Meteor showers
 

Is anyone planning on watching the Leonid meteor showers tonight? They're starting at midnight, with the peak time around 5 a.m. They say that this will be the best shower until 2099. I want to watch, so if anyone in Bloomington wants some company, let me know.

I am gonna watch them , I heard the are supposed to be the greatest one ever:D

We're supposed to go out to the boonies tonight to watch after hitting the bars, but it's really foggy here right now. I hope it clears up so we can see something!

Saw it! :)

My husband and I got up at 4am (me, the anti-morning person!) and went out into our yard, lay down, and watched until 5:45 or so. It was sooo cold - 25 degrees or so - but it was worth it for the show! We probably saw about 10-15 a minute at one point. I'm so glad it was a clear night where we were. :)

So last night a few girls from our chapter sorta had a sister retreat during the meteor shower. About 8 of us camped out on the sidewalk outside our house. It was soooo cold. But way fun. We had like 6 blankets piled on all of us. The fraternity next to us had initiation last night so when they came out of their house this morning we were still there.. :) but we all went and got breakfast. It was definately a good bonding night for us sisters. But the meteor shower was beautiful. Anyways, I thought I would tell you my little story about the meteor shower night. :D

Aww it was pretty good!! I didnt get to see the peak of it b/c I went to bed but I was up until like almost 4 am watching!! I sat in my car and watched thru the sunroof! haha it was soo cold out !! :)

Nichole

I'm so jealous of you guys that got to see it!! It was crazy foggy here all night, so we couldn't see anything. :(

DAMN FOG
 

We had our sapphire ball, and well it was in Pittsbugh, and we had a dese fog alert... we would go outside, and couldnt see our hand in front of our face... bah!

My boyfriend and I laid in the front yard with his roommate, next door neighbor and the NDN's girlfriend, drinking mimosas and watching the shower. ;) We got up at 4:30 and stayed out for a little over an hour. Not as big as I expected it to be, but it was still definitely worth the early wake-up call. :)

Props to all of you who got up early...I just stayed up until 5 AM. It was soooo damn cold, we ended up watching through the sunroof window, but it was still awesome. Thank God for heat in the car eh?? :)

it was great!
 

My boyfriend and I got up at 4 a.m. and drove to the beach to watch the shower. It was great! But we kind of froze b/c it was so windy, so we only stayed about 45 minutes. But definately worth it though.
