disclaimer: there is a lot of love here. and it is The Longest Post Ever. you've been warned.
friday, march 5.
1. 7-song playlists.
we calculated how long the ride would be to summer's then divided it by the average song length to come up with the 7-song playlist. then in height order [always], we listened to our selections and took a tour of summer's hometown. :]
2. Gtv awards.
later than night, we went to Grace Brethren's talent show although we didn't know anyone performing. we were laughing so much, first from trying to eat the sandwiches we smuggled in, then from singing and dancing to the performances. lol
3. ALICE.
there are no words to describe how obsessed we all are with alice now. i love helena. i love her so much! and the cheshire cat. and alice. and her many outfits. and johnny as the mad hatter. goodness. i wish there was a wonderland we could go to. disney, get on that.
saturday, march 6.
4. wme2.
we took a mini tour of summer's dad's office and although that doesn't seem like it would make the list, it was such fun! we played around in the conference rooms, checked out people's cubicles (their ways of organizing with post-its, folders, etc.), and the break room complete with eggs and a starbucks coffee/cocoa machine which we totally took advantage of.
5. hollywood hot topic.
hot topic beat disney to it. goodness, it was wonder[land]ful! we had fun with the scavenger hunt there and deciding what to buy amongst all the alice merchandise. like i said before, "we love her SOOO much!"
sunday, march 7.
6. bottle village.
seriously, "america like trash." we had a good laugh at this. and the baby doll heads. on poles no less.
7. target!
rachel, summer, and i have finally experienced target together! we love target, too.
8. family dinner!
rachel and i were inducted into the wulff family this night through family thanksgiving dinner. it was DELICIOUS. and again, we love thanksgiving.
9. ellen.
in our post-thanksgiving dinner stupor, we wanted to watch ellen, but rachel's premonition knew we'd need something to get us out of our coma and she ended up bringing a pilates dvd instead! but when there's a will, there's a way [that should have been my blog entry title bc it's a cliche and perfectly sums up our weekend...but i like alliteration, too so im going to leave it as is]. so we watched ellen via youtube. still great.
monday march 8.
using my new mug for tea + i bought shorts like these from target, so i had to figure out how to wear them.
10. borders.
it is dangerous for rachel and me to enter borders unsupervised and with no real time restraints. there are so many books we have yet to read and so many other books we want in our personal libraries. i want it all!
and check out rachel's whimsical little key casually hanging on her keyring.
it looks like the key to wonderland to me. :]
11. bstudy desserts.
12. fantastic mr. fox.
after bstudy, gaby, shea, ashley, and i hurried over to iv theater to see the fantastic mr. fox and i'm glad we did because even though we all should have been studying, it really was a fantastic movie! we laughed so much during it. oh and we laughed a bunch before it, too, because i put my backpack into gaby's trunk and saw her sex contraption/bike rack which generated a lot of talk amongst ourselves.
some memorable highlights pre-movie:
gaby: it's illegal in 42 states.
ashley: she got it on the black market.
me: you only have one kidney now, right?
gaby: yes, i sold it to get the thing. but it was worth it.
highlights post-movie:
Mr. Fox: The cuss am I? Are you cussing with me?...Don't cussing point at me!
Badger: If you're gonna cuss with somebody, you're not gonna cuss with me, you little cuss!
Franklin Bean: [standing behind him] What are you singing, Petey?
Petey: Just... just making it up as I went- as I went along, really.
Franklin Bean: That's just bad songwriting. You wrote a bad song, Petey!
Ash: There's a lot of attitudes going on around here. Don't let me get one.
Mr. Fox: I don't think he speaks English or Latin...I'm asking if he thinks we're in for a hard winter...He doesn't seem to know.
tuesday, march 9.
13. julie&julia.
i bought the book from border's yesterday and i'm only reading it before bed bc it's an easy read and doesn't make me stressed. so i read it before bed last night which was really this morning, so that's why it's here. i like it so far.
i better go bc i've been doing this for quite a while now and i better work on my paper before going to studio to finish my perspective drawings. at least i have julie&julia when i return!

Oh I forgot about the playlists!!! Man that was good. And the hot cocoa from Mr. Wulff man's office. That was good. I want one of those machines. Haha at Disney get on that. It's true though. Yeah, good job Hot Topic! I forgot about Bottle Village too!! Haha. Good job. Haha at my "premonition." That was pretty funny. Aw at my key, haha. And there are those strawberries again. Man oh man were those heavenly. I'm glad you had fun with Mr. Fox. Gaby told me how they say "cuss" instead of actual cuss words. That's funny. And I liked the pre-movie dialogue. I wanna borrow Julie & Julia when you're done!
oh christine! i love this long post. I think you should do all your posts this long. you have just the best pictures! not just from this weekend, just from everything. you are so sly at taking them too, that when they turn up, its a great surprise to have that memory. good work. And your playlist won, hands down. good work on that too. rachel was a close second though. in height order as always.
