The REAL new Facebook layout

It’s whiteboard themed and exists on my door:
Yes, my floormates are just that cool. I love them.
I don’t really love how much Facebook has permeated everyone’s lives.
Snow sculptures
Internet, Photos | February 6, 2010
Last Saturday, I saw life-size snow and ice sculptures for the first time at “Snow Days in Chicago.” It obviously wasn’t a life-altering event, but it was a “first” nevertheless, no matter how mundane:
This one was my favorite, but it wasn’t in the sculpture contest — it was sponsored by Cuties Clementines, which are only the best things ever.
These two tied for my second favorite. The “Bug’s Life” one looks better, but I’ve always liked clocks and time symbolism.
Chi-town!
After seeing all the sculptures, my friends and I watched part of an amateur snowboarding contest (one snowboarder wiped out every time because he needed to pull up his pants — they were down to his knees! I would’ve probably sympathized with him more if he weren’t practically mooning us), ate Cuties (!!), and then headed over to chat at an Italian café. They didn’t have tiramisu, which was highly upsetting.
The night before, all the fraternities came to the sorority quad on campus for serenading (they sang to us and handed out roses, and we sang back), followed by eating and dancing the night away (each sorority was paired up with a frat). If any of you were wondering, I’m going to go through with initiation and officially join my sorority. Last night we had a retreat/sleepover, which made me further realize how much I love those girls.
So other than that, I’ve been going to classes, working, sleeping, shoveling food into my mouth, etc.
P.S. Doppelgänger week on Facebook is annoying! Half the people who change their profile pictures don’t look anything like the celebrity they think they look like. And I don’t have a doppelgänger, sadly. MyHeritage told me my best match was Gabrielle Union. She’s black. I’m Asian. Does anyone else see the problem here?
