"Hey guys!  I&amp;#039;m back. Finally. After about a month and a half, second semester of my freshman year has begun! My classes are so much fun! I&amp;#039;m taking 17 units of Rhetoric, Ethics: Environmental Issues, Musicianship and the Principles of Tonal Theory, Learning &amp;amp;amp; Teaching, and Teaching, Learning, &amp;amp;amp; Technology. The last two are my night classes for my teaching credential. (I&amp;#039;m in that really cool program at my school where I get my undergrad degree and my teaching credential at the same time, remember?) Anyway, I had probably the most fantastic weekend ever (starting Thursday even though I had a Friday class)!  On Thursday, my group celebrated two birthdays at the Cheesecake Factory. Happy Birthday Tania and my roomie, Joanne! &amp;amp;lt;3 We had soooo much food. The bill was outrageous, but it was so delicious. We ate deep fried mac and cheese balls (yes, they are real; no, you shouldn&amp;#039;t eat them everyday) and later, Oreo cheesecake. I swear, I was still full when I woke up the next morning.  On Friday, I saw Hank and John Green, probably the two best and coolest brothers on this planet. If you don&amp;#039;t know who they are, you should check out their Youtube channel. Hank Green is an awesome entrepreneur and he&amp;#039;s started a bunch of things like VidCon (the hugest YouTube gathering each year) and EcoGeek - and he sings too! John Green writes YA novels, like Looking For Alaska, Paper Towns, and, more recently, The Fault In Our Stars (His best book yet in my opinion - it&amp;#039;s absolutely flawless!). They went on a book tour together for John&amp;#039;s latest book and I bought tickets for my older sister, Aly, and me for Christmas. After the show, the brothers agreed to meet everyone. It&amp;#039;s such a nice gesture, but in a sold-out show of 1,300 people, there was an incredibly long line. We waited about three and a half hours before we got to get our books signed and personalized - but it was 100% worth it!   On Saturday, a few friends and I decided to get some fro-yo and read some books in the Marina! We just sat there in a bookstore for half an hour and just read. After that, we had a nighttime adventure to the Palace of Fine Arts. It&amp;#039;s this really beautiful structure in San Francisco. It&amp;#039;s just gorgeous in the daytime, and at night, it&amp;#039;s even prettier!  On Sunday, I went to a free concert (in celebration of the Lunar New Year) in the middle of Union Square! We enjoyed the wonderful weather and took a whole bunch of pictures. The musicians who were there were Clara C and Jeremy Passion, who are both Youtube musicians. They&amp;#039;re so talented! After the show, I got to meet Jeremy Passion and it was awesome. :) I hope that this weekend was a nice foreshadowing for the rest of my semester. I plan on having a lot of weekends like this to share with you guys! Until next time and DFTBA, Mele "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
