Fantastic Weekend-to-Be

So, this is going to be a great weekend. Correction: this is going to be an EPIC weekend. My boyfriend and my cousin are here to see me, and I am still so excited. They're taking a nap right now (it really is a long drive), so I'm just doing some "internet-ing". Tomorrow, we're going shooting, going to dinner with some of our friends, and possibly hitting up the Landing. Once again, I am SO stinkin' excited!

Snowmegeddon!

Sorry it's been so long since my last post, I'm definitely not the most consistent blogger. Well, I'm not a very good blogger. Not a very regular one, anyway. This semester feels like it's been extremely long already. So far I've rushed Sigma Kappa (didn't get the bid-trying again in the fall), started teaching for String Project again, rearranged my dorm room, reconnected with some people, went to the MMEA conference at Tan-Tar-A, and now I have two snow days in a row!

It kind of feels like I don't even have time to breathe, but I'm getting used to it. I am pretty excited for a few things that are happening this semester, though. Some of the girls from High Street are doing a freshman girls Bible study, and I'm pretty excited about that. I'm also looking forward to hopefully getting a full semester of violin in. And even better, Mitch and I have worked something out to where we see each other twice a month. I'll be coming home once a month, and he'll be coming down here once a month. He came down to the lake this past weekend so we could see each other, and then he'll be coming down for Valentine's weekend (aka the weekend before. Who's idea was is to put it on a Monday?). I'm really excited to be seeing him more often. Here's a picture from when I was home last month: 


We went ice skating, had a fun dinner at a Hibachi restaurant in St. Peters, and just had a good time overall. Did I mention that we went ice skating? (It's one of my favorite winter-time activities.)

I'm also excited for the next time I'll be home, because that's the Daytona party! It'll be my second one, and I'm definitely looking forward to it. Watching the race, spending time with the Satterfields, just hanging out-what could be better than that?

I'm also pretty happy, because I got to Skype with one of my best friends (Kaitlyn) two weeks ago. Definitely a high point for me. She is so beautiful, and I miss her oh-so-much.

I know this is full of random stuff, but my music box collection is growing! Kaylee and I went to the flea market last week, and I found a bunch of them! Don't worry though, I only bought one. It's so nifty, though! Kind of related to this, I am so thankful for Kaylee. It's nice having someone I know that I can try to do fun stuff with whenever she's in town.

Well, I have a snowball fight to get ready for, but I'll update this again soon!
