reading day= over.

Well today was the lovely reading day. Basically what that means is the day after classes end and the day before finals begin. Also...usually people do nothing on reading day unless they have a final the next day, which I have one and Chad has two. So guess what we did all day...if you guessed studying then you are right! :) THUMBS UP! I am so tired of studying already. I really dislike Chad for looking at a powerpoint and reading it about twice, then going and making a 100 on the test. I cannot do that! For the life of me......i study and study and study and still come out with a poor grade. it is really discouraging. So anyway....finals start tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day when life officially is no fun for me until a week from today. I have a final every single day of finals. ALL FIVE DAYS! I am so stressed out and Chad is mister cool cat. He does not care. He wants to know why i stress1 :) he is silly! But continues to make me laugh when I want to cry and scream. I guess I will keep him around! I hope everyone had an awesome Tuesday!!!

Last day....

This is a pretty historical day....not only because Bin Laden is dead but also because this was my last day ever of my first year of college. I feel a little bittersweet about it. This year has taken me on a total crazy ride. Tonight we had our last Chapter meeting. All the senior got up and spoke about what their plans were and gave us some advice that they wish they were given. I sat there watching all the senior cry and tell their funny/emotional stories about how fast life goes by. That is totally how I feel right now. This year went by so fast. I cannot believe I will be applying to my major in August. That is crazy! Chad is well on his way to be graduation soon...or at some point. It is sort of a scary feeling to know in just 2 and half short years I will be out on my own. No college, no living under my parents roof or off their money, no just getting good grades to one day get a new job....I will actually be on my own. I totally just freaked myself out. Well good thing Chad and I have great families that surround us with love and encouragement every single day! You guys are awesome! and just to let everyone know....motivational text messages are totally appropriate this week. Chad and I are NOT MOTIVATED to study what so ever. TOTALLY BAD, I know. Anyway...i hope everyone had an awesome Monday!

The storm has arrived.....

dumm dumm dummm.....finals week is here. If i could "type" a scared frantic face i would, but i don't know how. I won't even begin to try. haha Anyway, wow! What a weekend this was! We had so much going on this weekend! I felt like i never stopped! Friday, Chad and I got up and watched the Royal Wedding! :) It was amazing!!! Later that night, I had a sorority date night. Chad and I went to that. It was at this awesome fancy place. There were two guys performing called the Dueling Pianos. They were so awesome. They had two key boards set up and girls would request songs. The two guys would play it and sing it, but it was sort of a contest of who could play it better. It was awesome! So that was on friday. Then Saturday, we met a lot of Chad's family for lunch. That was nice to see everyone and have an awesome lunch. Chad had to sing at a wedding on Saturday. He claims it was a disaster, but I bet it was awesome. Also yesterday, I had to babysit. That is always a blast. Then they had Twilight here in Athens last night. It is a huge bicycle race that they do downtown. We went to that. It was really cool. They block off most of the streets downtown, and the men and women race. Then today....I had rush workshop meetings and Chad has a test tomorrow. He has been studying. I have been hanging out at the sorority house. I think you all are now up to date on our lives now. this weekend has felt like forever long. I am just ready for this week to fly by. We will see! I hope everyone had an awesome weekend!

Calling out to all the survivors out there!

Hello!!! I hope everyone is safe and sound. We had some pretty rough weather last night. I believe the tornadoes started about 1 and lasted until about 2. I don't know. When you are woken up at that hour by an emergency phone call and rushing around trying to figure out what to do, you do not really think about the time. haha So anyway, it never got terrible here. We just had a bad thunderstorm it seemed like. The wind never really picked up. The lightening was terrible though. Enough with the weather though, Chad and I have been studying for finals. I am trying to stay focused. It hasn't worked out for me yet, but I will let you know when it does. Nothing has really been going on. I got news yesterday that one of my best friends is getting married, and I am the bridesmaid to me. That was exciting. That is about all the excitement that has happened here in Athens. Oh yes, one more thing.....yesterday was the nation wide day of $0.31 ice cream day at Baskin Robbins. I got a waffle cone and two scoops of ice cream for ONE dollar. It was fantastic. :) If you didn't take advantage of that, you should have! OKK! Everyone have an awesome day!!

Thankful Thursday List: Making it through the storm, ice cream, good smelling candles, my best friends wedding, family that i love so much, one and half more weeks of school, and the sunshine! What is on your list???

i figured.....

i figured since it was Tuesday I should probably blog. haha So much for keeping up with this everyday. Anyway, Easter weekend was amazing! I did not want to come back to school. Chad was ready of course because he wants to just get done. I am so ready! Nothing much has been going on. I keep saying this week is the calm before the storm. I do not have anything to do this week. But the next week and half I have five finals. I believe Chad does too. He has a lot of work to do this week though. He has been working hard. I cannot really think of anything else to say. haha so i hope everyone has had a great start to the week so far! :)

I never thought I would miss it as much as I do! We are so excited and so ready. This day is already dragging on! :( Anyway, last night Chad and I played ultimate frisbee. We lost once again. So we are done for this reason!! But we had so much fun and got to meet a lot of really cool people! We are looking forward to many more intramural sports in the future! That was about all we did yesterday. I had a lot of work to do. Chad had a test that he felt good about. So that was good. Now we are all packed and ready to come home!
