Capital Cities came to UNCC to play a concert a few weekends ago. I didn't really know what to expect, since the only song I know by them is "Safe and Sound," but they were awesome! I have a couple of videos (crossing my fingers that they upload correctly) to show you guys. I went with Katie and Kelsey, my current roomies, and the best part was- it was for free!
Concert ready!
Capital Cities!
They were so good!
The concert was toward the end of the week, so the anticipation for Easter weekend was steady rising! I was so excited to get home.
On Thursday, Kels and I hit the road and headed back to the 910. I can't reiterate enough how ready I was to go home. I couldn't wait to see my family, plus my brother was home. That's pretty rare nowadays since we're both busy with school and in two different cities. It was a weekend FULL of family selfies, food, of course a little shopping, and fun.
Friday, we went to Myrtle Beach (oh boy, has the tourist season started) and hit the NASCAR Speedpark. Brother and dad raced cars all day, while mom and I played video games. It was fun watching them race each other and to hear their excuses on why they lost, typical boys.
Family car selfie!

Brother and Mom casually attacked my camera.
On Saturday, I finally got back into the swing of things at work. Summer can't come fast enough- I need some shopping money, probably money for insurance, my phone, and gas, but definitely shopping! I stopped by MaryLou's house that night on the way home from work. I have missed her so much!

Naturally.
Easter Sunday, we all got up and went to church. Brother had to leave to go back to school that morning. Luckily, I didn't have to leave until Monday morning! My 12:30 class was cancelled, so it gave me an extra day home.
Easter morning family selfie!
Sweet Nana and Mama!
The rest of Sunday was pretty steady. Grandma made a wonderful Easter lunch and we munched on that the rest of the day. I had to pack everything up to come back to school- my least favorite part.
Monday morning was my Mom and Dad's 24th wedding Anniversary! That's so great. I think love like that is so uncommon these days, especially high school sweethearts. They are the best people I know and I can't wait for them to have 24 more years!
Kels and I got back to school on Monday afternoon and went to math class (barf). Tuesday was pretty slow. Yesterday (Wednesday) Katie, Charlotte, Kels, and I went to Southpark Mall and had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. Yum! We've had a couple of roomie nights this week and that's not very often, so it was nice to hangout with all three of them! It's definitely going to be weird not seeing them everyday next year. Change will be welcomed though, I think we're all ready for something new!
Tuesday night roomie dinner at the Bistro!
I had dinner tonight with Laura (future roomie) at Crown and we were talking about next year! We are so excited about decorating and living closer to our classes. I made a board on Pinterest y'all! I'm already planning decorations for my room! I'm sure there will be a post about it when it all comes together in, ya know, 3 or so months.
This weekend is going to be filled with playing catch-up with homework, papers, and getting ready for final exams. There's exactly two weeks from today that I will be home for summer break! I can't wait. I hope everyone had a fantastic Easter weekend! To all of my college friends: just two more weeks guys, we got this!
