1968 Catherine's postcards -Jan.29
1:20 AM, January 29, 1968! ! ! Hi, everybody! Guess what? I just finished opening the presents . Thanks for everything. As you can see I am putting the post cards to immediate use! The mirror with the lights is just what I needed – the light in here is so bad! The bicycle rack is perpecto and the scales I love – 15 pounds now I've lost, I'm down to 115 and still watching those beautiful calories which I'm not eating. However, all the clothes are too big – (I haven't tried the petty pants or slip yet but the shorts are unbelievable..) Can I return them to the Sears here or do I send them someplace, save them for Roberta or what? Tonight was the fireside at Pres. Hicks, very informative and lots of good food! Last night I went to a movie with John M (Bruce's roommate). It wasn't a date, we just went together because we both wanted to go the same place. Bruce was there alone so the 3 of us ended up together. What a weird triangle! I went to church this morning and then I met this very interesting guy, Dave, who has almost talked me into joining the Yoga group here on campus. I went to the session today but I wasn't properly dressed so I didn't enjoy it too much! It may conflict with some other things tho! did I tell you I'm working a little? That's what I needed the black skirt for. So far I've worked a total of 3 hours and made $4.02. I'm not rich yet, in fact I don't even have enough to go to Florida on – at least I think there might still be reason to go! What's the latest on Spring vacation? I get out the 21 – last exam ends at noon! Thanks for all the presents and the stamps! Love, Catherine
Helloe friends! At the rate I'm using these postcards they're going to last about a month at the most! Today (it is now 1:20 PM 1/29/68) I got two more packages. What a beautiful outfit! And how did you know blue was such an appropriate color? the skirt will have to be shortened but other than that it is a perfecto – mucho perfecto! The other package was a real shockeroo from Al Kates. (Besides one Christmas card I haven't even heard from him since September) He sent this pillow cover from Niagara Falls in Canada. Also in the mail today I got a card from Dennis (his package was a two-eyed yellow goobie gook with long hair!). I got a nice present of about $30 from Greyhound and also an admission ticket to the civil service test on Feb. 10. I got my "Miss Boopadoop" paper back today. He doesn't give grades – just comments. I'm writing my next paper – due Wednesday – on the advantages of not getting married until you reach at least the trip old age of 26-30. I'm sure I'm a real authority on the subject! I was going to write it on why every woman needs three husband but that didn't quite fit the assignment. Serena, have you heard from Judy yet? Oh, yes, I was going to tell you what the assignment for English was – we have to pick some aspect of family life as described in this essay by Margaret Mead and attack it either negatively or positively. I better get over to the library now and study calculus some more before class. I've switched over to the WSJ from CSM as far as news papers! How could I have forgotten to thank you all for the KC box of stuff – it comes in very handy and being KC makes it all the better!
Love, Catherine
