Tales of a Georgetown Freshman!: Whoa, it's November the 8th.

I still don't understand how time flies by so fast here. I literally feel like yesterday it was August 19th, a.k.a. move-in day, when Lizza and I were having trouble fitting all of our/my stuff into what was then known as just room 138. It's not just room 138 now though, it's our "home" in every sense of the word. I've grown quite attached to Knight Hall and the people in it, and my life has been forever changed by them even though it's only been three months.That's one of the things I love most about Georgetown. I feel like I'm at home here. I love that no matter where I go, I'm going to see someone I know, or even someone I don't know, that will smile or wave at me. If I'm having a bad day, I almost always end up passing by Georgia Wartman, Allie Englert, or Betsie Phillips somewhere on campus, and they never fail to make my day somewhat better. This is why YOU should come here--to find you own Georgia, Will, Allie, Betsie, Tasha, Jerrica, Mason, Drew, Ashley, Lindsay and Lizza. I highly, really highly, doubt that you can find that many special people anywhere else. I love all of you guys, and I'm so thankful you're a part of my life :).

This past weekend was probably my busiest yet, because my homework load was pretty heavy. I had essays to write, a project to do, a performance to prepare for, and sleep to catch up on. I got most of it done, minus the sleep :P. After Wednesday of this week, after my performance of Wuthering Heights is over, I'll be able to breath a little easier and relax.

On Friday and Saturday night, I stepped away from my homework to go support Lizza at her first two basketball games of the season. She got to start the second game, and I was so proud! Yay Lizza! Our girls also won both games :). Goooo Tigers!! After Lizza's game on Saturday, we both worked on homework... for wayyyy too long, and I mean way to long. We decided to take a break from being responsible college students, and went to the UK hockey game to watch her brother play. The game didn't even start until midnight, so needless to say we didn't last through the entirety of it because our brains started to shut down, and I kept seeing zzZZzzzZZzz's everywhere. Overall I had a very productive, but fun, weekend, which is an accomplishment in my book.

This weekend I'll be nerding it up again as some of my fellow alumni and I travel to Indianapolis to support our favorite marching band at the Bands of America Grand Nationals competition :). I'm SOOOOOOOOOO excited! My little brother won his first state championship two weekends ago, and I was so proud. All I could do was cry! I know great things are going to happen again this weekend when they perform in the Colts' stadium. I can just feel it! I love you, Adair Band. Go kick brass, and bring back another Class A National Championship trophy, why dontcha? A special shout out to my brother, Kyle, and the drumline. Good luck, guys!

XOXO, K

PS- Don't forget to support me and my fellow English majors as we continue writing our novel :). Yay PMS, errrm, Project Moon Shoes, I mean.

Kyle, Mom, Me and baby Brandon at State Finals!
