Valentine's Month

February has been a great time at the CIMBA house. We are all settled after all of our travels over Christmas break. As you know February is either a happy month or a deeply depressing for for most girls. I for one, have been singles for the last... oh I don't even count any more years during this romantic month. So as the 14th approached there was talk of a girls dinner where we wear black and drink wine, then we were told that we had plans.... The surprise had been set. No other clues were given. On the day of St. Valentine, we of course had class, but there was something wrong... nearly all of the guys were not in class. James, the organizer, then comes into the room and tells us all to line up.... we were excited now! The streaming trail began, all the guys had been assigned a girl to give a rose to. It was SO cute! AND they had more surprises! They cooked dinner for us, from scratch... Parmesan chicken, grilled veggies, roasted potatoes, and garlic bread. They had even bought a dessert! We were not allowed in the chicken the entire time. Such sweethearts. I also got chocolates from friends and other goodies. The day after I got cards and presents from family and friends back home!! It was the greatest Valentine's month. I call it a month because it has lasted, and I haven't even gotten my parent's stuff yet. Although, their's will probably come next month because they get behind! :)

So many people work so hard to help everyone here not feel so homesick and its so great to see that. Thank you to everyone!! Love you guys!!
