Awwww... prepare for some ultimate cuteness! Love ya, V!

GRASSHOPPER!

 

This little beastie was outside our OPEN SCREENLESS window this afternoon! EEK!

Rain!

Just back from walking 15 minutes to CVS and 15 minutes back in the rain! Quite the trio we make!

Had to post this picture... a few nights ago we broke out the mugs and had a tea party! I'm so grateful for this group of girls and the great times we enjoy... whether it's hiding in the closet, exploring, running through thunderstorms, watching Mary Poppins, playing Go Fish, sharing cookies, doing homework, or whatever new adventure we're having together! (Yes, homework is an adventure!) 

I visited a great congregation in Antioch today, and I met Hannah Grieving's grandparents, which was really neat. So few  people come from RI that whenever I say it's where I'm from folks immediately ask if I know the Antayas, or the Robsons, or the Reeves, or Miss Donna Polk, or whomever! It's a nice conversation starter. :) 

Nicati and Sharon and I are walking to CVS at 2, then we have evening service around 5. Antioch is having a song service, and the church at Brandon is having a lesson on marriage. And I quote: "You should come to Brandon! They're having a special lesson on marriage! It's kinda weird, but everyone's going!" (Insert smirk.)

Textbooks = 150lbs or so.

SO EXCITED! I just bought my textbooks and I can hardly wait to start classes tomorrow! We're not supposed to open the shrinkwrap until our professors confirm that we will be using the books, or otherwise I would definitely be getting a head start! At 1:45 I have to reserve my chapel seat, at 2pm I have a adviser appointment with Mrs. Barlar, and at 3pm I'll go to Puckett for the on-campus job meeting. Oh, and I finished my Liberal Arts Essay. It took about two hours, complete with research, but I really enjoyed writing it. Sometime today I want to go use one of the music practice rooms and have a good long time spent playing! I need to brush up on my theory too.... although that reminds me...  I passed both of those placement tests and am now officially enrolled in Music Theory 1 and Aural Theory 1. Folks say that theory is one of the hardest classes on campus.... I don't know about that, but we shall see. I'm determined to conquer it as best I can!

It feels so good to be rested again. I slept until 8:45 this morning and it was sooooo nice. I'm glad Orientation is over. Last night some of us Suttonites had a midnight tea party. Bringing a kettle was a good idea, I guess! It was really fun, although we all started getting a little crazy due to such little sleep!
