Evacuation
My haircut and cat!
Two days into school, Irene made us evacuate. My Texan roommate and I fled to my home in Richmond on Thursday, and we spent the long weekend playing with cats, picking apples, baking zucchini bread and apple crisp, barbecuing, henna-ing our hair, putting honey and oatmeal on our faces, watching movies, meeting up with William and Mary friends in Richmond, working on Monroe projects, and running around in the rain pretending to be reporters. I also got a five dollar haircut.
All in all, it was a good time, but by Saturday we were itching to get back to William and Mary. When the school announced that classes were cancelled for Tuesday too, we groaned and went on Facebook to complain and commiserate with our friends, who were also ready to go back to school.
Dear Irene, way to make a mess of things, but thanks for leaving most of campus intact. It’s good to be back.

Nice blog, Bernice. ^^ Very cute. I was pretty happy to be back on campus, too. 😀
