So, I lasted a little over a week in my efforts to cut back on sweets and six packs (the drinkable kind). It all ended with these 2 words: Hershey Park. The land of chocolate. Oh, also these 2 words: Ben & Josh.

In summary, last weekend's meals revolved around reeses, Hershey's kisses, Goldschlager, some random Canadian beer, and pizza, while my celery sticks back home probably grew questionable at best in "consumability." A weekend with the boys.

It's ok, though. I've decided that living it up in my twenties is a much more admirable trait than holding back. "Live Live Live!" cries Auntie Mame, and I just can't help but join the collegiate bandwagon. Also, for the record, it's REALLY hard to go on the Hershey Park factory tour and not crave two pounds of chocolate afterwards.

So yes- the weekend was fun and full of splurging! We went on every roller coaster in the park, including 3 runs on the Lightning Racer (there are 2 sets of cars racing each other on the roller coaster- one is called Thunder and the other Lightning). Ben and I managed to beat Josh on Thunder 2 times out of 3. Also, we saved Fahrenheit for last- a really intense coaster w/ several vertical climbs and drops. Man, I love theme parks!

Now, I'm back at school, writing this from the Education building. My next class is in 14 minutes, so I guess I'd better gather up my books.

Oh, and sorry for the break from posting. I really will try to be better about keeping this up-to-date.

Till next time,

Kelly
