[My Weekend]

Well, I just thought I should blog in and let you all know about my super-fun weekend!! Friday night I went to the boys basketball game which was super fun and exciting... Even though we lost at the very end =( it was stil a great game.

Then Saturday I got up, and went to the caf for breakfast because they make pretty amazing omelettes and my friend Chris met me and we went into the City!! It was SO much fun, we took the PATH to 34th then at Penn Station took the Subway up to 72nd. On 72nd is this AMAZING bakery called Buttercup Bakery and its kindof a sister bakery to Magnolia Bakery in the Village, if you've ever been there. AMAZING. So after our cupcakes we walked to the American Museum of Natural History, where they filmed "Night at the Museum". It was SO neat! We walked all around (the place is MASSIVE) and looked at all the neat stuff and took lots of fun pictures which I will post as soon as I get them from Chris! After the museum we went to Strawberry Fields in Central Park and saw the Imagine mosaic tribute to John Lennon. It was really neat but SO cold out! So we walked back to Buttercup, got MORE cupcakes (for my roommates of course! =)), and hotdogs from Grey's Papaya, then took the subway, then the PATH back to school. It was a very fun (though cold) day.

Today I got up and went to church and now its just study study study.... And that was my great weekend!

Jolie Hoppe, Come On Downnn

Hello all!!!! Sorry it's been so long since my last blog, but it's been Christmas Break and I've been HOME!!

It was a great break, I loved being home and back with my family and friends in California. It was super exciting too because on January 2, a bunch of my friends and I got up at 1am, drove to LA, got in line at the CBS studios and waited until we were let into the studio for “The Price Is Right�. We finally got in and who was the second person called to “Come On Down�, but ME!!!! I ran down like a crazy person and even got on stage and met Bob Barker!!! I would tell you how it turned out, but you'll just have to watch it for yourselves when it airs on February 7th at 11:00am on CBS!

And now I'm back in Jersey and school has started. I feel like this is going to be a really good semester. I'm living where student's refer to as “down the hill�, in an apartment with some great roommates! I'm taking great classes, including one where we go to China for Spring Break! I'm so excited!


Well now it is late and I must go to bed…but I will post more soon!
