We've Been Taken Over

As many of you have noticed, half of campus has been infected by some random cold-like illness. Yours truly has also. And I must tell you it is just wonderful. Don't you just love waking up and not being able to feel your throat? I know I do!

On a lighter note, Centenary has been quite good to me since I arrived here. Aside from an overload of piano and F.Y.E. homework, I've thoroughly enjoyed my first month of classes. I've found too many activities to involve myself in, but they're nevertheless fulfilling. For example, I am officially a pledge for Zeta Tau Alpha!

In addition to that, I've got some good fun going on with my beloved Centenary Choir. I can't tell you how much I look forward to my 12:00 rehearsals every day. And I promise there was no sarcasm in that statement.

I'm also in Camerata, Chorale, and Opera Workshop, so all of that takes up a good bit of time. No one told me that when I decided to be a Music major I would be selling my soul to the Hurley School of Music. Oops! But it's alright, I love music so it's not too terribly torturous.

I must say, it is an amazing feeling to walk up to a classroom and find that your class has been cancelled. I had that experience this morning when I went to my music theory class. I walked into Hurley to find my fellow classmates rejoicing in the hallway. The sad thing is that none of us really knew what to do with ourselves for a while. Without class we had no idea what to do! It was a little pathetic, but eventually we snapped into the reality that we could do whatever we wanted and headed to the SUB. That was all good fun until I spilled my iced mocha all over my mocha-colored shirt. Slight setback. But that's no matter. It was a good start to a day I was worried wouldn't be so great thanks to the lovely sick bug that's going around.

So we come full circle, it all begins and ends with this little bug floating around campus, infecting anyone in its path. Lucky us.
