ADG Formal

I love ADG. I really do. Those boys are just wonderful and absolutely hilarious. They're such fun and it's always a party with them. The formal was a blast! Californio's (in Westport) was smaller I think then anyone expected it to be but once they moved the tables after dinner, it was pretty much the perfect amount of space for the size of the group. I don't know about everyone else, though it seemed like people were having a good time, but Gabe and I just had so much fun. We may have looked ridiculous dancing all over (we aren't exactly graceful), but to me, nothing beats dancing with him. We just don't care what other people might think about it, we just follow the music...most of the time:)



The food was alright. The salad was delicious, everything else was just okay. It seemed to be more appetizers than dinner. But that's okay, the bar was decent and the rest of the night made it all great.

So Much!

School is getting to be a lot. There's just so much to do and not enough time to do it. I think I may have written about this before a bit, but I can't really recall. I'm having more and more moments of stressing out. So many papers, so many meetings, so much! But I'll get through it. Christ is my strength, He'll get me through this...I know He will! AH!

Love and prayers...and peace

Spring!

I do so love springtime. The flowers, everything green and blooming, the thunderstorms, the first days that you just can't be inside any longer. Rockhurst is so wonderful in the spring. Though, I could go without all the worms covering the all of the sidewalks. Gross. Anyway...I love talking professors into having class outside on the quad, and playing frisbee, dancing in the rain, and just basking in the sunlight. Gabe and I went to the park and we played some frisbee, but for the most part we just laid in the sunshine and talked. It was so nice to wear shorts and still be hot. I've missed warmth this past winter.

At the park!

It's so nice to be able to just stroll around Rockhurst, especially at night. It's such a beautiful little campus. I'm just really loving the warm weather right now. It's wonderful.

Tree Planting

Voices for Justice had a tree planting service project that I helped out with through APO. It was a lot of fun. I love planting things in the earth, getting my hands dirty...though I could do without the worms and grubs. It made me feel like I was back in New Orleans for my service project or something.

I do miss New Orleans.

Easter!

He is risen! Alleluia!

I love Easter. I love the eggs and the candy and brunch with the Farleys and dinner and drinks with the Brauns. I love being with my family, I love getting dressed up, and I love reminiscing with my cousins about when we were little. I know that's not what it's about though, and that's what I love most. Christ died to save us and he rose from the dead. He made salvation possible. He made it so that we can be with Him in eternity. He makes my heart burn and tears fall from my eyes because of the immensity of his love. I love Easter.

This Easter, though, had another reason to be so special to me. It was also Gabe and my six month mark. Six months seems like such a long time at moments, but then again, it's no time at all. Our faith is so important to us, it's a huge part of our relationship, I guess that's why I found it so cool that this mark fell on Easter Sunday. Maybe I'm just a dork:)

Busy Busy Busy

This semester has been so crazy. I feel like I never get the chance to sit down anymore. It's been good though, I've somehow enjoyed it. I do like being busy. Of course, I thoroughly enjoy having nothing to do, but if I'm busy, I'm productive. Productivity always gives one a good feeling:)

My eight week night class ended after spring break so I have Monday nights free, but other than that, my nights are filled with meetings. I miss getting to watch my shows, like Glee and Bones, but I love my CLCs, Hawks for Life, and APO, so it's fine. The afternoon is usually my free time, unfortunately I've been tending to fill that time with trash tv like Millionaire Matchmaker and Real Housewives. But I do homework while I watch...that makes it okay, right?
