The Start...

Well folks, I have been back in class for 2 weeks now. I now that I have a good idea of what we are doing, I want to share it with you!

Residential II: The first day of class, we have a color consultation for a couple in Asheboro. We gave them our choices that Thursday. We then have received our first big project. We are doing a renovation for a couple that is getting married. They are renovating his family home, and she is bringing some of her pieces into the mix. So, we have a big project ahead of us! That is all for Residential so far.

Commercial II: Our first major project is a competition for GODIVA! Yes, that’s right, I said GODIVA!!!!!!!!! And it’s a competition, so there may be prizes if we win. By we, I mean Misty, Alex and me are in a group together. And so far, things have been great! So, wish us luck!

Those are the main classes. My online classes are History of Interiors II, Textiles, and Math 140. So, we will see how everything goes! Wish us all luck!

I HATE Goodbye...

So, as of this coming Friday, 2 of my close friends will be gone off to school. The last leaves next Tuesday. It hadn't really hit me until tonight. MacKenzie left last Sunday, and Josh is leaving Friday, Rebekah leaves Tuesday. I wish there was a great song to insert here...but sadly, there aren't any I can think of. Shelby is in her Senior year of high school, so I still have her, but I'm now depressed. 

Tonight Josh, Bekah, Shelby, and I got together to say goodbyes. We made our usual cupcakes, and watched a movie. When the goodbyes came, I will say that it was hard not to burst into tears. But on the way home, it hit me. I felt like sharing this with ya'll, it is a relief to get it off my chest. Thanks for listening!

Around the Corner...

Well folks, I start back to school on Tuesday. I have really enjoyed my break, I don't want it to end. :(

While on my break, I had some realizations...

1.  This school year, I'm focusing on me! Getting to my "Happy Place" in my life. And, I'm very excited about it!

 2. I created my "Buried Life List". Have you seen the show on MTV called "The Buried Life"? Well, it is a show about 4 guys tackling the things on their list to do before they die. Along the way, they help someone accomplish something on their own list. Like, help someone find their mom who gave them up for adoption, etc... So I created my list. It is still in the works, but when I feel good that I have not skipped anything, I will post it.

3. I love my friends! I know I should anyway, but seriously! They have gotten me through things, and calmed me down. Thanks for listening guys!!!!! I love ya'll!

4. I have realized my love of vintage and antique items! For instance, I have a ring that I got when my Great Aunt Vera passed away. It has a large yellow stone, and a solid gold band. It is unique, and I'm proud to wear it! It has sparked an interest in vintage furniture and antique pieces! 

5. I have developed an even greater passion for travel. During the past 2 weeks, I would've loved to get out of town for even the weekend! Just to spice things up!

6. I have a great relationship with sleep! We weren't the best of friends during school, but we have rekindled our relationship over that past 2 weeks! 

I think that is it for now! I'm excited about school, because I graduate in May (!), and the routine is nice; but yet, I enjoy my time alone (not in the car on the way to and from school), with peace and quiet. NO stress! Well, we gotta move on with life! We only get 1, so make it count!! Have a great week, and to those who are starting school as well...Good Luck!!!! 

BREAK!!!!!!!!!

AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M FINALLY ON BREAK!!!!! Well, now break is half over, sadly...But any-who, I have been enjoying my time off!  I have watched movies, caught up on much needed sleep, and hung out with my friends! 

The first friend outing was with my best friend MacKenzie! We went out for my birthday, we were a little late, but she was out of town on my birthday, but we made up for it with our traditional dinner and movie! We ate at her family's restaurant, Crossroads Family Restaurant, had a great time catching up. The we proceeded to the movies, where we watched the latest Twilight Saga installment, Eclipse. And, may I say, that this movie, I think was the better of the three. 

The latest outing was today! My other best and I went out to the Bog & Tanger Family Gardens in Greensboro. It was hot and humid, but we had a great time talking, and hanging out! We went to lunch, and went to a cafe for some desert, and did a little window shopping at Friendly Center! 

It is wonderful hanging out with friends you haven't seen for weeks! But, I will say, now that I am on break, I don't know what to do with myself!!!!! But, I guess it is a good thing sometimes, to not have anything to do!!
