And So It Begins

August 24 - The first day and my roomie is already pooped! I love her though!

New Books!!

August 23 - New books for a new semester. I've never been more excited for school. Compare these books to the ones I had in the Spring semester, and you'll see why! I get to spend my whole year studying the Sciptures! Sweet beans!

A Work in Progress

August 22 - Room decoration... continued and unfinished. This is a tree, or, it will be a tree when it's done.

A Journey Begins

August 20 - These stairs kind of remind me of a journey, at the bottom you can't quite see what's at the top, and when you set out on a journey, you're never quite sure where you'll end up, but it's sure to be beautiful along the way. College life... here I come.

Paper Cranes Invade Walker B8

August 19 - Room decoration continues with a very lot of paper cranes strung from the ceiling. This one's name is Humphrey. He lives in the corner above my desk.

Beatrice the Betta

August 17 - So I missed a few days here while I was staying at a friends house here in SC, but I wanted to introduce Beatrice, my adopted betta fish. She came all the way from New York with me!

On the road

August 14 - In which I arrive in South Carolina! And in which I find these glasses in a Cracker Barrel store and force my mother to let me take a picture of us wearing them.

August 13

Goodbye Joseph. Today was the last day and possibly one of the more depressing days of my life. I had to say goodbye to my "fake" family comprised of the summer youth theater staff as well as all my Family Life friends and I had to say goodbye to my sister and little brother. *sigh*

August 12

So I missed a day or two in here... but had I taken pictures they probably would have looked very similar to this... small children on a stage dancing. That's pretty much been my life this week. But it's good, really good.

Howard Community Days

July 31 - This is Maria at Howard Community Days; where they throw cheese out of firetrucks during the parade as well as candy. And where the entire parade consisted of driving the volunteer fire department equipment down the main road along with an extraneous tractor and a couple four wheelers. Ah, there's no place like Howard.
