I went to the Senior Salute party today at the Alumni Center with Kerry and Al. Each school was represented and we could pick up all kinds of pens, magnets, hats, etc.. While we were there Tom Crean (new IU basketball coach) showed up and started signing stuff and taking pictures.

he signed our glasses. how much are these worth? can we sell them on ebay?

The World's Greatest College Weekend

The Little 500 was last weekend/week. The weather was perfect making for a week long celebration. I think maybe some people decided to celebrate a little toooo much or maybe I'm just getting old!...

What were you doing one year ago? What are you doing now?

I was strolling up and down the French Riviera eating way too many baguettes with way too much cheese but mmmm was it wonderful. Why can't you get baguettes with REAL cheese here? Okay, I know you can in the states just not very easily in southern Indiana.

And now, I'm graduating from IU in 3 weeks, sort of. Just after a bit of summer school and I plan on doing an internship in the fall. Somewhere....warm hopefully?

Hey Mon!

I went to Negril, Jamaica for spring break with a few friends from school. We spent the week trying out local restaurants, lounging on the beach, and learning about the Jamaican folk....who weren't always too receptive of tourists.
