Someone set up swings by Mirror Lake this semester. Carved into one are the words, "Be Happy!" and into the other are the words, "You are awesome!" I have yet to swing on them, but just the fact that they are there makes me very happy.

Today the Agents publicized for the upcoming April Fool's Day show. We dressed in red, and used bright red lipstick as war paint to mark stripes on our faces. We stood outside the Co-op handing out flyers for the show, and getting passing cars to "Honk if you like to laugh!" We told people to "Save your sense of humor!" Most people were cheered by our efforts. Almost all cars honked at us, and we made many people smile. It was so much fun.

 This is one of the new buildings being built on campus. Yesterday I saw the cranes in action for the first time, and it was really exciting. For me at least; my friend Cameron wasn't nearly as enthralled. It's interesting to me, how campus is changing as I come to the end of my undergraduate career. These new buildings should be finished by 2012, but I will never have a class in them, although I was here when they were just little holes in the ground surrounded by obnoxious blue-tarped fencing. Things change, and it's difficult sometimes to find a balance between looking hopefully toward the future, and looking nostalgically at the past. Both of these choices, however, mean you're missing out on looking around you at the present.

Knock knock
Who's there?
Yi-yon
Yi-yon who?
It's me, Yi-yon. Cuddle meeee!!!

OK, new thing I'm gonna try: posting two pictures a day until I make up for the number of pictures that I have failed to post. This does not mean the number of DAYS for which there is no picture, but the number of pictures that would be necessary to finish the year with 365 photos (some days I posted two pictures). According to my count, I'm missing 18 pictures. So I will need to post double pictures for 17 more days, which would mean, if I don't skip any days, I will be doing this until April 15th.

Yesterday was Student Appreciation Day, a.k.a. Vote for USG Reps and We'll Give You Free Stuff Like Shirts and Corndogs Day. VURWGYFSLSCD is so much more eloquent and uplifting than SAD, don't you think? These are the two T-shirts that I got. One is the standard "Got Spring?" T that was handed out to everyone after voting. The other is a wicked sweet UCTV T-shirt that Steph, Ali, and I each won after naming seven UCTV shows. In case you were wondering, yes, we did have to look them up...

IT'S A TREE MONSTER!!! How have I never seen this before???

March 21st

I kept seeing statuses about snow on Facebook, but never bothered to open my shade and look outside. I assumed it was just flurrying, but then my roommate came back and told me otherwise. She opened the shade, and I could see the snow swirling down to the white roofs and white ground below. Just the other day, people were out in sundresses! Time to break out my winter coat again. It's still snowing, but I don't think you can tell from the picture. It's supposed to change to rain this afternoon. Yuck.

Rock the U 2011! Nick Steven's band was one of the acts, and they performed a cover of the song Down (Baby are you down, down down, down, down?) with Aaron featuring. It was freaking amazing, and it made me so happy. All around, it was an excellent concert, and I had a fantastic time.

This is a comforter on my bed. It is really ugly, but it is my favorite blanket right now because it is so heavy and warm and wonderful. My aunt made it long ago, and it belonged to her cat. Her cat died this past year, so she gave the blanket to my mom, and then I sort of took it over. Oh man, on a cold winter's day, I can just cuddle up on the couch with this thing and do homework very, very happily.
