Welcome Week

Well the drive up here was pretty good. Long, but it all worked out. Stayed with Ben the first night, then Tom and Jess the second night.

Welcome Week was quite the week. Partied non-stop all week.. definitely how a welcome week should be. Met all the neighbors, had a shit ton of fun, got pretty drunk every night, and Matt was here, which made it 100 times better :-) There's nothing quite like beer pong and slip n slide in the rain. A welcome week to remember for sure.

Classes officially started yesterday. Seem ok. Barely any exams, but a shit ton of projects and group projects. Good thing I have the same people in all of my classes, so we can all work together at one time and get it done. 18 credits is gonna be a killerrr. 2 finals so far, not too shabby.

RI this weekend.. or a day. Whatev. Should be good to see the cousins and gparents I guess. Although I could think of many other ways to spend my Labor Day weekend..

Thats about it.

Last few days...

Quantico was quite the trip. The ceremony was awesome!! Unlike anything you've ever seen before. The precision and how in-sync they all were when they marched during the parade was incredible. Took tons of pics! The actual graduation ceremony was sweet too. The second highest ranked General in the Marines gave the speech. Afterwords he shook all their hands, Nick was the first one, front row, and he looked like he was star-struck. Haha. So yeah, now he's a 2nd Lt and pretty damn excited about it.

Went out with old friends a few days ago. Dinner and the bar, just like old times. Good talks, good drinks, and good times.

Leaving in 2 days for MI. I'm pumped. Actually, I'm really excited to spend some quality time with Matt.. 3 days in a car.. what could be a better test to a relationship? Haha. Also just as excited to see everyone again and move in to our new (old) house! Wahooo! Saturday couldn't come quick enough.

Last few weeks...

I love not having an actual schedule that I have to stick to. I was planning on staying in Waco only till Sunday, and ended up staying until Wednesday. I just didn't want to go home. Never saw the point of sitting around my house by myself when I could be wasting time with the boy and his friends, actually having a social life for the few remaining days of summer vacation. It was quite the vacation indeed. BBQs, cheap 50 cent movies, partying, cajun food, Worms, just some good ol' fashioned relaxation. Great way to end the summer.

Leaving tomorrow for Virginia to see Nick graduate from OCS. It's wild, really, cuz as much as I want to think he's going to be the same old Nick, he's probably going to be completely different. So after 10 weeks of training and 10 pounds added on to him, I'm looking forward to seeing him again.

After I get back from VA, its on to packing, then leaving for MI next Saturday with Matt. Crazy.

Where did the summer go?
