Without Wax

I was not up for 38 hours straight between Thursday and Saturday and then proceed to sleep for 13 hours the next day.

It did not take me 40 minutes to get the mall [usually a 5-10 minute drive] because they closed 64-40 on Saturday morning, a few days early because of the storm that hit Sunday night. If I had any sense, I would have checked the news to make sure it was open.

I did not pay for $3 of the March for Life trip in quarters because they didn't have change for a $20.

My team in Pro-Life Jeopardy did not do amazingly awesome and beat the team with the law student and the Jesuit scholastic on it!

I did not get extremely excited when I heard that Sarah Palin might be going to the March for Life this year. Even if she did happen to be there, there's no way I would get to see her. Still, I got really excited!

I'm sure there was more that I did not do this week, but I can't think of any more! What did you not do this week?

This widget will be at the bottom of my blog, so please take advantage of it!!

It's that time of year week again!



I did not download 18 *NSYNC songs Sunday. I mean, no one listens to them anymore so why bother downloading them?

I did not for .354 seconds contemplate going to the bathroom in my sink last night after some girl threw up in the hall. Even if I did, I did not justify it by telling myself that if I walked out into the hall and saw it, then I would throw up too, therefore making an even bigger mess. Luckily maintenance came and cleaned it up before I could even think such thoughts!

My room does not still smell like smoke from the bonfire that I went to on Friday night!

I did not get upset when Barbara Walters did not interview Sarah Palin for the 10 Most Fascinating People of 2008 and then just turn the TV off as soon as she named Barak Obama as Number 1.

I did not go to the Galleria 3 times this week for Christmas shopping. That would've been a bad idea as well as very time consuming!

I did not mention my blog to almost everyone I had a conversation with this week.

I did not stay up a lot later than I should have because I was playing a budget game meant for middle schooler's.

That's all for this week!

Last night a group of us from Students for Life went to Forest Park for a hayrack ride and bonfire. It was a ton of fun! We went on a short ride through the park and then we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows for s'mores [we put the marshmallow in between two chocolate chip cookies!] Later, Caitlin, Hannah and I went rolling down a hill! Like I said, tons of fun! Here are a few pictures from the night.








*Oh, and Pepe never picked my nose. Nor was he at the bonfire. He picked Caitlin's nose on the March for Life. Just clearing that up!

I figured you would like to read something other than my Not Me! Monday posts! So I'm going to fill you in on what I've been up to!

A few weekends ago, I was in Peoria for Maine's [my little cousin] 3rd birthday party. Here are some pictures from it:
And then I was home November 25-30 for Thanksgiving Break. I hardly had any down time! Tuesday night, I met Elizabeth, Sarah N., Jewel, and Brittany at Olive Garden for dinner. It was nice to be able to hang out with them, I haven't seen them in quite awhile! That night I stayed at Melissa's because I went with her and her mom to the hospital on Wednesday for some tests. On Wednesday afternoon, I went over to my grandma's with Luc, Lexie, Zach, Abby, Austin and Ashley and played games! We played 2 games of Bunco and a game of Golf [the card game] The younger kids helped grandma decorate her tree earlier. That night I took Lexie and Nichole to see Twilight. For Thanksgiving on Thursday, we went to my Uncle Rick and Aunt Wilma's house. My cousin, Sean, who now lives in Detroit, and my Uncle Bob, who lives in Canada were both there and it was nice to see them, along with my other aunts, uncles and cousins! Friday was super busy! We took Abby, Austin and Ashley to the Santa Claus Parade [longest running holiday parade in the United States!] and then we met Kristi and Grandma at Avanti's for lunch. Abby, Austin and Ashley came over afterwards and went with us to get our Christmas tree and helped set it up while Zach and I went to the AT&T store to look at iPhones! That night, I babysat Evan and Jacob and then to of their cousins, Ben and Gabe, yes...4 boys...all around the same age. It was busy but so much fun! Saturday I went to a basketball game in Brimfield and then to American with Melissa. She ended up buying an awesome video camera. That night I babysat Parker and Brock. It was nice seeing them too...I couldn't believe how much bigger they had gotten! I hope everyone else had a great Thanksgiving!

I did not contemplate [along with everyone in my car] e-mailing my professors to tell them that there was too much snow and that the conditions were too bad to drive in, so that I could stay in Peoria for another day/night.

I did not get extremely excited when Notre Dame got a first down in the third quarter. It's not like that was their first first down of the game or anything.

I did not use my old ATM card to scrape the ice off of my window on Friday night because I didn't have a scrapper in my car.

I did not bring my dress back to school in case I go to the APO formal but forget my shoes.

I did not go see Twilight for the third time this week.

What did you NOT do this week?
