New Challenge

New Challenge Goal:

Take a picture of what I wear each and every day from now until the end of the semester and tell what I did that day.

 

I'm not sure after I finish this challenge I'm really gonna want to see some of the outfits (I have an interesting lack of style in my opinion) but hey. It's something interesting to blog about! 

The first day: August 22.2010 

Activity: Moving into College and Attending Cross Country Meeting

Pardon the style of the photo! (I managed to leave my full-length mirror at home. gah.)

So today I moved back to college! It's my 3rd year (whoa. Time's flying) and I am on the same floor and in the same room that I was in last spring. I live in Carpenter Hall here at Wesley and I’m up on the 3rd floor yet again this semester. This is my 5th Semester on a 3rd floor and after moving in my stuff today…..I vowed that it would be my last (unless I can’t get my single elsewhere on campus). 

Last night when I finally got home from the grandparents (we cut their grass and my grandfather helped me put together a bookcase) and running errands with the mom, I packed my clothes and unpacked my suitcase from Germany. I’d never unpacked my suitcase from Germany so that was the first thing I had to do. Once I got all my clothes packed, I hauled them down the stairs (mom helped me fold a bunch) and then my brothers helped me haul them out to the car that I had already loaded earlier in the evening.  

Some pictures of the loaded car:

The loaded back of the car! 

Me and the back of the car. The backseat before I re-arranged it this morning. 

Originally, Cross Country was suppose to move in on Saturday, August 21st so that we could have a team meeting the night before the rest of the upperclassmen moved back in but Wesley College decided we were not allowed to move into the dorms until today like the rest of the upperclassmen. So this morning (in order to beat the rush and beat the rain) we decdied to leave at about 7 am! I woke up at 5:45 a.m. and got myself ready and after waking mom up at 6:30, made coffee. We left about 7:15 and made it to Dover in about 2 hour.

I’m gonna skip talking about check-in and moving all my crap up 3 flights of stars because no one wants to read about how messed up Wesley Financial Aid is nor about the fact that it’s hotter than hell with the humidity while carrying stuff. 

I went out to eat for lunch with Ashley and her boyfriend Tim plus my mom before mom left and then I’ve been unpacking/decorating my room. It looks pretty good! I’m not done, I still have to put up my postcards and then I’ll be done!

Some pictures of the room:

I hope you guys enjoyed seeing these photos! :)

I’ll write more later after my cross country meeting about a challenge I’m giving myself! :)

My First Purple Email!

So today, I got my very first PURPLE Email. Everyone involved in the College Program knows that they come from Disney Recruiting and are super-exciting to get! =] 

 

It's basically just the interview tips but is still super exciting to get! In other news, many of my friends that have been participating in the Facebook Group for awhile now have had or are having their phone interviews in the past few days or today/tmrw. I wish all of them "Good Luck" and can't wait to hear about it. 

 

If you are interested in the college program....The link to two amazing websites are on the left of my posterous website :) 

Enjoying the journey :)

Hi Everyone! :) So applications came out yesterday. And my best friend from college called me saying "Applications are live! I'm working on the application now!". 

Now....normally, I would have been jumping and screaming and racing to my computer. Small problem. I was at the Wicomico Country Farm and Home Show (and spending the night at the farm where there is no internet). 

This was me after the phone call:

So, I got home around 3:30 today and jumped on my laptop! This was me waiting for my laptop to boot up to start working on the application! 

This was me during the application process (well, more like looking to see if I'd passed the web interview): 

And this was me after the whole thing was over and 

I had made it to the next step!:

My phone interview is on Monday at 11:30 :)

The start of the summer!

So..... Summer has officially begun just a few days ago. Luckly for me, my summer began way back on April 30th when my classes ended for the summer even though I had to go back to Wesley  for Graduation. This summer is jam-packed with things to do and I am having a blast. After things happen, I'll rewiew them here so you guys get to have fun with me! Ok, so that's an exxageration but whatever! 

May got kicked off with a bang, with graduation and bacalaurate. It was bittersweet to sing at graduation and bacalaurate because of our director leaving. He is going to be starting a doctorate degree at University of Maryland this fall. Singing for the last time under Emmon's direction left manuy of our choir crying due to the emotion. We were told that we were to recieve a new director this fall. Who knows...

After graduation, the next week I worked at a farm tour that is held each year for 3 days. It teaches over 2,500 kids about agriculture and how important it is in today's society. I covered this even pretty well in my blog earlier this month or during May.  I love being part of this tour and it's alot of fun with the teenagers that I work as teammates with. I'm gonna miss this event next spring if I'm on Florida.

The next weekend, I went to visit my best friend from freshman year of college. She lives in smithville, nj and they held their annual craft fair. It was awelsome to hang out with her and her family for the weekend. 

Later that month, I went to the movies to see "Letters to Juliet" with my best friends who I am know to be a part of. One of our teachers back in high school gave the 5 of us girls the nicname "the fab 5" and we've stuck to that. We go to 4 different colleges ranging from NC to DE to MD and 6 different majors. We are still as close as the day we all graduated (even though 2 of us graduated in 2008 and the other 3 of us graduated in 2009).
I worked with a local Ruritan club for a chicken BBQ on Memorial Day for the 19th year! It's been going on for 20 years and I have been helping since I was a year or so old. 

During June, my family and I went on vacation in Williamsburg, Virginia for a week. My friend Amanda came with my family on vacation and we had a blast! We went to Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Busch Gardens. At Busch Gardens they were having "Glory in the Gardens" and we got to see Francessca Ballintenta, Steven Curtis Chapman, and Building 429! I also helped my aunt last week because she had catarct surgery. I got to drive her around for 3 days. 

This past weekend, I went to my friend Ashley's house for the weekend. On Sunday we went to the "away" Phillies game at Citzens Bank Park which was amazing. Ashley and I both made Phanatics at the Build-a-Bear.  

So... That's what I've done so far this summer. Right now I'm cleaning my room because we have guests coming in in sat for the weekend. I don't have my laptop, so I might be a little hard to get up with right now :)

I can't wait to apply this fall :)
