An Interesting Weekend
Hey everyone! As I pointed out in my last blog, I had an overall interesting weekend! A group of about 20 people from Immaculata went on a Mystery Trip, where we had no idea where the bus was going to take us. My girlfriend thought that she figured out where the trip was, and she told me excitedly the night before that it was New York City, which kind of got me excited because 1. I thought it was New York the whole time and 2. New York's a pretty cool place. I thought of buying some Heroes gear at the NBC store in Rockefeller Center (yeah i know..im kind of a nerd) and just spending some time with my close friends there. But, when we started going on the bus, we started driving south and everyone figured out then that it wasnt New York. Then, everyone on the bus thought it was Baltimore, but we drove right past that exit and kept going. Eventually, we ended up in Washington, DC, where none of us expected at first. However, we all had a good time, visiting the White House, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Zoo there, and we walked around and enjoyed the sites. We also took the Metro, which was a good time because underground trains are the funnest, especially in DC.
So, in addition to the DC trip, I also had the Honors Convocation this weekend. I noticed how the ceremony folded out, and it was similar to most ceremonies where you receive honors, but it was an interesting ceremony, with everyone wearing the same caps and gowns that they are going to wear for graduation. Yeah..other than the events of the weekend, I've got nothing too exciting, but if anything comes around, I'll certainly remember it for my next blog...until then!
