So, I think I have found a solution to my sorority problem. I talked to the right people about my situation. I haven’t made a decision yet but I am closer. When I went to standards to talk to the president, financial advisor, and and standards committee, we were able to discuss more options. (more…)
First let me start by saying that spring break was way fun. I went to Paris with my mom, step-dad, step-brother, his girlfriend, my beloved little brother, and my best friend Meredith! We all stayed in a condo right off of the Arch de Triumph. We were only there for about 5 days, so I was bummed that we didn’t get to do everything we wanted to. But we did do a lot. (more…)
What a FANTASTIC day, especially for a Monday. I got up, dog-tired, went to class and was done by 11. The teacher in my first class woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, but what can you do. By the time class was done, the sun was shining, it was a beautiful 72 degrees, and not a cloud in the sky. I spent the entire day outside!! It was amazing. This is the first warm beautiful day in Oxford, Mississippi in what seems to be forever! (more…)

Only a month into the semester and I feel like I’ve been in school for way more. So far I have all A’s in my classes. My goal is to keep up my grades and pull a 4.0. This is a high expectation but I think I can do it. I am more motivated this semester because I am in classes I actually like. I’m taking EDRD (education reading), Math, English, and Theatre.
Christmas Break was fantastic! I got to see my little brother, who is really starting to grow up. I went to Crested Butte, Colorado to go skiing with my family. We met up with another family, The Jordan’s, who we have been skiing with every year for the past 12 years or so. It was a lot of fun. My brother, Zachary, went down his first black slope (one of the hardest) this year. He did so well! I was very proud of him. (more…)
Last weekend was soo fun! Friday was my formal, which I didn’t get to go to because it was Wilson’s hockey game. Wilson and I are getting a little more serious. We’ve been hanging out a lot lately, and I wanted to take him to formal but he had a game, so I decided to go to his game instead. Where I met his whole family! (more…)
I am soo excited. This year aoii held its first annual strike out arthritis event. It was so fun. It was the first year, so not as many people showed up as we expected. I was on the committee. My job was to organize all the food for roughly 600 people! I went through Apple Bee’s and got pulled pork, coleslaw, and baked beans for a pretty good price. But then I got plates, plasticware, and rolls thrown in! I really liked doing that job. We sold tickets. One ticket got a plate of food then you could buy another plate for $5. Then we also had some concessions that you could buy like oreos, cookies, gushers, the good stuff. You wouldn’t expect anything less from AOII! (more…)
You might say there are many things that are unpleasant about going 10 hours away from home. Really, there is only one thing. No, its not that its hard to get home, or that your so far away from your family, or the fact that you might be nervous because your out of your comfort zone. No, these things are good. (more…)
What a great weekend! 
Lately though, I have been feeling lonely here at school. And I have talked with a number of friends at other schools and they have all said the same thing. My theory is that Sophomore year in college pretty much every one goes through a re-evaluation of everything, friends, major, friends. (more…)
Well… again it’s been a while. Not as long as last time though. I was reading through my other blog and I realized that I was so tired, there were so many grammatical errors. But last week was super low key. I didn’t have much to do. Oh! (more…)
