Goodbye UNE! = (
Hi guys!
Right now at UNE it is a time for goodbyes. Like it is super sad, we are having our last get togethers and then people are packing up and leaving. But, we have definitely made the best of this week. We had a group riding party (kind of) where like six of us all went riding together. We used the western saddle (it is really hard to fall off) and everyone just flew! They were going so fast, it was crazy! Another night we went out to ice cream (on Wednesday’s at Cold Stone it is half-priced for college students). It was so nice, because it was a really pretty evening and we walked around Old Port, which I had never been too. Then we got back to school a bonfire was scheduled. So, we all met up for that. Then another night we watched a movie. We watched Fever Pitch and convinced our friend to watch it, because we said it was not a chick flick, but a sport movie about the Red Sox. He was not impressed when he found out it was totally a chick flick, lol. But, the best part was rock climbing. So, like a bunch of my friends are crazy and rock climb and they brought me with them and at first I was like I will just let you guys do your thing and I’ll watch. But, then I ended up repelling down and it was super scary, but so much fun! And then I ended up rock climbing up! Which was harder and scarier, but I think more fun! I did not think I was going to make it, but I did! All the way! It was so awesome. And then later I repelled down again! I was wicked proud of myself. And now tonight I am going to the Portland rock gym with some of the same people. At the UNE box office (a place you can buy discounted tickets) it is only $5. I am so excited! woot woot.
this is me beginning to repel.
this is me in the midst of climbing up.
...and I made it! woohoo!
And Aubrey left yesterday, which was the saddest part of this week. We ended up going to her house in New Hampshire to drop her horse off and then came back Saturday and then went to the beach. And it was super stormy and the water was higher than the rocks, so we couldn’t walk very far. But, it was so sad cleaning out her room and saying goodbyes. I tried to move stuff back in, but it didn’t really work. One thing I never thought was that I wouldn’t want school to end. But, I am going to miss Maine and my friends so much!
Well, that is the basic wrap-up. This will probably be my last blog, since I leave tomorrow. So, I hope you have a fun summer! And I really hope I see you at UNE next year. If you see me, make sure to come and say hi!
See you later,
Marilyn
