High Fest... Or Just The Church

This weekend was so fun! It was sunny, warm and everyone was in a good mood it seemed like. It was also the first fest of the year, High Fest. Almost every house has a party on this street and it is also theeee steepest street, I felt like I was in California. But we actually hung out at a friend's sister house, (whose backyard meets with the backyard of a house on High), The Church. There was a live band and tons of people, including long lost friend MEGHAN! After she switched dorms we all rarely see each other, but this weekend we were reunited and it was great! The Church is probably one of my favorite places on campus. They call it ' The Church' because, well, it used to be a church. The whole house is beautiful and one of the most unique looking houses around OU. I love it there and everyone always has a good time! It's almost guaranteed you'll leave happy :)

Spring Has Sprung!

Today I am going to brag about the 88 degree weather Ohio is having today. Thank God that it is finally warm out, it's about time. I think we are even warmer than Arizona and Cali! Anyway song of the day is Send Me On My Way by Rusted Root.

Poetry Slam...What?

Today I went to a Poetry Slam, which was a meeting where students came together to read and share their poetry aloud. I had to take photos for an assignment, NOT to participate. It wasn't really my scene. And I mean that because it was mainly gay men and women reading about topics I couldn't relate to, or how they pretty much hate men (the women) and all these insane poems. I mean do what you want and think what you will, but I had no idea what in the heck would be said. I figured it would be all emo and dark / love and lust. I was wrong, although that was covered for some readings. First and last time attending that. But I got my image so I'm set.. this one is a girl reading a set of random sentences that each person there wrote down and then added them together to make a poem. Again, the color is washed out so it's not the best. I really should learn how to set it to sRBG and whatnot...

Oldies But Goodies

Sometimes I just feel like posting photos on here so I'm doing it now. Also I don't feel like doing homework. Here are some from awhile ago, when uploading some of the color gets washed out on these so it's not me, I swear :)

Idol Hotness

American Idol's Kris Allen is so attractive. And talented. And young. And attractive. Tonight was disco night and he was hands down thee best. He completely redid Donna Summer's "She Works Hard For The Money" and stripped it down to guitar, jambe and bass. Kick asssss. I hope he wins because he is a musician already. He knows who he is and how to work a crowd. The judges love him as well. I also pray to God that Adam gets the boot sometime soon, what IS it about him that people think he has talent?? And since the show ended like and hour and a half ago no one has the performance up yet... so only pictures haha.

Babbyy

I went home for Easter weekend and saw more family members than I expected, including my new baby cousin (well second cousin) Madison. She is seven months old and so freaking adorable. I never really get to see my cousin Anne and it was nice that she and Madison could come visit and meet the Ohio side of them fam!

The Rescue

Last night I attended at showing of a documentary, The Rescue of Joseph Kony's Child Soldiers, and it. was. amazing. I cried, got mad, my heart broke and I got a journalist high. I was like now this is a story, it needs to be known, captured, and told. I bought a t-shirt and signed up for the rally. You're probably wondering what the hell im talking about sooo WATCH THE FILM. It will make you think. And hopefully want to help. Invisible Children

Characters on Court Street

Last week's photos on people/life on Court Street. Old man named Tom chillin' out at Chipotle enjoying his drink. He was such a cute little old man, but I could barely understand him because he grumbled and had a weird kind of accent, most likely a townie haha. And the two little boys were sitting outside of their parents' nail salon jamming with their headphones and watching the world go by. They were adorable and when I asked them a question they just nodded or shook their heads and never spoke. There are so many different people all over Court Street, from all walks of life so it makes for interesting photos.

Sunny with a High of 75

Sunday was b-e-a-utiful outside! It was sunny and 75 degrees out, I sat outside all day long. The trees are in bloom with awesome white flowers and the grass is getting green. There was a breeze and petals were flying everywhere, I felt like I was in a mystical land... and then a man comes and sets up a chair and a HARP. No joke, it was a fairytale. And we were climbing trees:)I even got sunburnt on my legs and today it was a balmy 44 and rainy, boo. But no worries the end of the week is supposed to be much better. Here are some photos from fantasy land:
