Potentially best weekend EVER.

Yup. This weekend pretty much rocked my face off.
Friday night there was Chinese. And Rachel V's Luther friends Jacob and Jill. And Kastle Kapers. And Most Haunted Live.
Then Saturday was just all around spectacular. I worked at the band booth at the Renaissance Faire (it was homecoming, BTW) and Sarah was working at another booth for the same amount of time. We met up afterwards and walked around. Then we had a homework party in her room that was actually fairly productive and still a lot of fun. I managed to crank out a 2.5 page paper and read 20 or so pages of the most boring textbook known to mankind while we were goofing off and in between my falling asleep while reading. Then there was pizza. And the most awesome symphony concert EVER (there was a silent film playing on one of those old film reels and the symphony just played the soundtrack while we were encouraged to act like a 1920s audience and make a crapload of noise). Then there was more pizza and a first. Then we watched Brigadoon (four of us piled on one futon, pretty late while we were all really tired...at least I was...) and it was a really good movie. I want to see the beginning now. We flipped channels for a while after it finished and found a really old Doctor Who episode that was the crappiest and most hilarious thing EVER. Then it was 130 and officially bedtime. I was really abnormally tired, so I got to sleep on Sarah's futon. It was a sleepover! And it rocked. (walking across campus to your dorm when it's cold and you're dead isn't really all it's cracked up to be...)
Then today! There was a band concert.
OH MY GOODNESS.
Fellow MK members: remember the band feeling we got at ISU?
End of No Finer Calling. Definitely got it. At a concert. Not an MK performance. A sit down concert in Neumann.
It was just absolutely freaking amazing.
I mean...I know we weren't perfect, I'm not being all "oh we rock SO MUCH!!!" it's just the way the end of the song was written and the way that one part of the concert went...absolutely freaking amazing. Best concert experience ever, in my world at least
Then there was homework (I read all 70 pages of the uber boring textbook of death!) and practicing (which sucked, it was a really off night so I just quit while I was ahead...my first sign was when I was screwing up scales I've had memorized since 7th grade...yeah bad night. Ah well, there's always tomorrow). Dinner was pretty good for a Sunday, cheese lasagna and I found Margie to sit with as Melissa was working. =] And then I meandered over to Rachel V's room where we watched Moonlight and it was REALLY REALLY GOOD!!! =D The main actor is the sexiest man alive, hands down. *contented sigh...*
On a bit of a side note...I've started doing a lot (practically everything on weekends) with Sarah and Rachel V and sometimes Lourey's there and other random people...and particularly after this weekend, I've come to realize that that's probably my favorite group to be around on campus. It's just really nice to be able to run off with them and have a really happy amazing time no matter how stressed out we are and to crowd on the magic futon and essentially have our personal bubbles destroyed and to watch Moonlight and be all swoon-y and make fun of Most Haunted and then channel surf and find some random old movie to giggle at...Friday nights are very quickly becoming my happy thought when I'm having a not-so-happy day (or moment...full days are rare this year...). Heck, they're becoming my happiest moments of college.
Well, it's getting late ish and since this weekend was incredibly awesome, I didn't get very far in catching up on sleep so I need to get there soon. But right now, I'm perfectly content with being tired and having the happy memory. Homecoming rocked my socks off. =]
