Hey everybody!

It has been three years since I was a brand new student, fresh out of high school. I'm currently in my fourth year. I started this blog in an attempt to keep my family, friends and any prospective students up to date with my life at the University of Lethbridge. I'm continuing with it this year as it worked well. Thanks for reading!

November 11th - 14th 2011

So this weekend wasn't as boring as I thought it would be. Everyone except like 5 of us went home for the long-weekend but we managed to have fun anyways.

It started off easy. Alicia and I got up early to watch the Remembrance Day Ceremonies in Ottawa, Edmonton and Lethbridge. We wen't to the one in Lethbridge but it was at noon so we actually caught 3 ceremonies in one day! It wasn't the nicest outside but in Lethbridge, wind is nothing. While waiting for the bus back to the University, Alicia and I went to the Bargain store and bought some Christmas decorations for our rooms. That night, Kurt, Alicia, Casey and I went to the Void (kinda like a game room for rezzors) and played a few games of pool and watched "The Pagemaster" and "Ella Enchanted". At 1 a.m. the R.A. on duty came and closed the void so we had to go back to the common room where I showed Kurt Labyrinth for the first time! We now have a new convert Shannon! At 3 a.m. we decided to go to bed.
Saturday, I decided to start decorating my room and my door.

Alicia and I spent hours cutting out paper snowflakes. My room looks really cool now, including some plastic Christmas balls suspended from my roof. 
Sunday was left to studying and we got a surprising amount done. But Alicia wanted to go out and take photo's before the snowstorm was to hit Monday so I put on my formal dress that I bought and we went out and took artistic photo's. I'll put some up on my blog once she's finished editing them.

Monday was back to classes as usual. My Psychology midterm was today and I got 80% on it! All this week there's a poster sale going on in the Atrium and you can get posters as big as the wall for $20. I bought a few for really cheap and I'm super excited about them!
This one was called solitude

Van Gogh's "Peach Blossoms"

This one is "Apple Blossoms"
I also got a few more as Christmas presents so I won't show them here.
Now I'm back to studying for my Geography midterm tomorrow and my Economics midterm on Thursday.
