What a week

Good Morning!

Well I can say I have been busy but it was mostly relaxing this weekend here on campus! Last thursday we had the chance to play TPC Four Seasons. For those of you who don't know that is where they host the Byron Nelson Every year, a stop on the PGA tour.

Number 18 at TPC Four Seasons

Byron Nelson Himself!

This weekend after our very hot day on Thursday (around 80 Degrees) I decided to catch up on some much needed relaxation time with my friends! We had a movie night and I finally watched the hangover II. On Friday we went to the park enjoying the nice weather. There were quite a few ducks and geese at the pond who were some what friendly.

On Saturday night we went to the Comedy Club. Hyena's Night Club, it is in Dallas and if you have the chance to go it is worth it! It was quite the night of multicultural. The opening act was from Africa and the headliner Steve Hirst was from England. It was definitely the best night there I have been to! I have been there about three times and it is always good. But this week it was unbeatable! Sunday consisted of everyone FAVORITE activity! HOMEWORK! I got all caught up and it was nice to know I am compleated and prepared for the week! Although this week is already almost halfway done!

It was nice to not do anything to outrageous and it nice and relaxing! I guess you just need those weekends every now and again!

Talk to you soon

Season in full swing.

Hello everyone,

It has been a while, I just realized I have been back from my golf trip to California and didn't post any exciting news! The tournament was a lot of fun, however I didn't play as well as I had hoped I am continuing to work hard and it will come. Carol and I (the only two that played) really enjoyed the course. I spent almost 2 years in that area so it was nice to be back! A couple of my friends even stopped by to say hello! We arrived on Saturday and went down to Coronado Island. The sand is so soft there and it was awesome to watch the sun set! The best way I guess is to show you all so enjoy these pictures!

Carol and I are super excited to be at the beach!

NU PRIDE!!!

Sunday Before our practice round we had a chance to see Torrey pines, for those of you who don't know or follow golf, they were the site of the 2008 US open as well as the Farmers Insurance which happened to be there the week before us! It is right on the ocean and a beautiful layout. We were lucky enough to get a little history and tour from one of the starters.

What a view!

Team Photo was a must!

This was such a great trip! It makes you realize how lucky you are to play a college sport! Hopefully we can go back again soon!

On one last note we were invited to play Starr Hallow Golf Club in Talor, Tx, last Friday. Its a small 9 hole course but one of the nicest courses I have played. Why even President George W. Bush played out there in june! It was a fun day 27 holes, lots of laughs.

Well I finally got you all Caught up!

Have a Great week!

Never A Dull Moment

Well I meant to post this blog last night, so rather than admit that I'm a procrastinator let's just pretend that you are all a day ahead. So today is Sunday Feb. 12, 2012 (Don't get confused).

So let me tell you how you can never be bored at Northwood. First of all the Campus Activity Board (CAB) keeps us all pretty entertained throughout the whole year, but let's just say that it's the weekend and you just finished a big pile of homework and you DO NOT want to spend your weekend on campus. Well then, thank gosh the Dallas/Fort Worth area is only like...20 minutes away! And there's TONS of activities you can do there.

For example, this weekend we went to Dallas and had so much FUN!! Then we went back to that awesome SUSHI place I told you guys about before and there were laughs and just all around good times to be had. We definitely made memories that night!

So here's the only way you can ever be bored on campus: Don't do anything, stay in your dorm, and don't talk to anyone.☺But if you want to have fun you don't really have to much more than check you email, find out where the next activity is and walk  to the Student Activity Center (SAC)-because that's where they usually are. Or get in your car or a Friend's car and drive a measly 20 mins to the nearest hoppin' place in Dallas.

PS: Check out this AAWESOME DJ that was playing in Dallas...download now :p

So last Tuesday the Campus Activity Board (CAB) organized another great even. Tyler Lee is a singer that I think sounds pretty similar to The Postal Service if you ask me. But thats cool because The Postal Service is a pretty good band and this Tyler guy sounded really good, plus he gave out two free CD's and free stuff is always good right!

The even was held in the Student Activity Center where the served the most AMAZING cookies you've ever had, coffee, hot chocolate, and cider. So yeah it was a VERY HIPSTER setting (No Big Deal)

Ok so last weekend Nicola and I went to spend the night at a lake house with some friends in Cedar Creek, which I guess is in Tool, Texas. I Don't know East Texas very well because there are way too many small towns that all run into each other, but any way....[Insert Picture Here]

 This weekend I learned that I NEED a lake house!

Well that's all for now, I have to get back to my homework ☺
