First Football Game

you know i have to say, ive been pretty moody this week. theres been times where i feel like im doing ok here and then times where i feel like i havent made enough friends. tonight at the football game i felt a little like an outcast or a 3rd wheel. after my roommate left i decided to stay by myself at the game so i could be encouraged to find new friends, i had no one to sit with. luckly my best friend called and informed me i was crazy to be sitting there alone and to find someone. SO... i got up off my ass and went searching for some new friends. and AH HA! within my first 30 seconds of the search i found some pretty lovely people to finish the game with. go figure. so let me break it down with some pictures like i always do...


LOOK!! WESTERN HAS THE BALL AND IS WINNING!....yes i took a picture so i can remember it actually did happen.

cute pic of the couple again just chillin at the game

another sad attempt of taking a good picture of the mountains from behind the field. actually with adobe i bet i could make this one look pretty cool

so after ash left i spotted this chick and recognized her from my hall, her name is Emily. She's pretty crazy!

YEP. lol....shes pretty funny too

and this is the new gang hopefully. well atleast a new set of numbers in my phone, emily, shannon, and the lovely beth who is in my theater class and loves musicals so now i finally have someone to watch those with up here!

yes its burly..and no i dont care u know why? WE WOOONNNNN!!! 38 TO NOTHING!! YEEEEAA! .. i had to document it for all you non believers out there that we didnt lose.

Beth is pretty sweet, i hung out with her and Shannon in their room for a few hours just watchin youtube. here is one of their favorite videos...MOM u will like this one!!

actually i found out people on their floor are very friendly and apparently the people on my floor dont have that reputation. we sat in the room and about 2 or 3 girls just walked in to see what we were doing. this girl was real cute..i wiiish i could remember her name haha...but i will learn soon.

so needless to say this is a good start for me, im finally finding other peopel to hang out with besides always tagging along with ashley. dont get me wrong, love the girl just need to spread out a bit and find a few other people, Emily wants me to try the rock wall with her...and im sure you will see how that goes...

COMING HOME TOMORROW. as you can see i got a little home sick..... instead of listening to my university experience teacher on "how to manage time" i doodled my house.

....and rachel and lindsays house.

time for a visit!!!

COMING HOME FOR THE WEEKEND!!

get pumped.

i love you all!

What I've Been Up To

for rachel and lindsay back at home haha.

















So lately ive been getting a feeling like i miss home a tad. trying to keep myself busy and not focus on missing you people so much has been exhausting. Meeting new people, very slowly, and walking up all these damn mountains. exercising and all, its been good i mean im doing quite alright up here at the WHEE. other then this lacking of activity this weekend. got white water wrafting coming up sept 7 i want to give a try and a hiking and waterfall tour im looking forward to. anyways heres what ive been up to.




got take out from dodson and the boxs looks pretty familiar yet the food not suprisingly as good. KRISTOPHERS I NEED YOU!! MOM I DONT CARE FEED ME CHICKEN!! ahhhh. actually foods not to bad here.

see what i mean this girl is EXSTATIC about her hamburger.

hmmm and she is excited about her spghetti. i put these on here because only the girls at home would find something this stupid amusing having these pictures hang in the cafeteria. cj and ash did not but i laughed pretty hard.

yep. she came, helped me locate the car eventually and park it legally

this is the guy next to me's license plate. incase he dents my amazing new car and makes me go back to the blue monster i used to drive.

yea GG wanted to see the band. sorry to report i wasnt impressed but it was practice what do u expect?

the old gang, not much has changed i dont think between all of them...other than the absence of a certain bomb dropping terrorist.

ahh yes. the mountains. i know mom i made u proud, this is a great shot with the street lights in it.

during my last few work outs i have been wearing earrings which i think is to blame for this. yes folks my ear is infecting and im officially an idiot for letting it happen. dont worry i bought some peroxide. yes all on my own, i really am growing up.

and the ridculiously tall rock wall i have yet to try, thats not the whole thing it goes further up but we were walking at the time. a whole 60 feet. ill try it at some point.

ash flexin for the camera, lookin pretty goooood haha

the little scrub back at home, for some reason pointing to her teeth, looks like shes trying to whistle. i miss you kylie!

actually i miss everyone, a lot. i like my roomate and cj and my classes. the gym is great, food aint bad and im not fatting up anytime soon. but i miss my family and friends, coming home in 5 days i love you guys!!

A New Begining

So things have been the same most of my life and now it was time for a change. im 18 and i had to leave the house and start my own life and do things for myself up here in the Whee. Colowhee that is. if thats even spelled right. whatever not the point. anyways i start classes tomorrow and i thought i would take a few pictures of my side of the dorm and how everything is going over here in the WHEEEEE!! haha. ok.

the door...i got a little camera happy. Ashley is my awesome roommate as you see on the door, but you will meet her a little further down the page.

THE VIEW. as you walk in. i know i know....its breathtaking. you dont have to say it.

my desk...as orginized as it may ever get.

A close up for my mom and dad because they are old and blind.

the closet....yep.... had nowhere to put my 60 t shirts my sister insisted on me bringing....wait whats my NSYNC pillow doing in there? i just noticed. that needs to be on display.

pretty much just the shot of what i have over my bed, minis the western hat i added up there today.

My secret stash of my one true addiction.

the other secret stash. thats only half of the collection.

Our sweet set up, and my foot.... i did that on purpose, my toe nail polish looks good.
