Finals Week and the Chicago ice storm

December 12, 2007

By Marissa Cianchetti
First of all I just wanted to apologize for not writing a blog last week. Last week was finals at Centre, which was a rough week. It is my only week when I can forget about all my outside responsibilities. I can actually disappear into a black hole, which is also known as [...]

This past weekend I played in Old Bridge’s annual Chili Scramble. I had a lot of fun playing in the event not just because I got to see everyone I play with all summer, but also because my team won!
