Hi everyone! I'm in Ireland, yay! Soo, I had a good trip over. In general I wasn't nearly as nervous as I thought I'd be. The only time I was really nervous was going through security and getting settled onto the airplane. And by the way, Aer Lingus is super strict about having everything stowed away. They wouldn't even let me hold my sweatshirt. ( Read more... )

Wow, I'm going to Ireland in 6 days!! 6 DAYS! I started getting nervous when I began packing, but honestly, now I'm just incredibly excited. I think what did it was sleeping over at Jenna's. We watched old videos of us when we were kids (hilarious by the way), and I found that really calming. I was getting more nervous about the whole social aspect ( Read more... )

I'm going to IRELAND!!!! Second time's the charm I guess. And while I'm there, Jess and Harold will be in London. Its gunna be fun times, heehee. Its still sinking in...what a wonderful feeling :) I'm pretty sure I leave Jan 3rd, sooo there better be plenty of movie fests before that! And of course New Years with Ann!!! Can't wait!

As most of your already know, I didn't get into the Glasgow School of Art. Apparently the competition, at least for the photography program, was incredibly high this time, and not only did Glasgow not bother to warn anyone at Wheaton about that, but they also didn't tell me their decision until about a week ago. When I first found out, it was such ( Read more... )

For one thing, Mell and I are done with Arts of East Asia forever and ever!! YAY ( Read more... )

Wow, this was by far the best day of my entire time at Wheaton! Why? Because I have FINALLY found a really great group of friends. That's not to say the friends I already had aren't great, but you know what I mean. This is the first time I've really felt like I have a good group of friends like in high school, except now its in college. And how did ( Read more... )

So I'm almost 20. A year ago, turning 20 seemed pretty scary, but now, not so much. In fact, I'm surprisingly excited about it. As I told Ann, I'm kind of done being a teenager. I've felt like I've been in a transitional period since college started, and I'm ready to be on the farther end of that. Transfering to Wheaton has helped tremedously, and ( Read more... )

I GET TO MOVE!!!! AND I EVEN GET TO MOVE TO WELLNESS!!! Not the dorm Mell and everyone is in, but that's ok. Finally, I feel like I can breath again and everything is working out! :) :)

This has been an interesting week. I completed my photo porfolio, which I have to say I'm very pleased with. I got accepted to be an art major too :) That's a huge relief! The other thing that happened this week...I got my first bouquet of flowers from a guy. A dozen roses no less. But they're from a guy I don't like in that way. He's just not my ( Read more... )

So its a Saturday night and I'm here in my room, by myself. I really need to try to fix that. I mean, its ok once and a while, but it happens with me more than it should. But don't get me wrong, I am making some wonderful friends here. This is part of why I really want to move to Young. Its just hard when everyone else is there together, and then I ( Read more... )
