Rain... Rain... Did I mention Mud?

True Pennsylvania spring weather is here! Rain, rain, and a bit of snow. Unfortunately I'm experiencing the weather in NY, but soon I'll be back in PA having a ball. My favorite weathers are sunny days and rainy days. I enjoy rainy days even if I need to be outside during the rain (but only if I have an umbrella). I'm really looking forward to the first thunderstorm of the year. There is something exciting about seeing flashes of lightning every second, thunder pouring out of of the air, and rain rushing, thundering down so hard on my window I can't hear people talking outside of my bedroom door. As long as I'm inside and safe - thunderstorms are my favorite weather.

I had a great end to this week - game night! I had to do quite a bit of driving on very little sleep, so I had to pay a price for the fun, but it was worth it! There were several things that made this game night a little more worthwhile that just playing games: The pre-game-night practice was a lot of fun, there were seven people involved, and I was invited to intervis for my.... 4th or 5th time ever. During intervis, we watched the great movie Second Hand Lions which will be a classic (although a bit cheesy) . I'm seriously considering moving two movies into my favorite movie classification. The first being The Truman Show and the second being Groundhog Day. They both had great stories and morals. The real test for the shows are whether I can enjoy them more than one time, and I still haven't had the opportunity to test them in multiple viewings. I think being able to enjoy a movie multiple times is what makes a good movie different from a great movie. A lot of the movie's I watch I only watch once and I don't really care if I ever see them again. A great movie is a movie I would be willing to watch several times and be able to learn something every time I watch them.

School is coming to a close. I need to finish most of my schoolwork by Tuesday so I can have my computer repaired for my post-college life. I also have several papers to write, and I think I'll downgrade the possiblity of finishing them this weekend to 50%. Everyone here is asleep, so I think I'll take the hint. Thanks everyone for a great week! Thanks to my good friends, my last days at college are going to be some of the best.
