Excursion #1







This is the first Excursion we took. The final destination was San Galgano, but we stopped in several smaller places along the way. Our tour guide was awesome and was always willing to just chat. It's cool because he plans all of the the Excursions so he guages what the students want. We didn't want to have to take 3 cars, so Abdulla actually drove. He is from England so that was a little interesting at first, especially when he was just sitting calmly in the left lane...haha. He realized quickly when a car started coming toward him in the lane. Ah, good times. He drove very well after that and never forgot which side of the road to be on again. hee hee.

STUDY ABROAD!!! Siena, Italy







I was privilaged to study in Italy this summer. I can't begin to describe how awesome it was. The trip began in PHX where I spent the night at Ashley's. We went out to dinner to sort of bid me off. Traveling there was such a new experience. I missed my train and got stuck on the last train after waiting over 4 hours in the middle of nowhere. I eventually made it to Siena where I met my hostess and the other student staying there. Antionetta was my host and Mayumi was my housemate. School started the very next day, so I didn't have much time to get acquainted that first day. I attended Scoula Leonardo DaVinci and had a great time. The students were very diverse and I made some lasting friendships.

Dyann's B-day-May 2006







We went to the Cheesecake Factory in PHX. It was so yummy.

The Party Never Stops







Ahh, good times.

HACIENDA!!! May 2006







This was my first Hacienda where I was screening something rather than just being a part of someone's crew. It's always fun partying with your classmates, co-workers, and professors. Go film school.

Sugar Ray Concert--March 2006







I was so excited for this and it was such an entertaining show. They always enjoy themselves out there. I love it.

Choir Concert March 29, 2006







We were all just being goofballs. Made fools of ourselves at dinner, but it made us happy. I'll miss you Lauren and Ellie, have fun in the real world.

Back in time to: March 2006 and the WCC Tournament







We were so close to winning. And, we played a great game. It's okay though, the party still managed to continue.

FLASHBACK!!!





Ok, so it's been far too long since I updated this thing. So, I thought post some of the highlights from the months I have missed. Let's see, where to begin... how about Spokane. Or, as we peppers like to call it "Spo-can't" There was really wasn't much to do, but we were happy to support the Basketball teams.
