An interesting Formspring Question

hey sexy lady, wanna tell me a little more about this saint michael's college you attend? is it filled with beautiful smart ladies?


Well....thanks for the compliment first of all! Saint Michael's College is a Catholic liberal arts college located in Colchester, Vermont. I absolutely love going to school here, and lucky for you, 51% of the student population is female! Please ask any other appropriate questions you may have about college life. Feel free to censor yourself. xoxo Kayley

4 day weekend

     Ok, not really, but I really lucked out and didn't have much to do before my first final! The last day of classes was Wednesday, and we had an official study day on Thursday.  Since I don't have my first final until Monday, my friends Taylor, Nate, and I wanted to go to the beach.  BUT the weather was not beach conducive, so we went to the waterfront instead.  A nice trade off I'd say, and we had a grand old time.  I had a blast just relaxing with them and we took some crazy pictures. 

     Then Friday- ANOTHER DAY OF NOTHING! I relaxed, ate a lot, went to the gym, made many trips to Alliot, and worked on an essay.  Kate and I went for a walk around campus to enjoy the wonderful weather (although it was a bit humid and my hair went wild) and we had a fabulous time.  At night the Sleepless Knights had their last concert of the year and I went to see it with Kate and Kk.  I had a ton of fun and the concert was great!




     Then Saturday- I woke up, ate breakfast, went to the gym, and hung around with my suite-mates.  Later that afternoon we all went to Olive Garden as a last meal of the year where we could be all together.  We didn't get to sit together, however, and were broken up into 2 tables of 4.  We were sort of diagonal but we still got to talk to each other and laugh.  Here are some pictures:








    In the afternoon my friends and I went across the street where the rotunda is to lay in the sun and hang out-



     That night my friends and I relaxed and even went for a walk because the moon was so beautiful.  I had a great day in total and a fantastic last weekend.
    
     Sunday- aka study day.  I have a Spanish final tomorrow, so I spent the day eating, preparing, and finishing up an essay. 

     Well, I should get back to work now!  I had a nice break writing this blog post and I hope you enjoyed it.  Study hard and have a great last couple of days.

Right Now

Right now:
  • I am enjoying the silence and the quiet with my best friend Taylor
  • I am feeling so incredibly thankful for being so loved and appreciated
  • I am thinking back to my walk this afternoon with Taylor to the playground on North where we met Megan and her "Little Sister"



Hah! That's me!!!
Right now:

  • I am getting slightly worried for my upcoming exams, but I'm excited for them to be over
  • I am looking forward to hopefully going to the beach tomorrow with some friends
  • I am regretting saying "I am" so many times and not thinking about others!
  • People on campus are doing work, studying, relaxing, and sighing that the year is coming to an end

MLK Talent Show and P-Day

     This weekend was the MLK talent show and P-day.  These are 2 very special events on campus and everyone participates.  The MLK talent show took place at 7:00 on Friday night.  This year I was able to help out at the show and still take part in the festivities.  I helped to cut up tickets to begin with, and then I helped to guide the incredibly LONG line around to the front.  If you were there then you saw me stationed at the point near the bathrooms.  Unfortunately I didn't get to take any pictures or videos, but you can see my blog from last year to get a taste of what it was like.  The talent this year was amazing and I'm so glad that there was such a big turn out to see it! 
     P-day, which stands for Preparation Day, is a day for all the students to kick back, relax, and have fun before the final crunch.  I like to work on P-day and this year I got to spend it with my friends Alex, Taylor, and Sara.  I loved helping out and seeing all my friends.  I got to collect tokens at the food tent and chat with everyone who passed.  It was a ton of fun, and I even got to go to the photo booth and take some pictures with some of my MLK friends!  Also at night there was a comedian and a Midnight breakfast.  It was a very fun day and I'm so sad to see this year come to a close.

the Spirit of Ethan Allen

     Last night the Diversity Coalition had the end of the year final meeting.  The celebration took place on the Spirit of Ethan Allen, on Lake Champlain, and we got to enjoy a nice dinner cruise!  It was such a beautiful trip and we had an amazing meal.  For dinner we had 5 cheese tortellini, lemon chicken, string beans, pot roast, rolls, and caesar salad.  For dessert we had a chocolate fondue with pineapple, strawberries, pretzels, and biscotti!  We took tons of pictures and got to meet new people. 



     I was so happy to go on this wonderful trip, BUT it means that we've reached the end of the year! I really hate for this year to end! I've been having so much fun as you can see!!!  Well, I'll just have to make the most of the end of rest of the year....

New Discoveries

     Today was the Student Symposium Day.  This means that students can show off their research projects to faculty and students, and best of all...we don't have any classes!  My friends Taylor, Angelica, and I decided to go get coffee and catch up, so at around 12:45 we all met up and drove to the Winooski Circle.  We all got cappuccinos, sat, and chatted for a long while.  The cafe is so cute and comfy, with nice tables and an excellent atmosphere. 



a nice awkward picture of Angelica!

     Oh, and I forgot the name of the coffee place, so you'll just have to go exploring yourself to find it!
