Vespers Week

I was going to blog while my meal cooked, but I got distracted. Now I blog while contentedly munching brown rice and venison steak.

Yesterday was a lot of fun.
I will start at the beginning.

Vespers started on Friday, so after class I got on the bus to take us all to Central Lutheran. Snow had been falling for a couple hours, and the 10 minute drive took 40. I made it on time though, and I played with Brass Chamber in the entry way for the third year. I didn't play very well though.

After we were done, Steve gave us a ride back to Augsburg, which was great because then we didn't have sit for another 2 hours before going home. When I did make it back, I went across 94 to watch "The Great Dictator" with Colin, Renee, Aidan, Paul and Steve-J. After that, I ran into a friend who was visiting my neighbor, and she invited me over to play Smash Brothers. We didn't actually play for that long, probably because I am so terrible, they didn't see the point in it. I do want to practice.

These events lead up to why I stayed in bed as long as possible yesterday morning, even though I'd hoped to get some work on my biology project done. I barely made the bus at 12:30, and then spent the rest of the day at the church. Same deal this time through, only I think we played much better.

Steve brought us home again, and then I went to an Mpirg party. I didn't know it was going to be an Mpirg party. Oliver who invited me, just said that I should come, and that he'd be heart broken if I didn't. So I walked by myself all the way into the Seward Neighborhood, and to my delight, when I arrived, saw many people I already knew! Oliver did introductions, and I was soon set free to socialize. I actually succeeded too. The dynamic was very good, probably because everyone there were political canvassing, extroverted types. SO GREAT!

I made friends, and had moments with old ones, and it was fantastic.

I spent a really long time in a room talking about History and politics with an Mpirg worker, met a boy from Morris who knows Josh and who is awesome, and after an incident involving an unlocked bathroom door, vowed to hang out with Kathy for the last time (before actually doing it, after all these years!).

When the rest of the Augsburg people started leaving, I went too because I didn't want to walk back alone, and then Alex and I went to Hard Times (one hour before they closed!).

This morning I woke up at a decent hour considering the late night, and was able to do some work on biology before meeting with Hunter, and then I practiced for my trumpet Jury.

Now that I've eaten, and blogged, it is time for me to get back to work. I am going to do some reading, and if I can, I will write some of my religion paper too.
