So, dinner last night was interesting. It was good seeing old friends, and catching up. It's crazy how slowly you the past repeats itself. Having dinner with the GANG again was like we had never been separated for a year. Everyone was pretty much the same. Andrew & Mark still crazy as ever & lovable ;) The girls still being loud & talking about all our old crazy times. I honestly couldn't have asked for better friends. It is so nice to know that no matter where life takes, it always brings you back to the people who were there first, & the ones who will always be there in the end. Mark & Dane are both leaving for Iraq in about 16 days. I can just remember meeting both of them for the first time, & I never would have thought I would be saying good bye to them. I just pray & hope that it won't be the last, but what ever happens........it's all in God's hands now & I trust him.
I thought that I would love this whole living on my own apartment thing, but between my mom & grandpa, I don't know how much more I can take. I love them, but they over think things to much. I just want to get everything I need & not worry about it anymore. There is so much I need, but I have so much already. I am so thankful to have wonderful, & generous giving people in my life. I have felt so blessed with everything I have been given already. I feel like I'm really growing up, but a part of me still wants to cut loose & just be a teenager while I am still considered one. It's hard to believe I will be 19 in less than a month, let alone next year when I will be 20. I love my life though. No matter how stressful, crazy, & chaotic it may be ...it's my life & I wouldn't trade it for the world.-All is love ;)
OKAY! Sooo, I haven't been on here for a few weeks, and I apologize. Things have been so hectic moving back home for the summer, and to think I have to do this all over again in August when I move back to Morgantown to my apartment. I finally got my grades after a week of anxiety. I got a 3.0 this semester. I thought I was going to get a 3.3, but I am happy with a 3.0 ..& espeically after last semester. College is not a cake walk, especially when you just do what you have to, to get by. I worked really hard this semester, and prayed a lot. I was struggling in one class that I felt should have been easy, but after I did horrible on the first two exams, I decided that I needed someone elses help. So, I prayed asking God to help me retain all the information I was studying, and when I got the results back to my test, I was ecstatic. I was 2% away from a B, and I couldnt believe that I had done that well. I am a prime example, along with many others, that God works amazing miracles, and all you have to do is ask.
Tonight, the GANG from high school is getting together for dinner and a movie for the first time since last summer. I have already ran into a few old friends, so it will be nice to see everyone again after a year, && to top it all of I just got a phone call from Kevin telliing me he can come up to see me this afternoon when he gets off work. Which makes me really happy because if I would't get to see him today, then I wouldn't get to see him till next weekend. It isn't easy going from seeing someone everyday to once or twice a week. We have done it before, so I know we can do it. I'm glad to be home, but I miss him a lot.
Well, I'll let you know how the "reunion" went sometime tomorrow.
&& also, I just found out that my good old friend Mark Waggamon, who is a marine, is being sent to Iraq in 17 days. So, keep him in your thoughts and prayers during is time there. I plan on writing him and sending him care packages and I will keep you posted on how he is doing! ;)
Soooo, my walk to the coliseum wasn't too bad. I actually found out that there is a bus that takes you from engineering to the coliseum, so it makes the walk a little easier. Although, today was awful because of the rain. My whole backside was soaked! I was dreading walking back to my dorm, but thankfully Jessica offered me a ride. She kind of owed me since I gave her a ride last week before I got Kevin's car towed (lol). Kevin and I were going to go fishing today at Mason lake, but the rain ruined everything. Kev just bought me this pink fishing pole that lights up, so I'm pretty excited to catch a big fish with it ;) ..Nothing much really happened today other than class & Tori came over to watch the Hills. Other than that, I have just been working on homework, and studying for my SOWK test on Thursday. I got a C- on my last test ;( so I'm hoping for an A on this one. I have an A right now in the class, so I shouldn't be too worried about this test, but I don't want to take any chances. I only have this week of classes, dead week, and then my two finals on the 5th and I'm DONE! I can't believe I'm almost done with my first year of college. It has been a bumpy ride, but completely worth it!
Well, since most of you have had the college experience, then I'm sure you know about the whole parking issue. I'm taking a mid-semester class (tennis) and it's clear at the Notorium Shell, which is back behind the coliseum. Kevin has been letting me drive his car because I have class downtown and have 40 minutes to make it to Evansdale campus. I haven't had any problems parking it at McDonald's across this street from my dorm until I have to go pick Kevin up from work at 3:45. Needless to say, my luck ran out. I parked his car at 2:00 and when I went to go get it I looked out the window to make sure it was there, and it wasn't. I was hysterical and freaking out. I called him crying and my mom crying. I just couldnt believe this happened. His dad had to pick him up from work and then me to go get his car. Luckily I had the money to pay the towing bill, but it was supposed to be used for my security deposite for my apartment for next year. I got it payed, and my mom took care of what I needed to pay the money for my apartment. Honestly, I believe God was right there making sure everything was ok in the end. I'm still upset about it, and I no longer have a way to class, except for walking and hoping that I make it to class on time. So, the past few days have been pretty interesting. I will never park at a fast food joint when I'm not eating there. I definitly learned my lesson. I was born with bad luck! HAHAA ;) 
--This is for you, Matthew. I know you love Pat White. This was taken at my first WVU football game this fall. It was pretty exciting, and very hot for me. I got a sunburn on my legs from this game.
Hello family & friends ;)
So, as you all know I am a college girl now, and have been since August 2008. I decided that so much can happen in one day, & I don't normally get the chance to talk to everyone, so I'm going to hopefully take some time every day to fill you in on what's going on in my life, & what's happening in the college world. I miss you guys, & hope to see you soon.
P.S. I only have 12 more college school days left of my first year of college. I'll be returning back to Clarksburg most likely May 6th.
