I'm home :) :) :) :) :) 


. . .that's all.

(gah) snow

Erie almost made through the Fall Trimester without snow . . .

. . .almost, but, on my last day in Erie (before fall break), it snowed . . .

. . .I think Erie likes tormenting me (and I also think I'm being far too dramatic about this), but I took some pictures so here they are . . .

p.s. I'm way too obsessed with my Dr. Marten's so I wanted to get them in a picture too :) They're cute and waterproof and durable and so much better for my back than the flat shoes I usually like wearing - definitely the best purchase of the year :)

I walked out of a positively dreadful* Anatomy exam to find this text message from my grandmother:

"It was a dark and stormy morning, again, as a sleek and silver bullet** sped along the interstates on an urgent mission to rescue a fair princess from the rigors of acadamia and deliver her to the arms of her loving family. We're on the road."

...and people wonder why I adore my family so much :)



*believe it or not, this is not an exaggeration
**my dad's parents have a silver SUV

Kathryn, Ali  and I took a trip to Menchie's yesterday to celebrate the end of dance finals and the return of some sanity to our lives. 

It was delicious.
