Weekly Rewind #5

Week of 10/13/2019

Another week has come to a close, so that means it’s time for another Weekly Rewind! I thought this week was going to go by really fast because Columbus Day was on Monday which means we had a three day weekend… but I was wrong. You’ll see why soon. Anyway, lets get into it.

This week started off with yet another super fun fall activity…at the Pumpkin Patch! My family got a couple big pumpkins and I got a small one so I could bring it back to school. There was also a hayride and a short corn maze at the farm. We go pumpkin picking every year and I really enjoy going with my family.

Also at the beginning of this week, my parents surprised me with a new TV for my dorm!!! They got it for me as an early birthday present. I was so excited about this because the TV I had before was one that we just had laying around the house and it was very small. I was so excited to hook up the bigger TV. It is so nice and it was so easy to set up. I’ll link it below!

Wednesday was a really busy day. I had class in the morning, and then I picked classes for next semester which is CRAZY because I feel like I just started. Next semester, I am taking 6 classes which is 1 more than I usually take (yikes) so we will see how it goes. After I picked my classes, I went out for lunch with my grandfather. We got lots of really good food. I got fish tacos and we also got cake for dessert. It was a really fun way to take a break from my schoolwork.

Thursday is when the week started to really drag. In the middle of the night Thursday night, the power went out across campus because of the wind. All classes ended up being canceled on Thursday. Because of the power outage, the dorms were pretty much pitch black. There was only one place on campus where we could charge our phones and laptops so it was almost impossible to find an outlet. Luckily, my friends are awesome and let me go to their house to charge all my stuff to get me through the night. There was talk that the power wouldn’t come back on until Saturday night, but luckily, it came back Friday morning! That was a crazy day and honestly made me realize how much I take for granted. Not having lights and having to use a flashlight to get dressed was a real pain!

On Friday, I got to go to my brothers cross country meet and he did so well! I was so proud of him and was so happy I was able to go and cheer him on. He was really tired after, so I didn’t get many pictures. I can’t wait to see what else he will accomplish!

Lastly, on Saturday, I went out to breakfast with my brother and my sister. It was really nice to hang out with them. I got a french toast bagel and a vanilla chai. Both were so good and this was a great way to end the week.
