Just 2 short years ago we were all new here and now we’re presenting our projects and work to the public and potential employers!

Congratulations Kabau!
Hope to see some of you there!
Time to come clean!
It’s National Library Week, April 12-18!
You know who you are.
You have Western Library Books
in the trunk of your car,
under your bed,
buried under pizza boxes
on the coffee table.
You really just forgot and figure it is too late or what the heck, I’ll just be fined. Dust them off and cart them back to the library. This week only, AMNESTY—NO FINES, NO QUESTIONS.* Providing the books are in good condition and can be put back on the shelf, no fines will be assessed. This is a first for Western Library and we are reaching out to get all our books and patrons back. Not only are we celebrating National Library Week, we are anticipating the new look our Library Catalog will have the Summer of 2009.
*Amnesty does not apply to library reserve items. However, the Library is willing to negotiate an amiable return. Stop in and talk with us at the circulation desk.
I climbed a bluff & didn’t fall! It was a rather gorgeous afternoon yesterday was it not? Plans were made to go rollerblading with Sarah and then those plans turned into a hike up the nature trails to the top of a bluff… I didn’t know part of the hike ment actually climbing rocks and risking falling very very far down a steep steep slope, so I agreed to go! Why not! It was beautiful yesterday right? Well……. Turns out I’m a little paranoid of falling and at times I needed a hand or two to pry me from 3 or 4 scary spots on the way up! I’m sure I’m not the first person this has happened to but it was sure my first time freaking out about heights! It felt like I was glued to the side of the bluff at some points! I was SCARED!!!!! I survived though thanks to Sarah pushing me to go farther, or I’d still be on the side of that bluff clinging on for dear life! When we finally made it to the top I felt no to super happy with Sarah knowing that we could have just taken a safe walking trail all the way up! Ugh!Owe well right! No harm done! Both of us got exercise, some fresh air and to see a beautiful view of La Crosse on a beautiful day! Yay Spring!
( on a side note, yay for chocolate shakes too! They’re wonderful! Rudy’s is open and last week i snuck off with Dana & Meagan for a chocolate shake ans fries at Rudy’s! Yum!)
At the end of the day it will be the end of the week – essentially, for us Western students! I’m going home and seeing my niece and nephew and celebrating Easter and my older sister Krissy’s 25th birthday this weekend!
This means I get to play with the little ones, eat tons of food ( beacuse thats what I do when I go home), sit in the hot tub with my mom, eat more food, go visit my old high school friends, play with my dog ( Sid, he’s a black and white springer spaniel with a big ole heart that loves to chase four-wheelers), Catch up on A LOT OF HOMEWORK!, hear pregnancy stories from both of my sisters (remember, they are BOTH pregnant right now), talk car talk with my Dad, do laundry, pack up stuff my mom doesnt want sitting around her house anymore, see long lost relatives, and Eat more food, and finally DRIVE HOME to La Crosse!
Next week I’m going to attempt to make tacos for a bunch of people! Assuming things work out, Wish me luck!
P.s. I move in 7 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! new apartment means I get to look for a doggie!
Have a great weekend everybody!

Ok what’s been going on? This is what’s been going on!
Spring break, It might be a little to late to talk abotu this been but I’ve been out of the loop for over a week!
Aka – the flu!
I don’t know if you’ve had the privilege of getting this fun illness this winter or not but I’m not one to be very excited to admit it either!
I hate being sick! I hate it! But what are your choices really at the time? All you can do is sit back and deal with it! Gross!
Spring Break was fantastic! I had the opportunity to run around and see my friends back home and I did! A lot of roller-blading was done around Stanley, WI during spring break! A WHOLE WEEK of whatever I wanted to do! I spent time with my friends,
Yes! But I also
got to spend time with my family! Including driving to Madison to visit my sister Krissy, who just so happened to be moving into her new building that day! So Brenda got to help her move a few carloads of stuff from one apartment to another! In the end I ended up with a free TV and a free couch so… I’m not complaining. Perfectly happy the way things turned out! Happy to be of help!
Another wonderful thing I got to do over break was to spend time with my special someone! We signed the lease to our new last Friday afternoon! I had to be practically torn out of bed to do so but I made it! It’s a cute one bedroom with a lot of character! We’re both pretty excited to get everything together for it!
One of a number of things we love about the place is that we can get pets! So we’ve been checking into the local humane society, and looking online at doggies up for adoption. Adoption is the only way I think I’ll ever get another animal! When you have the chance to save a cute little furry critters life why not take it?
Ugh! Ok and the Best part about running around during spring break! Driving up to Minneapolis for 2 nights and seeing Katy Perry live at First Avenue! We also had the chance to run around the Mall of America so we did! Since Nickelodeon has taken over Camp Snoopy a lot of things have changed in there but it’s still good fun!
I liked it anyways!
They have a rollercoaster that goes straight up and down now and we didn’t realize it till we were actually strapped in and ready to go. It’s name had something to to with Spongebob… Whatever! It’s pretty easy to find if you happen to go there. Didn’t have the time to see the underwater aquarium this time! Maybe next time! Saving up for next weekend! lol
Anyways! Katy Perry! Yeah Katy Perry!
She put on a really great show!
I didn’t know what to expect because she’s new and a lot of new artists…
You just dont know how they are live right?
Well Katy Perry was worth it!
Two thumbs way Up!
Listen to her! Go to her concerts! Etc!
I’m on a concert high still! It was pretty darn good!
We’re saving up for next weekend because Margaret Cho just so happens to be coming to Red Wing, MN!
If you don’t know who she is Google her or youtube her! Find this stuff out! She’s a great comedian! A lot of her stuff might be offenseive to some people so I’ll give you the option of looking her up or not! ( though you really should anyways!)

On another note!
Once upon a time… long long ago ( a year or so..) Brenda bought a rug!
It was huge and weird and a lot of people of a certain age group liked it! Others didn’t really care for it .. blah blah blah …. Time goes on Brenda discovers she will no longer be needing this rug in her new apartment and decides to put it up for sale on craigslist…. the buyer— bought it for 3 times as much as Brenda purchased it for! THAT! THAT’S the Magic of Craigslist! That fact that anyone will pay as much as they can for something they really like! That’s magic! Ta da!

An why not .. .Another Note!
It’s Spring! Soon the flowers, or at least the grass around your apartment or house will be growing and becoming pretty and fun and new! (like spring should be!) So respect the beauty maybe? Yeah! Do just that! respect mother earth a little bit and pick up the garbage around your house! Or where-ever! Go crazy! Maybe! Here’s another thought don’t throw trash out the window of your car anymore! Things like this can really help make the world a better place~!
I’m not saying this because there mysteriously appeared some random bagels on my bicycle one day… That’s another story! I’m saying this because there’s trash everywhere it seems some days! Wouldn’t the world be, just that much prettier with the garbage gone?
I’m making myself stop writing for the night because I’m still getting over the flu but right now I feel like a million bucks so I’m going to go run around! Have a good one everybody!
Later!
