Crazy French Maid...

For the second year in a row I made the Saturday night trek to the campus of the University of South Carolina (aka home of the "shamecocks") to see my darling little sister in her French play. For those of you who know me, you're thinking, "What? Since when do you have a little sister??" Well, it all started 2 years ago when I went to live in Belgium for a while. The missionaries I worked with sent their daughter over to USC in the fall of 2004 to begin her college career. Sadly, it was not the best school in the state, but I told her the only reason she could go there is to study international business, which she is doing. Anyway, because of her I have made MANY trips to USC's campus in the past two years. But, for her, I'll do whatever I can. Just look at that face... how could I say no?? Besides, watching college students in a French play as Sissi portrays the French Maid who hits on one of the women's husbands is just too much to pass up!

Quote of the Day

Dr. Meredith Grey: We're adults. When did that happen? And how do we make it stop?

I would just like to second that...

If you haven't been watching Grey's Anatomy, you have to check it out. (Sunday nights, 10pm, ABC)

Relay for Life

Last year Upward got a team together and participated in the Spartanburg Relay for Life over at Dorman High School. I helped get stuff ready for the tent the day of the event, but that's all I did last year. THIS year however, I've realized that while no one in my immediate family has been affected by cancer (that I know of...) I have so many friends that are dear to me that have had to help other friends or family members through it. So, I'm going to do what I can for them this year. And I'm pretty excited. So, please check it out. It's an amazing cause and even if you can't raise money yourself or be a part of our team to walk the track all night long on May 19, you can at least give your prayers to the victims, their families and the doctors who have to look at cancer in the face every single day.

Anyway, check out my webpage for fundraising (click on title above) and keep track of my progress. Come on... you know you're curious ;)
