What an outdoorsy day yesterday was.
The day started innocently enough, 12:05am, I received a phone call that my classmate would be to my room in thirty, and that I should get up. Sure enough thirty minutes later we were practicing our "movement exercise" for acting class. We wrapped that up a little under 90 minutes later. I hightailed it to the dining hall, and managed to get there roughly five minutes before they closed their doors. I ate in solitary, until my friend Paritosh (who is here from India to get his Masters in Mechanical Engineering - he is an employee of the dining hall, because he can't work off campus due to his student visa, for a few more months anyway) comes and joins me, and we start talking. Long story short, I end up explaining the game of Baseball to him. After this, I head back to my dorm, expecting a lazy afternoon...
Kyle stops by, and asks if I want to go on a hike, and I think for a moment; Business Statistics or a Mountain Hike.... And off we went to the ranger station to pick up a map. Seven dollars of Kyle's money later, we were driving through the beautiful mountain scenery into Roosevelt National Park. It rained, it sunned, it was green, it was b-e-a-ootiful. Two miles to the end of the trail, two miles back, and we took the scenic route through another part of the mountains back to campus, we arrived back just in time to get dinner. Serene mountain forests are appetizing, don'tcha know?
Dinner comes and goes, horrible, horrible cheeseburgers, worst ev-er. Back to the dorms, and Noah asks if I want to go ice skating with him and the girls. I'm like, why the hell not, and 20 minutes later we're at the rec center; him, me and becky... the other chicas wimped out. 'Twas an enjoyable skate, in which the only falling was done by Noah, a number of times. I hadn't done it in quite some time, it was refreshing.
Summary: My legs hurt. And I'm tired.
