My Predictions

My Freshman year was an interesting year. It was a learning experience to be away from home and to make those decisions for myself that frankly I took for granted. But that is beside the point. My Freshman year was a lot of fun too. One of my favorite memories was actually a night in February.

Oscar Night.

My room mates and I 'made a bet' - well, predicted who we thought would win and said we would give food to the winner of those predictions.

Well ... I won that night. I don't even remember what won that year (it may or may not have been the year that Departed won).

Anyway ... my mom, my sister and I decided to do the same thing this year. We're each making our predictions and we'll find out whose right.

So here are my predictions:

Best Picture -- "Black Swan"
