Summer "Break", by Emma
Well, I’ve been on break for a little over 2 weeks now and I’m finally starting to relax.  Samantha and I flew to Minnesota to visit family, but not before she decided to slip climbing into my bed and break her arm.  Technically it’s called a “Monteggia” fracture, which just means she had a small crack in the ulna, causing a dislocation of the head of the radius in...

Crazed Bliss
The past month or so has been completely hectic and at times straight up EXHAUSTING. But, tis over and I have 76 days of glorious relaxation ahead of me.  I graduated Saturday May 7th, 2011, at the Stabler Arena in Bethlehem, PA.  It was a great ceremony, and had a really neat guest speaker, Mayim Bialik from The Big Bang Theory, a show I have honestly never once seen.  But, she was a pretty great...
