Rock and Roll Music

Man, this weekend was awesome!
So I know I was all bummed about my eye and stuff, but everything was still great!
I left Saturday around 11 (after gassing up and mailing something special out,) and met up with my friend Amber. She's super awesome and one of my good psych friends. I went to her apartment and unloaded and from there we went to try to go to the bookstore so I could get Office for like, $15, but it was super packed with freshman parents. From there, we went and picked up Amber's friends Katie and Stephanie.

See, this guy, Ekpe Udoh, was a player for the Baylor basketball team and is now in the NBA. He was going to show up at the game early to give out autographs and stuff, so we went early (about 3 hours early). It was SO hot! But it was totally worth it, especially for Amber!
She claims that he's her husband (: After that, we went to go secure out seats. We still had a good hour or so before the game started. Man that Texas sun is hot, especially in your eyes! But it was all worth it. The game was awesome, and we beat Sam Houston 38-3! Sic'em Bears!

As you can imagine, I was SUPER tired. However, Amber had more in store. We ended up leaving and going and getting ready for the fraternity stoplight party. It was alright, nothing too special, but it was fun! As you can imagine, I was SO tired. We got to bed late, and woke up early because Amber (and her sister, Shannon, who went with us,) wanted to go back home early. I got my things together and met up with miss Hannah!

I love Hannah, she's such a sweetheart and a really amazing person. I picked her up from her dorm and we went to Cafe Cappuccino, a really great breakfast place. Luckily we got there before it got really packed. From there, we went on an adventure to find this used bookstore. We found it alright, but it was closed, as well as some interesting things along the way, like a place that sold Ghost Hunting equipment, and a castle! It was gorgeous.
It's called Cottonland Castle, and was built for.. cotton! Another man used it after for his home, which Hannah and I would not mind doing. It was really pretty and a true treat. After that, we ended up going to find other used bookstores, but they were all closed, so we ended up going to Books A Million. Luckily, we caught our friend Emily before she left for her grandparents, and met up at Starbucks to talk for a little. It was nice to see so many people before going over seas for three months! After that, Hannah and I did a little shopping and had lunch, and I was off back home.

Needless to say, I am REALLY sore but REALLY happy that I got to spend a weekend at Baylor/in Waco. I didn't know just how much I missed it! Only 11 days until England!!
