Freezing! It has been so darn cold... but I kind of like it to tell you the truth. The only stinky thing is that my coat zipper broke so I get a little cold without being able to zip it up outside. I did ok on my English exam! Got an AB on it so I was happy enough with that. I hate it so getting a B in it would make me content. I have been relatively busy the last week or two. Last weekend I went to Wausau with Sara to get my bridesmaid dress fitted. It is really beautiful and I like it a lot. Its strapless and floor length... harvest gold. Very pretty. When we were there we went to her highschools football game Friday night and then a band competition that her cousin/bridesmaid was in. It was pretty cool and it made me nostalgic for the good ol' marching band days in highschool. We also made cookies and pies which I loved :) Not mention the home cooked meals were amazing! We had salmon one night that was delicious! This week I have been keeping busy with homework and volunteering. Wednesday night I volunteered at a local assisted living complex and helped decorate for Halloween. Sara, Phil, and I are going to try and help out 1 or 2 times per month. Next time we hope to play some games and actually interact with the residents there. Later that night I went to a presentation about Iraq where I man spoke about his experience there and he showed his own documentary. A lot of the stuff made me really angry, but I won't get into that... it is to depressing and it would take forever to explain it all. This morning I took a trip to the grocery store all by myself. I went at 8am and there was hardly anyone around. It was pretty enjoyable actually. Lots of old people! :) Well, must be going now. Adios!
