Wow...It's been forever!!!!
Hello!! I know that it has been forever since I last posted...sooooo I am posting this.
What has MackBean been up to since the end of July?
Well, I have had my wisdom teeth out and that was a horrible experience. I was since afterwards and the swelling still hasn't completely gone away. Classes have started and are halfway over now. I like all of my classes. I say almost everyday that I could be in college forever if I didn't have to do homework. Dance Marathon has kept me really busy. Check out our sweet recruitment video HERE. So far we have had a record number of dancers registered!! We also made a $5 million donation over the next 10 years to the new UI Children's Hospital. With that announcement, we got to eat at President Sally Mason's, attend a Press Conference, and get announced (be on the huge screens) at the football game. GO DANCE MARATHON!!! Lime Days came and went. We had a lot of cool events. One was the flash mob which I think is my favorite. Another love of my life is UI Athletic Ticket Office. We have gotten a lot of new really cool cats to add to the family. I do miss the sorority especially since I have not heard any bad things about our bunches of new girls! I finally was able to get my nails done again (I hadn't had them touched up since August). I love cool designs that Nancy does. If you ever need something to help you relax, get a foot message and pedicure from Sonny and let Nancy create art on your finger nails. One a completely random note (like this whole posted isn't random enough) I have acquired a taste for coffee. For some reason, I cannot function after my shower without it in the morning. I am not sure if this a good sign or not... Well, I probably do some homework because I know I won't get anything done this weekend while I am in Chicago for the marathon (don't worry, I am not running just supporting the peeps who are running 26.2 miles For The Kids).

SUMMMMMERRRRR ISSSSS HEREEEEE!!!!!!!
It's Friday, Friday...Gotta get down on Friday!
BAH! Now that song is stuck in your head, too.
I heard it on the bus and had it out of my head until sporcle posted this
http://www.sporcle.com/games/rockgolf/When_Black_Friday_comes. WHY? SPORCLE? WHY?
Anywhooo, finals are over. I still have my online class but it shouldn't be too bad. I am sad that everyone is leaving IC. Yesterday, my little brother stopped by IC to help me move into my first apartment. Yes, I am 22 years old and have not lived in an apartment. I have lived at my parents, uncles, the dorm, and the sorority house. You can say I am finally growing up. I am really excited to live in IC for the summer!!! Whoot! Whoot!
I do not know if IC can handle MackBean for the summer! We will seee!!!!!
