Hola! Sorry I'm really not very good at keeping up with this.
Not much to say here. I've been sick all week, which sucks. I'm starting to actually get really stressed about school because I have about 8 million things to get done, but I'm still recovering, so I would prefer to continue hibernating in my dorm room. Unfortunately, that's not an option. Today, Hayley and I are going to see He's Just Not That Into You, which will be a nice improvement from my usual activities. This weekend is not much of a weekend at all. I was so ready for it too. Last night I just studied for Psychology and watched tv by myself. This morning I did laundry whilst studying some more. And tonight I will be studying, yet again. Isn't life great? I just need to make it to spring break and then all will be good. Only three more weeks!
That's all for now, though. Adios!
Oh and by the way, this bipolar weather is really starting to get on my nerves..

Superbowl Sunday
After a day like yesterday, I feel that I absolutely MUST post something on here. I'm talking about the Superbowl. That game was completely epic in so many ways. And for all of you non-footballers (aka Megan and Marissa), here's a little recap. :)
To start, it is definitely in the top 10 of best games I've ever seen...maybe even top 5...or 1. I wanted the Steelers to get it from the start, but I have to hand it to Arizona; they sure tried. They were just 9-7 in the regular season, and were not even thought of as Superbowl contenders. But they stepped it up in their post-season games and got there; it was their first-ever Superbowl appearance. Even after that, though, I never even expected them to come close to winning, but they surprised me. They certainly had an amazing comeback in the second half, and, if they had won, it would have been the biggest comeback in Superbowl history. I do have to say that I really like Kurt Warner, not just as a player, but also as a person (there you go Carol). And, although he didn't do too much in last night's game, Larry Fitzgerald may just be superhuman!
Anyway, enough about the Cardinals because, who really cares??
Pittsburgh played amazing throughout the entire game (with the exception of one turnover by Ben Roethlisberger). The last play before the half was truly historic. If you don't remember, let me remind you: the Cardinals were on the 2 yard line with 18 seconds left. Kurt Warner threw a bad pass, which was intercepted by the Steelers' James Harrison, who, then, ran it ALL THE WAY BACK TO SCORE A TOUCHDOWN!! It was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. I was literally screaming.
But then, Arizona came back and actually took the lead. On Pittsburgh's last drive, Santonio Holmes won the game! He could not be more deserving of the title, Superbowl MVP. His touchdown catch was so perfect, it was unbelievable. Not only was he in triple-coverage, he had to fight just to keep his feet in-bounds. That last drive was so intense, I thought my heart was going to burst. By the end, I was jumping up and down. THAT was an amazing game. And don't forget that Pittsburgh is the first franchise to ever win six Superbowl titles.
There were only two negatives with Superbowl 43:
1) The commercials were meant for the pleasure of the insane.
2) The half-time show WAS insane...really horrible.
Ok. I'm done pretending to be a sports journalist. Now, I have to go get ready for my first intramural basketball game. That's right. I joined a basketball team.
See ya!
