Reflecting on a sem gone by (catching up on slack)

Well, i've reached the end of semester when i have no more excuses not to write anything. It flew by quite quickly and when i figured i would settle down into knowing people and finding my niche in iH, it seems like i'm at the same place i was when the year began. there's only one conclusion... the freshers are weird.
but anyway, that's not the point. i attempted to smush 5 months worth of happenings into this one blog. it doesn't justify it at all, but at least it's here...

COMMENCEMENT DINNER - 2 MARCH 2006
nice big group picture.. with some random person's sleeve *HhhRrrMmpPPhhHHh*

DUTCH NATIONAL NIGHT - 18 MARCH 2006

THE 301 vs 401 SHOT RACE - 14 APRIL 2006

The competitors at the beginning of the race... (okay, so maybe we had a little bit of outside help... but the other apartment are monsters!)

SCHOLAR'S DINNER - 4 JUNE 2006

heehee... look how many people jumped into the picture because they wanted to be in the same photo as pretty alison cole!! (she's on my left!)

living in 301 has been pretty much awesome all the time. i maintain that we have the homeliest, most lived in (read: messiest) apartment in the college. but heck, i'm proud of it.

(taken at the beginning of the sem.. see.. they're all still squatting outside)

admittedly with my own fears of being in too close quarters to my best friends at the start of the year, i think our relationships have developed - we learn to compromise, we bitch a bit, but i think we wouldn't dream of living with anyone else at the end of it. =)














the teams for our balloon stepping contest.

game on!

so, a few shitty subjects, too many parties - in 301 and out of it - later, and we're pretty much at the end of one semester! i'm halfway through uni already... despite the 2nd year blues, well, it's all going alright isn't it?

love love love to everyone is all i can say. =)
