Home Sweet Home

So, I'm back home for the summer. Its been an interesting freshman year in college. I've changed a lot. You don't realized how many things are different and how much you change, because its happens gradually throughout the year. I've sat back and looked at everything I've accomplished this year. I'm able to take care of myself (well, except for money...but I'm trying. I'm only 19, so that part shouldn't count yet, right?), I'm able to take care of others, I've learned a lot more self-discipline. I'm ready for summer, and I'm happy to be back in Savannah where I can go to the beach when I want, and not feel bad for leaving after 2 hours because I only drive like 30 or 45 minutes to get there and not...2 or 3 hours. I'm happy to see my friends and family. MOSTLY, I can't wait to go to New York, Seattle, & Atlanta this summer. :) I have a lot planned!

Time to go see my cousinnnn :)

I've done so much. We left on Thursday at 6:45 am & got to Atlanta at 10:00 am. (I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be a 4 to 4 1/2 hour drive...and we got there in 3 hours, ON A BUS. It should have been almost 4 1/2 to 5 hours since we were on a bus. Oh well. We got there, sang at 2 high schools and a church on Thursday. Friday, we went to 3 more high schools. The last 2 schools had to think the sopranos were bad because I felt like we were screeching. I don't know. Maybe it was just me. I'm pretty sure we were all half dead though. It was fun...so I should complain, it was just very tiring!

When I got back on Friday at 6, I had to get dressed, do my hair & makeup, and book it over the the banquet to finish setting up with everyone. I bought all the decorations, but since I wasn't there to help, everyone else just tried to put everything up the way I had described. They did a great job & it looked AMAZING! I only changed a few things because I'm a tiny bit OCD. :)

Ashley Chisholm wanted to be in the picture. :)

Skittles, Omar, Rae Rae, Eric, Domo, Landan, & Rodney. (Bruhs & Sorors)

This was our very first band banquet at VSU, but we made the most of it, and everyone I've talked to had a BLAST! :) The lighting was awesome, the DJs were GREAT, (One of my sorors, AJ had her boyfriend and his dad DJ for us) the food was amazing, and the caterers was the nicest people EVER. We had a slideshow of pictures from the season playing during the banquet, and we presented our amazing presidents of Kappa Kappa Psi and Tau Beta Sigma with gifts. 


Today, I went and saw the Vagina Monologues with Tori, Amelia, & Carolyn. [1-4 yay!...it wasn't really planned like that though. haha] Anyways, we went & saw the show, and Jordan was in it. It was the first time I'd ever seen her act, and she was of course...AMAZING. :) I met Jordan's best friend from home, Katie Beth, she was sweet. haha. Kaleb's watching a basketball game and talking about cracking his knuckles. Also, we are so tired...and can't stop yawning, haha. (A guy just purposely flopped a guy on the game...LOL <---- f'real.)

Look, its like free face blurring. The lighting sucked for taking pictures. Haha

Nighty Night.

P.S. I'm over 200 pageviews now. I've been waiting! haha :)
