my relaxing fall break---

Our fall break is basically an amazing 4 day weekend (mon&tues off) that comes the first weekend every october and even thought i didn't have any major plans this year, it has been so relaxing!
Friday I went to Claremont for our tennis ITA tournament where all of us played really well, it was mid-80's, no complaints. Then Friday night Lj and I went and saw Night at Rotanthe with Richard Gere and Diane Lane, and it was SO sad/depressing/sent a hopeless life message. Ah! I totally thought by the previews too that it was going to be so romantic and "happily ever after" but that was definitely not the case. Good thing we had popcorn to distract me or I would have been a weeping mess. Saturday I SLEPT IN, went to the gym, mailed some letters to sisters abroad, and went out to dinner for my friend Emily's birthday. Dinner was lots of fun but 18 college aged people/The Outback/ noise control was a bit of an issue. I have sympathy for waiters now so I gave him a big tip :)
Saturday night we went out to the water polo house, football apartments, and Jenna's apartment. Super fun! We were out late and sunday was kinda a wash but everyone was out and I had a blast!
Yesterday Jackie and I hit the library for some intense quiet work hours. I had a argument paper for my ethics and social philosophy class on affirmative action in colleges and universities in the US, woo! am I glad I'm done with that! Jackie had to leave early for soccer practice and I stayed at the library longer and 5:30pm it was mostly complete.
Last night I stayed in, did laundry, edited my paper, and watched 2 episodes of FRIENDS season 3. Went to bed around 11, then woke up at 4am with one of my top-five WORST headaches to date. awful, horrible, head pounding, couldn't function. Watched a Sex&the city episode at 4:30am to try and get my mind off it but that didn't work. Musical beds, (I ended up in LJ's, 4 advil, and a 15 minute conversation with Jackie about our plans for the morning later, and I fell back asleep)
Thank goodness I didn't wake up this morning in the same condition! ugh. Anyways, this morning I woke up around 9, watched a little of the TODAY show, went for a jog, and got brunch with the girls.
I just got back from laying out on the quad, its 93 degrees here! Hott... so soaking up some sunshine while reading for my lit class sounded good :)
I'm just about to do some more reading. We're reading Peter Pan and Wendy right now and I'm loving every second of it. I find myself imagining the Disney versions in my head while I'm reading but the novel is somewhat different so its really interesting to compare the two.

I'm having such a good start to the week, hopefully it will just get better! :)
There's a birthday in the family coming up.... whose?? my mommy's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yah.
XOXO
