I’ve become quite accustomed to this hotel already. I guess I’m used to hotel rooms now. I can’t even imagine how much my dad misses home when he’s away if I already miss Connecticut and I’ve only been away for a week. I went down to breakfast and was very pleased to see thatContinue reading “sometimes you just gotta dance”

meet me in st. louis…and bring an umbrella!
I have no idea how these girls manage to keep up this frenetic pace in the postseason. I’m not even doing half the work they’re doing and I feel like I’m about to keel over. But since we arrived here in Missouri today, I might as well impart what went on today. It will beContinue reading “meet me in st. louis…and bring an umbrella!”
we ain’t so bad…
“Coming in to congratulate me again?” Of course, Dad. We’re going to St. Louis! I’m pretty tired, I won’t lie to you (and would I ever lie to my devoted blog-viewers?). We got back to our car at around 2 in the morning last night in Manchester, so I think I crawled into bed aroundContinue reading “we ain’t so bad…”
marissa coleman needs a hug
Thank you’s need to go out to John Altavilla from the Courant for showcasing my blog today. Although I must tell you, my name is spelled Alysa, not Alyssa. You are not the first person to butcher my name, so don’t feel too guilty about it. It’s not nearly as bad as when I getContinue reading “marissa coleman needs a hug”
scared-y cats at a huskies game
No Louisville in the Final Four. I was really hoping they’d gut it out, but I guess it wasn’t meant to be. Maybe next year. I’m getting quite popular. One of the guys who comes to the games in a UCONN cape and ball Afro hat on his head came up to me as IContinue reading “scared-y cats at a huskies game”
symbol of might to the foe
So, we have two-with potential for three-Big East teams in the Men’s Final Four! I was thrilled to see Villanova beat Pitt, not only because Nova is one of my favorite teams, but because I think that of all the teams left in the tournament, Pitt was the only one that could give our UCONNContinue reading “symbol of might to the foe”
eating meat on fridays still is a problem…
First of all let me say this: GO WILDCATS! I was thrilled watching last night’s Villanova/Duke game (I am the daughter of Philly people, after all). Nova played an incredible game from a defensive standpoint. They forced Duke to play their tempo, and by the end of the game, Coach K’s team was completely wornContinue reading “eating meat on fridays still is a problem…”
cue the theme from ‘jaws’
If this blog looks slightly disjointed it’s because I’m currently pulling myself out of the depths of a disgusting virus that’s currently having a field day on my ENT. Now that I’m properly medicated and fed (Amy’s Organic Soups are ridiculously delicious), I’m ready to blog! Dad’s way of dealing with my sickness wasContinue reading “cue the theme from ‘jaws’”
it’s sneakernight
Cannot believe they’re using a Vanessa Hudgens song for the NCAA women’s theme song. What? This idea kind of has been percolating in my head for a few days. I saw how popular Rebecca Lobo’s Twitter has become, but I honestly didn’t feel like just giving you small soundbites, no matter how funny hers areContinue reading “it’s sneakernight”
