THURSDAY NITE!
Thursday started like many others, class, working out, Travis Waters living in my house, ya ya.. and we decided we needed a little break for the same ole stuff. So Rebecca, Tiffany, Shannon, Amanda, Alli, Lee and myself decided to go out and "just have a few drinks". Note: Whenever any night starts out with the phrase it should be understood that although the intentions are to only have "a drink" the night always ends with everyone being extremely drunk, Thursday night being no exception. We started the night with prime time seating at the Burgundy room and then gallivanted to Pearl Street Pasta because of the two for one drink special! I now totally support and love bud light beer. Not because of the taste but b/c of the free merchandise it gave out promoting the new blue bottle. "All this free beer stuff, I feel like its Christmas" was a quote from an excited recipient of the free merchandise and I totally agree. We all got T-shirts, beer mugs, glasses, and best of all free beer. Ps. my roommate whitney thought my free T-shirt was a shaker shirt.. I'm here to report that it is not! Anyways, we were having so much fun that I didn't even know we had actually stayed until Pearl Street closed. They basically had to kick us out! Friday started with a bit of a challenge for me. I went to work out and well honestly sweat a whole lot of alcohol... not so much fun! I went to class and then volunteered at the Katrina shelter. This was very shocking because you see all of the images on tv but seeing people that have lost everything is very mind blowing. After leaving the shelter, I went home and had dinner and then got ready to go to a surprise party for Amanda Miller. On my way there, my car broke down and Lee had to come to my rescue. After the car was towed we decided to just go to the square and hit up the bars! What a great idea! We met up w/ the same posse with the addition of Todd M from Memphis. We hopped around a lot but ended up settling down at the Grill. Here was Matt Glass, the boy I hit this summer w/ my car the first day he moved to Oxford. Thank God he is really nice and forgiving b/c it had the potential to be an awkward situation. Again this night was lots of fun and too many beers were consumed….. this is going to be a great year more later….
