Hi all!! Sorry I haven't been on lately! School has been CRAZY! I have had a lot of work and other stuff going on. School has been good, I got an A on my first Italian quiz! I have been having a lot of fun in my painting class. Art history is more difficult than I expected, but it is interesting. Religion has been fun too! I like my teacher who is a Franciscan monk. The other day we had a guest Jesuit speak. It was the battle between the Franciscans and Jesuits, which was entertaining within itself. From a social viewpoint, I have continued to meet great people. Rush starts tomorrow! It goes until next Tuesday. I am going to be veryyy busy! I went to the open house and loved it. I got a personal tour of each house and out of the four I liked Alpha Phi and Delta Gamma. Today a friend and I went to Stanford to shop for some stuff and we got our nails done on University Ave., which is ADORABLE. I love visiting the Stanford/Palo Alto area. On top of it all, I have a personal tennis try out with the coach on Thursday! So much going on... Well I must rest up for the big day tomorrow! I will try to update more... <3 Katy
