Highlights of Winter Break 2011!

I'd like to share some highlights of my lovely winter break, 2011.

Movies I watched:
  • Win-Win: 9/10. Quirky, smart, well-written.
  • Sherlock Holmes 2: 7/10. Cool villain, action-packed, funny. Kisses to Robert Downey Jr.
  • 50/50: 5/10, not just because it's 50/50, ha. I crack myself up. No, but seriously it's difficult to make a movie about cancer uplifting and funny. This movie did not do either.
  • Footloose: 6/10. Cute movie to see with Jenny. It stayed pretty true to the original.
  • One Day: 2/10. There will be no day when this movie is good. Flat. Boring. Emotionless. Stupid ending.

People I saw:
  • The Bruning Bunch, Paulette, Stacey, Martha (college friend and sorority little sister), Kevin (college roommate), Natalie, Kylie, Katie, Mike, my family and several Albionites.

Food I ate:
  • Delicious sushi that Jenna and I made at the NYS Food and Wine Center.
  • Delicious buffalo chicken pizza at Avanti's.
  • Delicious burger at the famous Grover's.
*Disclaimer, this is obviously not all the food I ate. I ate much, much more, which is in part why I needed to extend my gym plan.

Games I played:
  • Taboo at Jenna's Game Night.
  • The Story Game.
  • Telepath.
  • Salad Bowl.
  • Dealbreaker. *obviously*
  • Horseballs.
  • Wii!
  • Trivial Pursuit.
  • SmartAss.

Things I did:
  • Read Bossypants by Tina Fey.
  • Went to a Bills game with Paulette, Stacey and Mike!
  • Went on a wine tour.
  • Learned how to make sushi! Thanks Jenna!
  • Dropped Betsey off at the airport to go to Europe for a semester!

Gifts I received:
  • Wii!
  • MarioKart!
  • A sweet t-shirt that has a fallen tree on it. It says "Hello, can anybody hear me?"
  • Books

  • Sushi Making Class!
