Keepin' ya Posted!

Just a little update post!

Today is my big brother, Drew's 22nd birthday! I feel like he just turned 16 yesterday and I made him this silly little picture frame with cheesy phrases all over it like, "I don't act my age." Don't forget that sweet mini-van he had, either. Happy Birthday, brother! I love you! Did you get my card?

I posted this a little earlier through Facebook, but it's still relevant!

As ya'll know, Kels and I are doing the 30-day Squat Away challenge and we are successfully on day 13! We just put 75 squats to work! I'm pretty proud of us. We took our first spinning class tonight on campus. It was so fun and my goodness my butt feels it! Those seats are NOT comfortable, but we did 17 miles on the spinning bikes! WHAT? I know! I couldn't believe it either.

First Week at UNCC!

Graduation Day!



My Graduation Party!
 

The next few weekends are going to be super busy. My parents are coming to visit in a couple of weeks, I'm so excited to show them around! They haven't been here since move-in back in August (of course I've went home). I can't wait to see them!

A little throw-back to my grandparent's 50th Wedding Anniversary party!

**Incoming College Freshman Tip: Whether you're close or not to your parents or family (which I am) you will miss them. You'll even miss the little annoying things they do. The funny thing is though, when you go back and visit home, you'll miss your dorm room! Visiting never gets old. It's weird at first, basically because you're "visiting" your own home. But, that's growing up! The feelings are worth it. I would say don't go home the first month after you move-in, it's hard to come back to school after that. You're just getting used to your new surroundings.

I take the Praxis Core test this Friday, so prayers are much appreciated! I'm not freaking out about it per-say, but tests are tests and they're not fun. I just have to look at the bright side. One step closer to the College of Education and becoming a teacher! Speaking of, I cannot believe I am almost finished with my last semester of Freshman year. That's a little weird considering I just moved-in last August, that was like yesterday, right?

Anyway, this is just a quick post. I really want to thank every one who has continued to read Because College. I reached 900 views this week and that is amazing! I am so happy people are interested and supportive. You guys rock!
