Last night, I invited my ITA, Shuying, over to my house for a movie night. Shuying had been in the lab all day so she was excited to hang out and relax. She is currently doing research on rocks from the moon! I told her how my brother just received his Masters in Astrophysics from MIT and is working on something similar at his job. She was so interested! We then proceeded to Facebook stalk my brother which was a fun way to show Shuying what my family is like.
Then Shuying met my roommates and we all sat on the porch and talked for a long time. They got along great! She really liked my house and my neighborhood because of all of the college students everywhere (I told her that where I live is referred to as the "student ghetto"). She really liked how my house felt like a home. Shuying wants me to help her decorate her apartment so she can feel at home too.
I let Shuying decide what movie we should watch and had her pick from my movie collection. Out of all of the movies she picked out her top three choices: Sex and the City, Legally Blonde, and Clueless. Shuying loves chick flicks and she LOVES pink. We decided on Legally Blonde and Shuying was laughing the entire time! Throughout the movie she had questions about sororities, fraternities, and other things like that. After the movie, Shuying had to head home to Skype with her mother back in China. Next weekend Shuying wants to make me homemade Chinese food!

It sounds like you guys had a great time, Claire. I can't blame her for dying during Legally Blonde... I'm unashamed to say it's one of my favorites :P
