Maggie’s Homecoming
Like I said in my last post, Maggie is back! We lost her about 3 weeks ago when the wind blew the gate open and she got out. Kam had gone to the pound to see if the city had picked her up, but she was nowhere to be found. He put up a lost dog sign and it turns out that a guy that lives literally two blocks from here was taking care of her. The guy saw the sign at the pound and called Kam, and now she’s back home. We’re in kind of a predicament now though because none of us are going to be able to take her home over Christmas break for various reasons, so if you’re looking for a puppy-friend for about 2 weeks around the end of December, let me know!
I also found out this weekend that I got tickets to the Rose Bowl! I went and picked them up early this morning, and it was funny because as soon as I picked them up people were making offers for them outside the ticket office. One guy even offered $2,000 for the pair (I think I could actually get around $3k for them). No amount of money is going to make me part with these tickets though. The tickets to the game were the last piece of the Rose Bowl puzzle, but there’s a problem: We’re one ticket short. There are 3 people in our group, but students were only allowed to reserve a maximum of two tickets and I was the only one that got them. If anyone has ANY friends that 1) Got tickets 2) Have a heart 3) Are willing to sell one of the tickets for a reasonable (READ: Less than $500) price, please let me know!
My parents and sister came down on Sunday for my Phi Beta Kappa induction ceremony, it was really nice to have them come. I was even able to talk Denicia into coming along. The ceremony was pretty short thankfully, and we went and had a feast at Texas Land and Cattle afterwards. It’s nice when they come in town or I go back home, I get to eat like a king!
It’s been a pretty eventful past couple days for me and finals are right around the corner, so let the studying begin. Oh crap, I need to buy Christmas presents sometime too…
