Fratastic
I just got back from having drinks at Sportsman’s with a few friends. It’s a Tuesday night tradition for students to go there, but somehow I had gone four years without going. I think I now understand why. Although the company was great and it was beautiful outside on the patio that we sat on, it was the frattiest crowd that I have ever experienced in my life. Freshman or sophomore...

Parking Ticket
I just got myself out of a $23 parking ticket by sending an email to the company explaining that it was an “honest mistake” and that I hadn’t realized that I was now required to pay in that particular lot (which was the truth). I’m pretty proud of myself.
Hotel Zaza →
I just booked a room at the Hotel Zaza for my apartment hunting trip to Dallas. It looks amazing and it’s located right in Uptown where we’ll be looking at apartments.

– Yo-Yo Ma from my Starbucks cup
I’ve been at Starbucks for 2+ hours studying for what will, most likely, be my last psych test ever. There are a couple of interesting things that I’m learning that I thought I’d share.
#1 In English, we use the word “love” to mean a ridiculous number of things. We “love” coffee, we “love” our dog and we “love” our significant...
Random girls: I'm thinking about taking botany next semester.
Kerri: Oh really? I'm taking this little class called life.
Done and done
I am officially done with undergrad classes forever!!!!! Craziness. Now just 1 jury and 3 finals until freedom.
The beginning of the end
I have felt that this entire semester has been the “beginning of the end.” However, it’s really starting to hit me this week. I had my last voice lesson this morning, my last class with my favorite teacher, and tomorrow I will have my last two undergrad classes ever. Of course I’m excited for the next chapter in my life, but it’s going to be very strange being away...
La Boheme
I’m off to the opera tonight. It will be quite a contrast from T.I. last night. Some friends went to the dress rehearsal and loved it, so I have high expectations!
Weekend!
I just made a dinner reservation for tonight at Cabana. It’s the perfect place for a night out with the girls. It’s been forever since I’ve eaten there, so I am super excited! After dinner we’ll probably have wine/cocktails back at the apartment and then head over to see T.I. It’s going to be a fantastic weekend, I can feel it!

Sad day for me.
Home sweet Nashvegas
Made it back to school. The plane only had 30 people on it (out of 150 seats) which was nice because I got an entire row to myself, but bad because it only made my fear of getting a phone call from American saying “just kidding, we actually don’t have a job for you” worse. Also, there was a woman on the plane who is apparently some sort of celebrity and I cannot figure out who...
Surprise!
I’m sitting in a student lounge on NYU’s campus right now while Dani is in class. She was TOTALLY shocked to see me standing on her doorstep this morning. It was priceless. Although a little chilly, it’s a gorgeous day in NYC. We walked around for a while then got lunch at the Kati Roll Company and ate in Washington Square Park. We’ll probably get gelato or cookies...
NBD...
…I just met Renee Fleming.
Tornado Warning
I am SO thrilled that we are having more tornados. NOT! I love thunderstorms when I have nothing to do and can stay inside, but I really don’t appreciate them when I have places to be. Like downtown buying cowboy boots….
