So most of you have probably not met my parents. My mom came to visit me at school in February of my freshman year, and my dad occasionally comes to NYC for business. I did drag my mom to a basketball game and a wind ensemble concert, so in theory she met people. My dad knows my suitemates from freshman year, and that is it.

The reason for this is simple. My parents are awesome and I don't want to share them with you. I might rethink this next year.

My parents tell me that I am smart and special and awesome, but also that I am weird. All of these things are true! (They would probably make some comment about my ego here.) They also have helped cultivate my sense of humor.

An example. Here is a snippet of an email conversation between me and my dad that took place today:

Sarah: Tomorrow I think I am going to Tel Aviv to the beach and then to the Biblical Zoo in Jerusalem, to see all of the nice animals!

Dad: I wonder if the keepers allow the animals to have sex in public in the biblical zoo?

Sarah: Well, they'd be demonstrating how to know something biblically. If that's not appropriate, I don't know what is.

Dad: Good point! Send pictures of anything suspicious or scintillating.

There you have it. I'm authorized to email my pictures animal on animal lovin'. My dad brought this up because the first day that I was an official tour guide at the Central Park Zoo, it was mating season and the animals were getting it on and I kept texting my parents when it happened.

So yes. My parents are awesome and I will be seeing them in less than 2 days!
