This weekend was really different from the other weekends this semester, not only because it was the last before spring break, but it was the first that I didn't have DanceWorks rehearsals this semester. We had our annual show last week and it feels good to have all these hours back to get things done and do some fun things on campus.
Last Thursday we were lucky to have Alvin Ailey II, a modern dance company, perform on campus. They actually did a world premiere work commissioned by SU. It was really nice to be able to see them (and only for $5). In general Syracuse brings a lot of performers to the school throughout the year. That's one thing I love about SU, there's always something going on for students on the weekends.
Saturday two of my roommates and I went to see No Country For Old Men at one of the auditoriums on campus as part of University Union (UU). UU gets copies of recently released films to show on campus almost every weekend that students can go see for free without having to go to the mall - another fun thing to do with friends at SU.
And then Sunday was devoted to work and studying - mid semester week means two project reviews and two exams in two days. I'll be happy when Wednesday rolls around.
Happy March,
Jess
