Murder Mystery Night and Saturday

Bre and I hosted a murder mystery night at our place on Friday. This was the first one we did in Eugene and I was somewhat nervous, but it went really well. We had Rachel, AJ, Alisha, Kent, David, and Andrew all attend. The group mixed well and everyone had fun. The food turned out good (I only used one recipe so I was not quite sure) and Bre decorated. Everyone did a great job at dressing up (pictures hopefully to come). Afterwords Kent and Andrew helped us clean up and then we all played Imagineiff it was really fun. I was thinking about it and it was one of the first times I have actually felt comfortable enough to be myself since moving to Eugene, which made it just that much more relaxing. Saturday Bre and I went to the Huntoons for lunch and then we played a cut throat game of Phase Ten. Us three ladies all ganged up on Chris and yet somehow he managed to win at the last second (I was winning since round one).

Spring Break

So...are drama director admonished us to get as much rest as possible over the break because we will be so busy the two weeks after. I have taken him up on this advice and really not done anything the last few days. On Monday Bre, G-ma, and I went and got are haircuts at the Springfield beauty school (only $4 a hair cut). We then went and saw Sherlock Holmes at the cheap theater. I rather enjoyed the movie it is not meant for children and it is rather dark. But I thought the characters were humorous and the acting was really good. The whole thing about dark magic being used for good until corrupted and then all things spiritual were just scientific trickery spoke a lot about our culture. Also Sherlock Holmes was a lot more violent and dirtier than in the older books and movies which also speaks a lot about our culture. After the movie we all went back to G-ma and G-pa's to have tea. After tea Bre and I went to work all in all it was a very fun and full day.

Winter Term

So this last term was very good and uneventful (for me at least). I have finished my finals and am getting ready for next term. I took dad to fly out of Seattle last night and well...I knew I needed to go on the I-5 S but we had been on the I-5 N all day so when I saw the signs I just took it without a second thought. It was so dark that I did not relive I had not been that way before...So when I thought I was 1/3 of the way home I saw the signs to go through immigrations to cross into Canada sigh it was a LONG night. But I made it safe and sound (I was prepared to get a hotel if needed). So ummm yeah I will try to keep this more up to date...
