They Say Home is Where the Heart Is

Well guys, I have a question for you. Who is happy about going home? This girl! Turns out having a big girl job and living on my own isn't what I thought it would be. But, I am moving back home now and will be looking for a new job. On the up side, I will definitely get more time with my family; which is what I wanted. For now, I think that spending a more relaxing and less stress inducing is just what the doctor ordered.

Well, that's all I have for now. Until next time...

Sweet Summertime

Well, it has literally been FOREVER since I have blogged. Like since last year when I was back at school. Every time I wanted to write, I either couldn't find the words to say, or I felt a sense of guilt for trying to procrastinate when I knew I had serious work to do. So, let me catch you up.

When I got back to school, I first joined this really awesome club called Campus Ambassadors and I love them dearly. I have gotten to meet some really fantastic people through CA's by keeping girls and taking tours with people. I cannot wait until this next year to see them all at school!

Then, I did what most college students do in the course of obtaining their degree. I changed my major. Not too much though. I was Business Administration and I changed to Marketing. And I love it!! I got to experience the 2 hardest classes of my entire college career but they were fun for the most part. haha. And I have found the best roommate ever and I love her to death! I have joined in two business clubs called the Student Marketing Association(SMA)and Future Business Leaders of America/Phi Beta Lambda(FBLA/PBL). They are great clubs that I am fortunate to be a part of

Also, I have found a place to work for the summer called Level One Marketing. I am very excited to get some hands on experience into the business world and to meet new people and really get to know them. Plus, my new friend Bonny will be working with me as well. Another thing that I am excited about is my workstudy next semester. I will get to do hands on Advertising and Marketing experience stuff that I am very excited about. I am also doing a First Year Experience Mentor program that allows me to really get to know the incoming freshman and get to talk to them about college and their faith and other things.

It has been an exciting year. And I have loved every minute of it! God has truly blessed me beyond measure and more than I deserve on so many things. I have a fabulous family, fantastic friends, a great job that I can't wait to start, and most importantly, He is my Savior that loves me no matter how many times I screw up and that I fall short of His expectations. And I am eternally grateful.

Well, that's about it guys! I love you all and I will try not to let it go so long again before I blog! haha. Until next time! :)

Procrastination...

Life back @ North Greenvile is amazing! I love it here sooo much! It feels good to be back. After this weekend, we will have been here a month and a half. Time flies by so fast. But it's been great. Me and my roommate, Kaylin have been getting along so well. I couldn't have asked for a better roomie. Love you, mean it! :)

Classes have been going well too. Classes that I am taking include: MicroEconomics, Oral Communications, Small Business Management, New Testament, and Political Science. The test that I have for tomorrow is in New Testament. I'm not too worried. We had a study group so I feel pretty good. I just need to make sure I know it for sure. I really have missed it here. Even class. haha. Weird, I know

So I am now a Campus Ambassador and significantly happy about it. I had my first sneak previewer on Thursday night. I got to show her around and kind of introduce her to college life and the ins and outs. So that was a good experience and was glad to have gotten the first one out of the way. Also, my first Encounter Day is coming up and I will get to give tours and such things helping with that and I'm excited about that.

Labor Day Weekend was good because we got a break from schoolwork and the like and went hiking with Kaylin and her family. We couldn't have picked a better day and it was amazing! I saw the first waterfall that I have ever seen then too. I actually got to see 3 waterfalls so it was a great day!

Well, I do have test I have to study for and a meeting in an hour. Intramural football is also on the way too! :) Until next time....

6 DAYS!!!

It is officially 6 more days until I move back into my new home known as Room 26 at NGU!!! To say that I am really excited would be an understatement. Though I am extremely exhuberant, it is a little bittersweet for my parents. They love having me here but they know I love it there and they love that I want to get my degree and @ North Greenville. I will miss being at home and some of the comforts it brings and my parents. I especially cannot wait because I will be sharing a room with one of my best friends, Kaylin! Of which I am very happy about. It will be nice to have someone in the room the better part of the time to talk to and such. Speaking of Kaylin, I miss her and the others terribly. But when I think of this, I just remember that we have only 6 days! Which would be even better if we didn't have to go back the not the next day, but the day after. Oh well, might as well have something to keep busy. and the learning part as well of course....

Though I am looking forward to moving in, I am not looking as much forward to packing up. There's just so much stuff to remember!! I would feel as if I'm missing something even when I'm not. But I know everyone feels that way at some point so I would guess that it's natural.

And as nerdy as it sounds, I am actually quite excited about starting classes. I'm guessing that this is due to the fact that the better of my classes have something to do with my major. Of this, I am particularly glad. I have even looked at books and prices and things of that nature. They are not as expensive as last semester thank goodness.

But anyways, I went to Books A Million tonight and read in a book that I had been reading in that was really interesting. While we were there, we got something to drink. And of course I got the mango smoothie and it was amazing! Mango is like my favorite fruit as of recently. I guess you could say it's my new thing... but just thought that was worthy of sharing :)

Well, I guess that's pretty much it. I will have more to tell after move in and before classes. And of course after classes start. Well, until next time....

Oh, hello Charleston...

I love Charleston! I am continually amazed by how gorgeous it is. Just riding around on a sunny day through town makes me happy. I guess one of the main reasons why I love it so much is because it is so full of history. It's a timeless city. And when my family and I lived in Myrtle Beach, we would come down to Charleston pretty much every Saturday and spend family time. My dad would tell me about parts of the history about Charleston and I would listen intently hanging on every word. I dare say that Charleston is one of the reasons that I grew to love history so much and do so well in the subject while in school. When I was little, I promised myself that when I got older, I would live in Charleston. My dream is still ever present and growing as I go back to visit this marvelous city time and time again.

Some things going on in my life right now, well, there is really not that much to tell. I miss my friends terribly and long to see them in a week's time. I can't believe that the summer is almost over! My goodness. Though I am sad to see most of my free time go, I cannot wait to start back another semester. I cannot believe that we will be sophomores! Seems just like yesterday we were in orientation as freshman and now we're not the new kids on the block. Well, I will write more later when there is more to speak of. until next time....
