Feels Like Home To Me...

This past week, was Formal Recruitment! It was truly a sight to behold! A campus full of sorority women and potential new members running around campus to classes, work, and stressing over the future! But of course, the stress was for nothing, we got a great group of women and the stress can move back to homework and projects and the semester ahead.

Weeks like these are my favorite! A week full of sisterhood! Spending time with my sisters, is always what the doctor ordered! Last week, was no different. The theme this year was "Home" or rather, Finding a Home in Alpha Gamma Delta. And what I realized, come the end of the week, last year I made the best decision of my life! And I did find my home. I feel like since joining last September, not only have I made great friends, but I've grown up. I'm so glad to not only be able to call these women friends, my best friends at that, but sisters as well! And I'm immensely more happy than I have been since graduating college. I thank God, for that!

The reasons women join sororities are plentiful. The reason I joined Alpha Gamma Delta, is that I wanted a home away from home and people I could count on. I was looking for the type of friendships you make growing up, the ones you leave behind in high school when you all separate for college. My sisters make me feel comfortable with being myself. I never feel alone or strange. They are always around and there for me when I need them. I've become not only a better, more responsible woman, but person. I'm depended on and it's something everyone should experience. It's hard to explain, but I'm immensely greatful!

College Football Saturday

Growing up, it was a given, that come Saturday morning, college football would be on the tv all day long! Big Ten was a given, and then whatever other games that were on. It became such a normal thing, something my sister and I would complain about. But we would sit there and do homework and just spend the day together.

Fastforward to my freshman year of college, 2010, and I was faced with a missing feeling... One day, I realized that it was College Football Saturday. Something I had taken for granted, that warm, fall feeling of being a part of something and cheering on your team! Cause honestly, it's completely unrealistic that a person could grow up in Southeast Ohio, and not to be a Buckeye fan! Not to mention a Big Ten fan! In Akron, people don't really care about football, like its there, don't get me wrong, but it's by no means an overwhelming feeling. Something you feel, come every Saturday. Something you look forward to, a way of feeling at home, while being miles away!

In two weeks, my mom, sister and I are all going to Bloomington, IN. We will be getting to one of the very things I've always wanted to do! We are going to an OSU football game! And to state the obvious, an Indiana football game! Two of my favorite Big Ten schools, are playing each other in one of the prettiest places I've ever been! And I couldn't be more excited! Not only am I crossing something off my College To-Do List (Go to a Big Ten football game!) but also I'm going to experience that family sensation in the flesh, with my family!

 
Go Hoosiers!
Go Bucks!
Happy Football Saturday!

College Boredom

If you haven't seen PSY's Gangnam Style, you are missing out! Make sure you watch. My roommate is obsessed with it, and so we decided to make a video! Hope you enjoy watching it, as much as we enjoyed making it!

Here's PSY's:

EH SEXY LADIES!

September Issue

So with the weather changing, and the September Issues of fashion magazines still on display, not to mention Joan Rivers' Fashion Police and Fashion Week coming near, my thoughts are completely consumed by the perfect fall wardrobe!
In my opinion:
Colors:
Neutrals: think Browns, Tans, Cream
White
Black
Mint
Neon
 
Shoes:
Boots
Flats
Sperrys
 
Leather jackets, Peplum shirts, skirts and dresses. Chambray. Leopard prints. I'm all about print pants! Not to mention, printed pants! Tons of scarves! Big oversized cable knit sweaters, blazers, and asymmetrical button ups. And of course bows! And I can't forget to mention lace!
 

















 
Fall has Fallen!

All Growed Up!

So I'm the first one to be completely uncomfortable by talks of the future and change. I hate when things change. Graduating was miserable, death- devastating. Losing touch with someone who I used to consider my best friend. I hate change and life is all about it! And I've finally made great advances in accepting it! I've come to terms with being a high school graduate, and that I can no longer go back. No matter how much I'd like to! And ever since this school year started the future has never seemed so near! Like usually the future with me having a career is an abstract thought. Now in my third year, I can see the finish line. And it's not a blur, but a completely real state. And that my friends, is completely terrifying! This year is a great testing subject! I'm in an apartment, paying Big People bills, working and going to school. All practice for later on, which surprisingly enough isn't all that scary. Progress!

Times are changing!

Akron, Take Three

So I finished up my first week  of junior year! It's shocking! This was a big week for me! I'm living in an apartment, I'm really on my own! The future has never seemed as near as it does now! And, BIG NEWS, i'm slowly but surely coming to terms with the fact that I'm a high school graduate, and there's really no going back!

So, while I've been preoccupied with getting to my class on time, I've never lived off campus before, buying my books, and getting ready for Formal Recruitment! Only a week away! Oh the excitement! For the past 2 years, I've been one side of the curtain of recruitment, and now I get to see all the smoke and mirrors, it's really strange. This whole year, so far, has been a new vantage point! I have a new roommate, a new location, new friends and new classes. And the finish line is now in sight! It's quite a distance away but I can see the slight glow!

Like high school's junior year, I feel more mature this year, and definitely more calm. My mom told me that my catch phrase was "It'll all work out!" And as summer comes to a close and I can sense the stressors of fall and school on the horizon, I find myself using it more and more! Much like when I was packing up to move to school. So I suppose only time will tell! Here's my first week  in pictures!

First weekend: Freshman Move In & Ice Cream Social

 
First Day:
 
 
 Second Day:

Junior year has started without any major hiccups! So let's hope it continues!
