This week was just as eventful as last week, if not more! Classes were starting to vamp up, and every nite I had either an activity or club or meeting to attend, plus the idea of homework! Teachers were not easing into it, already had 2 big projects! But it's Labor Day weekend! Today is U of A's 1st football game of the season!!!! I couldn't be more excited!!!!
I think the bathroom mirror is my new selfie mirror, I miss the long wardrobe mirror at the house! 😂😂
Some highlights of my week....
I went to this bible study, a group called NAVS. I met some really sweet, caring girls but they will never replace my life group girls! Had coffee with one of them and found out we had so much in common!! Dealing with growing up, high school, boys! Grabbed coffee with her the other day!!! Looking forward to that every week!
Found out that the Elite program I'm in consist of the top 5% of the business school.. wow.... I'm in that! That was shocking to find out!! I'm slowly starting to make friends in that group! Everyone is so fun, we often just laugh at the meetings while being "professional". It will be a great group, where I can learn and grow a lit while getting a competitive advantage over the other students! I'm looking forward to those meetings, besides the part of dressing up, I prefer to be in my leggings and t-shirts!
Last highlight was having a pizza party with my hall! Talked and laughed for hours with the girls! We are becoming really close, some more than others! Someone is always always doing something and inviting you to go out, there's never a dull moment!
I've come to the realization that I miss my family! Sadie wanted to FaceTime the other nite and I could have cried! I miss my little stubborn princess! This week I've been off and on feeling down... this morning I woke up with a really stuffy nose and a sore throat! This is when I wish my mommy was here to take care of me! But she's just a FaceTime away!
I don't know how people made it through college without a phone back in the olden days! Everyday I am able to text, call and FaceTime my friends! I can not tell you how many facetimes I've had!!!! I love it! It makes me think for a few minutes that I'm with that person and not so far away!!!
I think the bathroom mirror is my new selfie mirror, I miss the long wardrobe mirror at the house! 😂😂
Hopefully by the end of the day I will not have a sore throat, stuffy nose, all homework done, so I can enjoy the game!!! Hopefully I will not lose my voice but looking like it may happen! Currently sound like a man!!
Love you guys!!!
Great 2nd week down and sounds like you are having a blast while remembering it's school :)! Pics are great and I'm happy to hear how well things are going. It is tough being away from home and homesick gets the best of us but it is nice to have FaceTime. Very proud of the way you are approaching school. You are amazing!!!

Well we see that you are off and running. Did we even doubt that you would make lots of friends. the top 5% is wonderful we are so proud of you. Hope your sore throat and stuffy nose is much better. It is always nice to be able to take care of yourself while away from home. Sadie is missing you but luckily she can face time you and that helps an awful lot. Yes back in the "olden days" it was very hard being away from your family and your friends with no phones and having to wait until after 7:00pm to call as it was cheaper. Now days you all have it like a breeze with all these "newfangled gadgets." LOL
ReplyDeleteWish the teachers would just let you all ease into the hard stuff slowly but I guess you are in college and they feel you all are ready for it. You've got this.
Football game sounds like it might be fun. I bet there will be lots of people there just like you, going for their first time.
Enjoy your time off and it seems as if you are putting your homework first and doing great. We think of you often and know you will do well.
We love you and as we keep saying "You've got this girl".
Love you,
