Weekend in College Station

This was my first long weekend in College Station. I didn’t have many plans and wasn’t sure what I would do, but overall it was a great weekend. 

Highlights of the weekend include (unfortunately without pictures, I must get better at documented this):

* 5 mile bike ride— found some better areas of campus to ride too, but a wind advisory all weekend (25-30 mph winds) made it difficult to ride

* Dinner with Nick and Lindsay— at Wings N More more chicken, I have seriously eaten more chicken in the past two weeks then I have in probably the last 2 months. So much for going completely veggie, maybe after Texas

* Breakfast with Nick and Logan (Hullabaloo Diner— where breakfast burritos and pancakes come in enormous portions, but the french toast is just right)

* Intern/GA Pool Parties— we spent some time by the pool Sunday night and today I managed to get some sun without totally burning myself, after 22 years I am finally learning proper sunscreen techniques— only burnt my legs!

* My first Texas snow cone— I know what all my midwestern friends are thinking, but just go with me on this one. Texas snow cones are NOTHING like the ones in IL. They are actually delicious! 

* Bridesmaids— Seriously, Kristen Wiig is my favorite. I want to be friends with her. Not to mention movies in college station are $3.75!!!!

Overall, excellent weekend! This should be a crazy week as we have our first Freshmen New Student Conference. 700 students and their parents, bring it!
