home sweet home

yes i'm still here! i've been home now for almost two weeks. it feels great to be home! i love just being here with my parents in a town i grew up in. so far i've just done a lot of babysitting, went to a graduation party, went to the beach, have tanned by the pool, had a few bonfires, and today i'm going to see the sex and the city movie. it's been pretty chill so far at home. this summer i'm just babysitting as far as work. unfortunately most of my friends are leaving: i have a few friends moving to dc for work and one of my friends is going to africa. so this summer (maybe my last real college summer) will be spent making money, getting into shape, and spending time with my parents and the rest of my family. i'm hoping for a fun and relaxing summer!

!!!!!!!!!!!

SUMMER WILL OFFICIALLY BEGIN TOMORROW! i have one more debate for my last class and then i will be free for my summer months. no papers, no exams, no studying, no all nighters, just playing with little kids all day!! yay! junior year is over and i will be a rising senior as of tomorrow at 2pm!!!!! yay!!!!

she who has the will to win cannot be beat

20-14. not too shabby. this is the first time in 5 years that this softball program has won 20 games in a season. we went on an 11 game winning streak and ended the season on a very high note. unfortunately we did not make it to the tournament but we did have a great year. this team was really great and i loved playing with all of them. i will miss the seniors dearly and try to take from them their best qualities and bring them into next season. as for school, i only have 11 more days left until i leave but i have SOOOOO much work to do. where did junior year go? it's crazy how the time is flying. but the sun is finally out and warming us up all the way up here in ct. only a few more days and then i'll be free for the summer, where i have to work as much as possible or my mom might kill me! can't wait!!

i've seen better days.....

ugh. we are scheduled to play our last game of softball today against wesleyan. unfortunately, we did not make the nescac tournament this year. We are still waiting to see if we possibly could receive an at-large bid to get into the ncaa playoffs, but we still haven't heard anything yet. this season was one of our best yet, we just fell short when it came to crunch time. but on the upside we can get two more wins today, at home, on senior day and finish our season on a very high note! another plus is that school is very rapidly winding down, only 5 more days of classes! i have lots of projects and papers and exams that i'm finishing up, but soon junior year will be over. ugh is right!

11 in a row

man, the softball team was on a tear. 11 wins in a row. pretty good stuff. we beat some not so great teams and we beat others that are regionally ranked. we finally fell to tufts on sunday in our second game. tufts is our biggest rival, they are good team but we get them one more time and i know we can come out on top. morale is high on the softball and today we play a double header against manhattanville. don't know anything about them but i know we'll come out strong. as for school, it's very quickly winding down, only two more weeks until the last day of classes, but i still have SO MUCH work to do. being a junior is crazy!

junior year....gone

tomorrow signifies three weeks until the last day of classes!!!! the last day of classes as a junior!!! omg, where has the time gone??? i feel like there is so much left to do this semester: papers, research projects, exams. but only three weeks and then i'm a rising senior. that's almost hard to comprehend!!! the last three years have flown by. oi. may 14th and i'm heading back home after finals. some scary stuff, but also a lot of fun! this semester has been kicking my butt but just three more weeks or hard work and then the fun of summer can finally sink in!

7 and 7

whew! things at school have been ultraly busy!!!

well another spring training has come and gone, only one more left! it was tons of fun, as usual. unfortunately the softball wasn't great. we ended the week 4 and 7 but we're excited about the promise that the team showed (and a special thanks to grandma and grandpa for coming out to support!!!!!). i think we can definitely do better and we proved that some this past weekend. we swept bates! great wins for trinity; bates is a big nescac school that knocked us out of the tournament last year so it was good to get some revenge. my old softball coach came up on friday to watch me play. while he's seen me play hundreds of games he's never seen me play second base, dressed in blue and gold, wearing number 17. that was a lot of fun. especially since the weather was sooooo nice this weekend! i got super burned on saturday. saturday night i went out to dinner with my parents and roommates and then my parents came over for a lovely easter brunch. one of my roommates made eggs benedict, they were delicious!! then i spent the rest of the day on the quad enjoying the summer-like weather. the rest of the day was spent on work. LOTS of work that i have to do. i've had work almost non-stop since being home from spring break. and i might add it's april already!! only a month and a half left of school, where does the time go??!?!?!?!
