One Cold Yet Sunny Monday: February 11th

It is currently 44 degrees out, with a high of 55 today. I busted out the flip-flops, because the sun has been shining so intensely. I am ignoring the fact that my toes are icicles and just going with how nice it feels to free them from my restrictive sneakers.

I spent this last weekend in Oxford, which was kind of nice. A big group of us went out on Friday night, and I finally used the flexibility of my youth to my advantage, staying out until 3 in the morning dancing at a club and working on my alcohol tolerance. I had so much fun, and was so hung over the next day that I stayed in my sweats and only left the house to walk to the store and purchase a questionable amount of candy, cookies, and Pringles (Sour Cream and Onion, of course). I justified this by saying that I walked, but it didn't really work. I then went down a few doors to Logan House, which is another dorm for St. Clare's students, and watched Audrey Hepburn in "Sabrina", which I had never seen before. It was wonderful.

Today I plan on writing up a few journal entries and possibly exploring Oxford a bit. I'm crawling out of my skin from sitting inside-- I can't let the coldness keep me from seeing the sights. I might go on the City Tour bus and discover some more history of the town. We are in Oxford again this weekend, and then virtually every weekend after that is booked for an out of town excursion. Our first one is Paris, which I am psyched for!
