I’m pretty excited for my upcoming trip to
Tonight I have to pack and get money out of the ATM. I’m not real sure what to bring, but I’m sure I’ll manage. I would like to go out to a bar or something at least once, but my roommate seems less enthusiastic about that.

I’ll report back fully on my spring vacation on Saturday.
Oh! And it turns out that UWM is doing really awesome in the NCAA Tournament. Seriously, they're in the Sweet Sixteen. How cool is that? Too bad I don't have any Panther wear. Yes, it was too expensive, so I never got around to buying a sweatshirt or anything.
