Wednesday morning I had an appointment to revive my hair.
I refuse to go to anyone else but Cassi. I made sure I booked my appointment back in December.
trying to make contact with the mothership
After 3 hours of salon time, I came home to one of my favorite foods.
Mac and Cheese from the recipe my Uncle uses.
mmm mmm good
That night, I got to catch up with Katie.
We went to dinner at the Olive Garden.
It took the staff over 10 minutes to figure out who our waiter was. In the meantime, we had a couple of volunteers. We had our drink orders taken a couple of times. We ended up with 4 peach teas within a couple of minutes.
They ended up taking Katie's meal off of the bill to make up for their lack of coordination.
Thursday's lunch was at The Keg.
I told you before that one of my main missions was to eat all my favorite foods from home.
So yes, a lot of my pictures are of food.
The weather was too gorgeous to pass up. I decided to get some sun.
I spent about an hour outside next to the pool and I'm still a bit red on my chest.
The rest of the afternoon was spent over at my Aunt's house.
Baby Sloan and Jack were there, too.

Jack was really into these building blocks with letters.
He helped me spell out Lance's name.
On Friday, I got to catch up with Chelsie. I had so much to catch up on with her. We ate at McAlister's.
I tried on my bridesmaid's dress and I need to get it altered a bit. We went up to David's Bridal to see if a size down would help. It's a bit too snug up top, so I stuck with the one I had.
Luckily, while we were there, Chelsie found out her wedding dress was in.
She decided to have them pin it for the alterations right then and there. I'm glad I got to be a part of the process since I missed her picking out the dress.
The dress is absolutely gorgeous and she looked gorgeous in it.
We spent the rest of the afternoon watching a "Say Yes to the Dress" Marathon on TLC.
I caught the sunset on the way home.
The Duke vs. Maryland game was on.
Lance was coming into town the next day, so I figured I should get my studying out of the way.
...Friday night was spent watching a Stats lecture and doing a HW assignment.
I awoke Saturday with plans of doing my Renal cases for Patho.
I skipped that for a froyo outing with my Mom.
I got ready for a night out with my girls (and Trin) to celebrate Lindsay's 24th birthday!
We all gathered at Joe's Crab Shack and had the worst waiter in history.
It made the meal slow, but very entertaining.
Lindsay and Katie
the whole gang
Once dinner was over, I hit the long road to Lance's house.
Okay, it wasn't that long....but I was excited to see my boyfriend.
The night included a trip to Fort Worth and then Mansfield. We ended up at a family of a coworker of Lance's friend's ranch party-type-thing. That's what I'll call it. It was an interesting night. There was live music, a dance floor, a ton of food,...and a ton of booze.
Needless to say, I could not move the next day.
We had plans of going for a run, but I couldn't keep water down.
We managed to watch the second half of the Duke/UNC game and I'm glad to say we whipped their butts.
Eventually, I was able to move.
We decided to be just a bit productive and went to the mall.
Lance was on a mission to find some new sunglasses.
Then he was nice enough (after I made a puppylike face) to take me to get froyo.
My stomach tolerated it and I'm so glad.
We spent the rest of the night catching up on SNL and lounging around....oh spring break...how I miss you.
I came home the next morning (Monday) and packed up my stuff.
I had a mini photo session with Miss Penny Lane for Easter.
Once it got down to less than 20 minutes before I would leave, the tears started flowing.
I couldn't stop =(
It was 1000x harder to leave this time.
The whole break made my school life seem like a dream.
Had I really been gone 2 months?
I started thinking about how much I would miss my home, dogs, parents, my boyfriend, and friends.
I hate goodbyes.
All I wanted to do in the airport was cry, but I knew I would look like a freak.
I checked my bag and grabbed a seat next to my gate.
The flight went by fast and smoothly.
I had a late lunch in the Charlotte airport.
At this point, I was feeling a little bit better.
I had gotten so used to constantly being around people....and now I had to readjust to being alone.
Just me =)
I don't know where this kid's parents were, but I got seated next to him on my last flight.
He was so dang cute and was watching a pixar film on his ipad.
I was jealous.
I must say he was the most well behaved kid I've been around in some time.
Once I landed at RDU, I grabbed my bag and headed out.
Before I left for spring break, I put my grocery list in the car.
I went straight to Target on my way home to get groceries.
more trees are blooming!
I got in the door and Alley would not stop meowing.
She left me a ton of presents while I was away ;)
I unpacked, got the laundry going, and finished my Renal Cases for Patho.
I realize now that I didn't take any pics of me and Lance =(
I guess we were too busy enjoying each other's company.
Time for bed!
