done, done, and DONE!

Freshmen year is finished, never to be repeated! Oh man, am I glad. I enjoyed the year immensely, though. It certainly went out with a bang. Friday was my roommate, Candace's, birthday. Evelyn and I (another roommate) conspired to plan a surprise party for her up on the mountain. A group of 4 of us often went up to a particular mountain at midnight to gaze up at the stars, and get away from school. I took up a group of people around midnight- there ended up being around 20 altogether, and then at one (it took them a bit longer than planned) they came up. We had a cake, and balloons, and a group of people waiting for her. So from 1-3am on Friday, I was partying it up on a mountain under the stars:)
I slept in Friday, since exams ended Thursday, and then began to pack for home. After lunch, Justin Bond and I headed down to LA. We went to USC for an MRI. USC was offering some money for a marijuana research program, so to help another roommate out on May term, we went down and did it. We split the money. That was one of those things I never thought I would do- participate in those 'phony' research assignments. But I did. Cross that one off the bucket list.
MRI was finished around 5- rush hour. I was NOT going to drive out of LA at 5. So we went to dinner, and then brought out the Garvin to see what was around. We ended up going down to Sunset Blvd, and Amoeba Records. Pretty neat place. On our tour of Sunset Blvd, we saw..... Annie Wersching and Kiefer Sutherland! Fairly random, but pretty awesome! They were across the street from us on a red carpet event. We made it back to campus around 9.
I watched a senior video, and then began to pack again..... Candace's mom was coming at 11, so it was a race to get the room semi-decent before she arrived. We made it look presentable, considering everyone's stuff was in the middle of the floor, and closets were empty ;)
At midnight, a group of us headed out under the gazebo, hearing that there was going to be a prank pulled. Well there was.... on us. A crazy Costa Rican (aka Stalin) and his friends brought out the eggs and began throwing them at us. It is tradition to throw eggs at the birthday-person, but they decided to expand a bit, and include Sarah and I. Fortunately, the egg shells were pretty hard. One was thrown at me, but didn't break. So I picked it up, and ended up smashing it over James. Which was both brilliant and foolish! I got him, but then I got chased down the field and had a nice scalp full of egg- I've always heard it's good for the hair, though.....
So that was that. After putting clothes in the wash, and washing my hair, I headed down to Lowes. Lowes is just a block away, and a bunch of us hang out behind it just for the sake of getting off campus. We sit on a wall that faces the freeway and watch the cars zip past and talk.
At 2am we had a room check to make sure we hadn't harassed any of the furniture too badly. After that it was bedtime! Bed at 3, up at 8:45 for graduation. Have you ever heard of a more extremist day? :D A great way to end the year- with the most random things that could have possibly happened.
