Yet another blog post written while at the airport.
I laugh at the fact that 2 of my past 3 posts have been written at an
airport, but honestly, it kind of makes sense. It’s a really good way to kill
time but yet be productive and get a blog post done.
Seeing as it’s Spring Break and the end of A quad, I bet you
can predict what this blog post is going to be about… That’s right, a
reflection of the past 8 weeks since second semester began. Life goes by so
incredibly quickly, so I really enjoy and appreciate taking time to stop and
think about the quad and some highlights. So here we go:
- Very first morning back, Amy and I went to Eggletic for
breakfast since Saga was still closed
- Over night RA retreat
- Being reunited with 3South. Have I mentioned that I love
my floor? ;)
- Making the decision to switch to elementary education with
a Spanish concentration. This was a big decision and there were many factors
that pushed me to make this decision. But I’m excited about it. And this means
that I’m gonna be on campus next semester!
- Surprise birthday party thrown by Grace and Stine. I
honestly have the best friends ever. I never saw it coming. They’re sneaky ;)
- Watching the Seahawks/49ers championship game with Beth, a
freshmen on my floor who is a huge 49ers fan…and the Seahawks winning
- Surviving sub zero temperatures. Especially that fire alarm
on the -28˚ wind chill night.
- Erika’s (friend from high school) visit
- Local Natives concert with Erika
- Seahawks winning the Superbowl (even though it was a
horrible game to watch)
- Valentine’s Day date night with Gwen at Chick-fil-a
- Chick flick night with 3South on Valentine’s Day. Leap
Year and cookies and cream ice cream. Yes please.
- 3S/E Pinterest Party/movie night #topfloorbestfloor (even
if we did set off the fire alarm at 1:30 in the morning)
- Chick flick night with my fellow 3Southers that didn’t go
to Prez Ball (do you sense a theme of that weekend? Chick flicks for dayzz)
- Figuring out housing for next year. This is the first time
I’ve actually had to think about who to live with/where I want to live… And I
am blessed that it was not stressful at all and that I get to live with
3 of my favorite people.
- My last two loud raids. We raided with Avengers, T4 raided
with Twilight (which was actually really good and absolutely hilarious)
- Our short-lived rivalry with 2East. They stole the garden
gnome I had as decoration in my lounge towards the beginning of the semester. I
found out shortly after, but kept forgetting to steal it back… Plus it weighs
like 70 lbs so I didn’t really want to carry it back up to 3South… But we
eventually got a ransom note demanding peanut butter and nutella. Long story
short, we stole some of their stuff, they returned the gnome, we returned their
stuff. My girls were sad it ended so quickly.
- Air Jam. The Smaber RAs (aka Smabe City) performed Blow by
Ke$ha. We got 3rd, nbd. Despite my hate for dancing in public and
performing while sick with a nasty cold, I still enjoyed it.
And there you have it. Spring 2014 A quad. And now I’m off
to South Dakota for the week to visit my brother. And when I come back, I’ll
have my final quad as an RA. I could go into all my feelings about how fast
this year has gone and how I don’t want this year to end and how much I’m going
to miss ResLife… but I won’t right now. I’m excited for this break, I’m excited
to relax and hang with Ben for the last time before he’s married (what?!?!), I’m
excited for my last quad and to live it up. LET’S GOOOO!
