Whew, what a weekend!!!!! It started out sad, but ended awesome!!! You see, I dropped calculus Friday. I walked into the classroom and talked to some of my classmates about my dropping the class (they were quite jealous) while I waited for the professor to arrive. She was not happy with me, but handed me my test, wished me luck, and I walked out the door. In the hall I glanced at my test and couldn't believe what I saw. Written on the top was "B Great Job!" I couldn't believe it. I realized at that moment, that although I still had a "C" on my midterm, I could pull it up before the semester ended. But now it was too late, I had just walked out. Looking back, it's a good thing that I dropped because I had to work so hard for that "B" that I neglected my other classes. Oh well. I went to go get a chai to cheer myself up, and the latte place was out of chai!!! So I shot pool with Chris and Josh until I met Mary and Emma to leave for NC.
The road trip to Asheville with Mary and Emma was awesome!!! I got them to dance in the drum circle at Prichard Park, took them up to the old bridge, took them shopping downtown (we were looking for fencing socks) and alot of random other stuff. We got no sleep, but we had an awesome time and found some really cute fencing socks. We got back to Clemson at 8pm, but decided to watch Anger Management at Mary's house and never left. You see, Talon came back from the NAC at 11pm and had a broken finger. Mary (Emma and I's ride back to the dorms) took care of his finger for him, than fell asleep on him. She look so cute that none of us could bare to wake her up. So Emma and I went for a walk thinking that maybe she'd be awake by the time we got back. But when we got back, Talon had fallen asleep to. So somewhere around 4:30 or 5am Emma and I curled up on the floor under some toweld (after some good times and goofing off) and fell asleep. Good times.
We had some fun philosophical conversations on the trip. Mary learned what new age was. We all want to take philosophy together next semester. And swing dancing. Speaking of philosophy, it was odd to see the ashevillians again. I had almost forgotten what it was like.
What's wrong with me ya'll?? I'm so confused. I really don't understand what's going on or myself for that matter. Pray for me. I need it.
I bought a bumper sticker this weekend. "Reality is for people who lack imagination". I'm going to put it on my fencing bag when I get one. Speaking of fencing, I'm going to be in a tournament this weekend in Columbia. I'm excited, but I'm really going to get my butt whooped. I'm hoping to get one touch each bout. Optimistic I know, but hey, it could happen. I'll have to use club gear for it because I havn't ordered any of my own stuff yet and all I have are the socks. I got really cute socks though!!! Club gear isn't bad though. I think I finally found a jacket that fits me and a mask too. When we were in Asheville, a store keeper got Mary, Emma and I started on talking about fencing....yea....we talked foever!!! I don't think he realized what he got himself into when he mentioned it. Once you get the three of us started, we'll talk fencing forever!!! It's awesome. We also came up with some new nick-names for people (*evil grin*). OOOH!! We saw the coolest knife!!! It was a curves blade with a dragon engraved on the blade and japanese writting engraved on the handle. The sheath was all decorated too. We were walking past the store and in unison we stopped, turned and stared at it, completely ignoring all the shiny jewelry around it. Obsessed? No, we're just sabre girls. We decided that the fencing team all needs to come up to Asheville and hang out. They'd love it. We also all need to go camping. It's be crazy crazy times.
Remember that conversation in the library Sunday night/Monday morning about how we're all becoming the same person? Yea...we have definetly all picked up eachothers mannerisms. Mary did the Talon fist, Emma spoke like Michael. It was funny. That was some good times that night in the library. We need to do that again sometime.
Okay...I'll stop talking about fencing and the trip or I'll go on forever.
Congrats to all the fencers who went to NAC!!!!! We we're cheering for you from a distance!!!
