Hi all! So today is my 21st birthday! I'm getting emails left and right from Facebook. I woke up this morning and I had over 20 emails! I feel very special to have such amazing friends and family. Thanks all!
Since I'm still in volleyball season (no drinking), I will be celebrating with some virgin daiquiris with my friends tonight. No practice today as well! What a great fall day to celebrate 21 years!
I will be updating about DC...eventually. I really need to get on that. Ciao! :)

Why does school have to ruin everything?
I will be updating about my time in Maryland and DC shortly, but I have to get through this weekend first. Life this week is super hectic! I missed classes on Monday, and I will have to miss them Friday as well. Once everything is settled, I will update everyone about my life; but for now, I am going into a homework/volleyball-induced coma. Be back shortly... :)

Another weekly update...
This past week hasn't been too exciting by normal standards...and my normal standards aren't exactly front page news either. Our conference game this week was against Cornell; they were undefeated in the conference. Notice the emphasis on 'were'. We are now 3-0 in conference. Loras is the only other team in the conference that is undeafeated, but we plan on taking that title when we play them as well. We were on a 7-game winning streak after that game.
This weekend we played the MIAC/IIAC Border Battle. We went 2-0 the first day, beating both teams in three games. We didn't play spectacularly, but we were in control the entire time. So, we were then on a 9-game winning streak. Yesterday, we played Bethel and St. Mary's (ranked 24th). We should have beat both teams, particularly Bethel. We played horribly all around. Just..not good. But, we were determined to learn and make the day better by beating St. Mary's. We could have beaten them easily, and we took them to five games, but we were ousted at the end. Our record is now 14-5. It was a disappointing weekend, but I am sure this isn't our breaking point. We are looking forward to crushing the rest of the conference and getting to the National Tournament! :)
To read more about our games this weekend, the press releases are here and here.
This week we play Simpson at home! They beat us last year, and we are itching for some revenge! It's homecoming week, so that is even better. But, besides volleyball, I still have classes...unfortunatley. I have three papers due throughout the week, so today I'm going to be super busy.
Well, I better hop to it before I lose the little motivation I have. Good day, all!
