This weekend was my sorority’s formal. My big sister, Octavia, planned the event and she did a fantastic job!
Our evening started at the Malibu Pier, where we all gathered together to take pictures. Then, we went our separate ways in little groups to dinner. My little group went to this delicious restaurant called Plate. And finally, we met back at the buses that transported us to a restaurant right on the water where we danced the night away!
I really did have a great time!
I have been enjoying all of the sorority festivities so far, but this one in particular was probably my favorite. We had our big/little sister reveal the other night and not only did I get a wonderful big sister, but also a twin too! Meet Octavia, my big sister (in the middle), and Valeria, my twin (on the right).
I am loving our little family already! These two are the sweetest.
Yesterday, my sister came to pick me up (as she usually does on Sundays) and we spent the entire day together (as we usually do on Sundays). It has become our thing…we call it Sunday Funday! It was a simple day but still fun. I always love spending time with my sister and having this one day a week together where I really get off campus is a nice break too! On this particular Sunday, we went to the Farmer’s Market in the morning. And I have decided that when I am older and start a family of my own, I want to live near a Farmers Market where we can all go to together once a week. I don’t quite know how to explain it, but there is something special about a Farmers Market. I think the one of the reasons why is probably because it is outdoors and you are breathing in fresh air. To me, that alone beats the stuffy, fluorescent-lit grocery store and weaving in and out of peoples grocery carts.
Later that night, we drove out to Santa Monica for dinner and some shopping. We think we have found one of our new favorite restaurants…Tender Greens!
