A weekend full of surprises

Hello, my name is Katie and I am addicted to the Facebook. It was first introduced to me through peer pressure. You know, everyone was doing it and telling me how much fun it is. I decided to wait, what's the big deal, I thought. Then I tried it. I wasn't really impressed at first, in fact, it seemed a little boring. Then somehow it sucked me in. Now there is no turning back.

The Facebook, for those not in the know, is basically Myspace but just for college students (and high school too). You have to have a college e-mail address to join- then put up a profile and find friends. It was through this that my surprising weekend began. It turns out that a fellow classmate has the exact same birthday as yours truly (March 6th). She suggested that we have a big party for the occasion and that's when this brilliant idea popped in my head- we should celebrate every 6th day of every month. Well, just in case you didn't know, Friday happened to be Jan. 6th- so we had to celebrate. What did we do? Happy Hour! Yes, that's right- she drinks and has other friends that do the same. YAY! Later, she invited me to join her to party at a friend's place where we played (and drank) a fun game. Certainly good times were had by all.

Saturday, after sleeping until 1pm (it was glorious) and taking an extremely long time to get ready (mostly because I was playing with the Facebook) my room mate and I went to Lancaster to purchase a few needed items at the Target. Then we went to the hockey game. Yeah, you heard me, this school has a hockey team- crazy, right!? The place was packed for we were playing the number one rated team and we are ranked number two. Anyway, I had gone to a hockey game before when Louisville had that semi-pro team the Ice Hawks. But I was young and our seats were far away so I really didn't realize just how action packed hockey is. Man the testosterone in that place was intense. We sat near the other team's box and as the game went on you could smell their sweat. I kept imagining what their legs look like under all that padding- meow! Not only that, but when did hockey players become so pretty? We actually ended up sitting next to the players that weren't in the game for whatever reason, and they seriously looked like male models. I thought hockey players were suppose to have missing teeth and crooked noses. The best part was when they actually broke out in a fight! Well that and we won 1 to 4.
