i'm a penguin, i live in nevada

(these are my super adorable friends getting ready to go to their senior prom. they are two of the most genuinely talented, sincerely nice people i know. and they're absolutely adorable.)

excellent weekend. excellent end of freshman year.
recap of events since last blogging:
1. went to see the wonderful casa show. i forgot how much i love the people who go there.
2. casa reunion at the colonial park diner. got my standard 1.25 plate of toast and they gave us the whole back room. i missed everyone so much. kelsey, rashaad, alison, tori, alex, morgan, megan, mike- everyone.
3. applied for a trillion jobs. keep your fingers crossed.
4. bought an adorable camera ($2!) and new sunglasses ($2!) at salvation army.
5. got the new burrito of the day at neato (incredible!)
6. cleaned my entire room. like a total overhaul. that's going to be a whole seperate post.
7. came back to philly with liz and had a crazy friday night. went to a small party with keiran, liz, and christine where we knew no one. met a bunch of people. played games. danced in the kitchen. made orange juice. sang lion king songs (one guy thought that the opening song in the lion king contained the words, "i'm a penguin, i live in nevada" which turned into "i'm a penguin, i like it on the bottom"), had a few good talks with new girl-friends, ate ice cream. overall = A+ evening.
8. saw girltalk and lupe fiasco at drexel. had to make friends with random drexel kids in order to get into the concert.
9. went to the best fest benefit with beth and andrew. lots of smelly old hipsters. saw a mini piano. listened to sleepy music. discussed feet and potential band names.
10. came home to a bunch of people in my room. cards and chinese food everywhere. watched heavyweights. dee tried to eat a fortune cookie with the plastic still on it.
11. went to brunch with my cousin eileen and my mom's cousin jen, along with jen's partner yona and their adorable children. got to hold a beautiful baby girl! and sit across from a little cherub of a boy!

everyone is packing up. my room is super bare (no tv! no fridge! brianne's closet is empty!). can't wait for the summer adventures to start.

also: they were playing this band at the party on friday. i'm totally loving it.
