For those of you who don't know, Halloween is a huge deal in Chapel Hill. This year we had 75,000 people, most of whom had gone to "special parties" beforehand, out on Franklin Street in a scene of utter revelry. This picture is from 2000 with my Hinton James suitemates Jesse, Justin, Jason (+ ex-girlfriend Nikki), Jordan, and me (as the oh-so-sexy Hooters girl). My breasts were fondled many a time.

Basketball is a way of life at UNC. From left to right, we have Nikki, Jason, Aaron, Jesse, Jordan, and Justin all cheering on the Tar Heels at the Dean Dome. I'm behind the camera taking the picture, but I bet you can't guess what color shirt I'm wearing!

Spring Break of freshman year the rugby team went on tour to Spain. The stories are wild, if you e-mail me I'll be sure to share some of them. Even though I didn't know what I was getting into freshman year with rugby, I found a great sport, great friends, and great memories with the club. This shot is the "before" shot of the Spain tour, from the Charlotte airport.

Me and Lori at one of her Kappa Kappa Gamma mixers or cocktails or date functions or whatever they call those things! Lori is an awesome girl and a great friend, but she's in California now for graduate school in Chemistry. A whole life of chemistry! We had some great times together.

That's me and my brother Scott (my brother Scott and I, yes I know, I'm a journalism major!) on our way to a "pimps and hos" rugby party freshman year at UNC. He is now a junior at University of Central Florida, where he is studying to become an accountant. A whole life of being an accountant! I guess he would probably say the same about a whole life of writing or history though. Now that Scott is at college having a blast, it was definitely an honor that I was able to give him his first experience at a college party.

One of my favorite annual traditions, up there with Thanksgiving and the Super Bowl, is the Mets-Yankees Subway Series. For the past three or four years, me and my friends would get a hotel room in New York City, have a great night out, and take the 7 Train to the game. I don't know how into the game my friends were, but I'd go nuts for the Mets. There are many interesting stories about these trips also (blackjack, bird poop, just ask). This picture of Times Square is out our hotel room window at the Marriott Marquis, thanks Mommy for getting us the great rooms every year! Marriott employee benefits rule!

There is "Times Square" from across the ocean in London, the famous clock called Big Ben. On the aforementioned rugby tour to Spain freshman year, we had an eight hour layover in London, during which I saw the changing of the guard, Westminster Abbey, the Millenium Wheel, and drank cider in a pub. This picture is me and my friend Brett (I'm the one on the left, the blond hair was a one-time thing). If I haven't mentioned it already, which I know I have, that was an awesome trip.
