spring

Even the Blick am Abend thinks so.

The sun is shining in Basel once again, after a very long awaited and white winter. Yesterday was the first official day of an old buddy of mine named Spring. I'm so excited, I can't even begin to explain. Spring comes hand-in-hand with flip flops, unexpected showers of warm rain, and fun with my friends outside the closed perimeters of our cement houses. I came back from the Swiss-Teams Final Round on Sunday, and although our destination wasn't the happiest place, had a great time with Sacha and his family at the hospital visiting his grandma. (Apparently, she thinks i'm super!!) We returned to my house and had dinner with my mom (yes, lamb again. we're greek :)) and then I was in for an early night.

Yesterday, I experienced probably the greatest thing that has ever been invented: RadioBallet.

This was practically too much fun to have on a Monday night, but nonetheless, Sacha and myself danced, jumped, whipped and fiddled our way around the St.Johann bahnhof for the 1.5 hour theater. I returned home with a feeling of utter joy buried deep within me, which i haven't experienced for a long time.

Tonight I'm accompaning Jackie to Zurich for the 30 Second to Mars concert. It will be radical; I can't wait. Tomorrow morning, I have parent/teacher/student meetings. This, I can wait for.

5 minutes til Math. Period 9 of the day. Pray that i'll get through it in one piece. [Is Milan here?]

Yupee-doo-da, and have a good afternoon.


A Cartoon that caught my eye: http://beniaminus.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Agnes-Ponders-the-Coolness-of-Crafts.jpg [maybe because my artsy-side has been shining more than my logical one lately. Oh, another thing to mention: I have now officially registered for the May 1st SAT sitting. VERY exciting.]
