one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish

Not really sure where to begin, but I guess I have to start somewhere...

Currently there is a lobster in one of our toliets. Yes, a lobster, and not a fake one either, one from good ole harris Lobster and Steak night. That was all Knowlton's doing, being that I guess there has been a prank esque war going on between us and them, of course we are going to retaliate, but you would have to ask Jess for more of those details, I was busy having probably a tid bit too much fun with my orgo models.

Orgo has seriously consumed my life these past few weeks, well that along with Chinese 401, Invertebrate Bio, and 3D Art:red/constructive. I really enjoy all my classes, despite the way too many late nights I have been up already. Sculpture (3D art) is so crazy, today we had a live model--sculpting a human figure and trying to grasp its gesture in 15 minutes is probably one of the hardest things I have ever done, I have so much respect for sculptures. As much as I would love to just go back to 2D drawing, the 3D stuff it is great, I am learning a lot and seeing art in a whole new way.

Everything is slowly coming together. Meaning my routine, some what planning of my life/summer internship/various clubs/hospital volunteering, and decorating my room (yes I have things on my walls! Actually all of you are up there, in one picture or another).

Third floor smith is awesome! The entire floor is made up of great people, oh! and you all will never guess who just moved into a room at the end of the hallway...Sarah Mellstrom! She was living in JA, but I guess it was too loud-- KB 405 has reunited, which is really really odd, but to be honest I don't really see her all that often. Jess, Ally G., Iwi, Jeff, Alice, myself and whoever else is around tend to hang in the hallway marjority of the time, just goofing around, watching Ally do bridges and cart wheels, and Jess with her signature handstands. The other night Ally, Iwi and I went star gazing on the green, lots of fun, and it made it even better when two people were convinced we all were having sex-- "omg, who is that? are they having sex? There is like 5 of them. Shut up, shuuutt upp, they are having sex!" The three of us were just giggling like no other. Thursday and Saturdays have been pretty drink filled, as you all saw from our drunken post, but all in good Smith fun.

I think that pretty much brings you all up to date at what is going on here. Nothing to too crazy, but good times with new people and thus new friends. oh! Allison is having a unbirthday party, since she can't celebrate her bday in the summer with conn people, and it is an Alice and Wonderland theme party (hence the un part), Jess and I are going to be Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dee, so that should be rather entertaining. So happy to hear you all are having fun abroad times! Keep up with the new adventures and experiences! I am sure Jess and I will inform you of anything exciting that happens in our Conn bubble world. Miss you all!

peace and love, Rach
