A New Semester, A Fresh Start

THIS IS MY 101th POST! YOU'RE WELCOME!
 








Well, as I sit in between classes I thought I'd give un update. To begin January was an absolute mess, but a good mess if that. My family and I had so much going on it was kind of a blur let's lay out the month in bullet points k!

January
  • January 1: New Years Day. Lots of Mimosas. Kind of a blur.
  • January 3: Met with my advisor for the spring semester! On the right track! Bear Down!
  • January 4:My Mom's 50th birthday party. Lots of fun. I think I stole the microphone from the band and made a speech. Lots of Corona Light also kind of a blur.
  • January 5: Celebrated my buddy John's birthday with a party at his house.
  • January 8: Bought my textbooks. Broke.

Kristin makes the best signs!

My fav shot



As valentine's day approaches I realize that I am single, very, very, single.

Haha.


But on a side note. I could not be more proud of my sister and her commitee! Not only is she working full time and  pregnant, she managed to pull off another successful Mardi Gras Party teamed with The Community Food Bank! This party is designed to raise money and awareness of how hunger effects our community. No word on the Dollar amount raised but last year totaled around $100,000.00!

Way to go!



Hope life is beautiful wherever you are!
