Back in lovely MAINE

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and everyone enjoyed their vacation. I had a great time being home and seeing all of my friends again. Great thing about winter breaks in college is that its 3 weeks long instead of one and there's no homework at all because your done with your classes and when you come back in January, you start all over again with new classes and mostly new professors.
Today was our first day of classes, I've had 3 of my 5 classes already this morning and Im feeling much more confident of this semester than last. Last semester was just miserable!! Im taking chem with a new professor and retaking precal since I didnt do quite well, good thing is I passed but not enough for me to take calc next year.. lucky me. But ya, i really like the professors I have now, hoping this will be a much better semester.. I think it will. :-)

So, VACATION... it was freakin great!! :-D Went bowling with my good ol' pals and went to IHop a few times for breakfast @ 11.. IHop is amazing. Anthony came down for a few days, too bad he cant say the name of our town right.. (its pronounced FAHaven not FAIRhaven) heh.. we still love ya!!
We went mini golfing at a cool indoor place w/ blacklights, its pretty neat and lots of fun!! n932993_32990350_3827.jpg

So ya, its definatly a fun little oceanic place to take silly pictures at. The highlight of vacation was going to the Providence Place Mall (gotta love the PP Mall). We had a great time in Brookstone playing with the massage chairs.

So being home was a GREAT time but I am soo happy to be back here at UNE w/ my UNE buds. As of now, me and Tiff are still semi-unpacking and putting things away. Right now it looks like a bomb blew up in the room but we're working on it. Our refidgerator is quite disgusting but that will be tomorrow's project. Umm... I have nothing else exciting to say, but Im damn glad to be back here!! :-) have a great day!!! :-D
