parking lot and the tops of the buildings on Church St. The view of the lake during sunset is unbelievably beautiful, but today it was nice to just stop in my tracks and snap a shot of the view, it never ceases to amaze me, even though today was a chilly day.
Andrew and I spent a nice hour or so at lunch in the dining hall and I wanted to get another updated shot of McDonald Hall, which is the most beautiful dorm on campus in my opinion, I could just be biased because it's where I live, that's beside the point though. After this I ate shit on an elevated part of sidewalk near the stairs. Good thing I broke the fall with my face, all in tact though. Andrew almost peed himself laughing, his legs buckled and he was crying his eyes out for a good five minutes.
After that lovely ordeal, I spent the afternoon watching movies and enjoying the time alone in the room that I rarely get. My friend Alec got a hold of me at one point and told me that my birthday gift had been delivered! He came down and I got an O.A.R shirt! It was one of the best gifts I received, next to the books I got from Andrew and the scarf and gift cards from Gareth. I'm a new fan of O.A.R, but I absolutely love them. Andrew was a little jealous, he introduced me to O.A.R in the first place and he doesn't have a shirt yet. I'm sure mine would fit him, snuggly :)
I'm writing this from work in the Admissions Office right now. Now finally to talk about the title of this post! Last night I was browsing Netflix, since I just got an account, and I came across The Wild Thornberry's, the entire first season! It was one of my FAVORITE shows on Nickelodeon when I was younger and to relive it is so fun. I've watched three episodes so far and it's funny how short they are. When I was little, each episode and each big adventure seemed to last forever, like a full length feature film, now they're quick and simple. It's funny how differently you see things as you get older. It's even funnier that I can still say the lines along with some of the episodes!
Whelp, I might as well focus on something productive in work. I still have to make up my midterm for Introduction to Psychology and a missing assignment :( I've got a lot to catch up on this week, but it's hard when things keep piling up. Argh!
