Saturdaayyyy !

  My weekend was great but I did the most on Saturday.  Some of my friends came to WMU from Battle Creek and they watched me play in the Big Pink Volleyball Game.  After that we all went to the basketball game, which WMU won; and hung out more.  The Big Pink Volleyball Game was one of the funniest things because it's where a lot of RSO's pay $5 each and play volleyball against eachother.  The $5 was a donation towards woman who had breast cancer and the volleyball was huge.  A big pink ball that took 3 people to actually pick it up and it was quite heavy.  I played with YBBW and it was extremley funny because of the ball being so big and seeing people attempt to hit it.  Fun day!

Wednesday's Class!

  I've actually never found a book in WMU library because I didn't have a reason to yet.  Going with the class was a good thing even though I didn't want too because I'm sure in other classes we're going to have to know how.  It was a struggle finding the books we looked up because they were all out of order and what not.  Most of them we couldn't even find with the help of a librarian.  Citing the sources to send to you was also a struggle because the books didn't give all of the info I need to cite the sources.  My group and I stayed in the library for a long time, but the good thing is we got it done.

Class!

  In class we discussed which genre we wanted to pick and we were suppossed to come up with 2 pieces of our genre to analyze.  My genre is plays and it was hard finding short free plays online.  I ended up finding websites with a series of short plays, but you said I should find a book from the library to get them from.  I checked out a book called Thirty Short Plays for Teens and it's a lot of good plays I can use.

Ruined; Extra Credit!

  I went to go see Ruined Friday night and it honestly wasn't as good as I thought it would be.  Overall it was a good play, but I felt like there was a lot that could've been improved.  It didn't keep my attention all the time and it was very repetitive; like the same thing kept happening over and over.  The cast came to my DEARTS class and spoke a lot on the play, but it wasn't as great as I expected.  The best part was I had front row seats for the play which was extremly nice. 

Twilight

  Twilight is the BEST movie ever!!! I went to the midnight showing and it's truly worth staying up for.  I don't want to give the movie away but one scene towards the end had my mouth wide open literally.  I was so into what was happening that i kept my hands over my mouth the whole scene and kept making mini comments because i was scared.  Just go see the movie, it's worth it.

The Weekend

  My weekend was great; I went home Thursday night then stayed until Saturday morning.  I got to spend time with my friends and family.  25 of us decided to all get together and go to Applebees, so it was really nice seeing my class.  My friend also came back to WMU with me and we went to go see Pitch Perfect.  Funniest/best movie ever!!! Fat Amy is hilarious, we were in tears from laughing so hard in the theatre. 

Extra Credit Julie Playwright

When I went to the presentation at Bernhard today, I thought it was going to be some random author standing in front of the crowd going on and on about her book.  I didn't think it was going to be interesting, but when the person came on to introduce her; i knew it was going to be good.  My favorite one was the scene with the elf and santa, it was really funny and entertaining. She's truly amazing at writing and her thoughts of coming up with everything was incredible.  I'm glad I went, it truly broadened my horizons.
