First off, in January I took a trip to Arizona for the study abroad program here on campus. This trip changed my outlook on life. Not only did we site see and walk probably 1000 miles (just kidding, but it felt like it!) I spent 5 days in a title 1 school with the most amazing 3rd graders ever and they have changed my life. Not only is this school a title 1 school but it is also located in the "projects" of Phoenix so these children come from very diverse backgrounds and very diverse classes in society. Many of them took home bags of food every Friday provided by the school. This was a great experience for me and I loved every minute of it. I cannot wait for Jan. 2014 where I will be spending a few days in San Antonio, TX! Yay!
On Valentine's day this year, my best friend proposed to me and I said YES! I could not be happier. We are so excited for our wedding and cannot wait to be together forever. We have been wedding planning like crazy even though our date isn't until October 2015. Two days after our engagement was our 3 year anniversary. That month will forever stand out in my mind and even though I think Valentine's day is overrated, I will always remember that one.
As for those of you who are wondering, yes, he proposed with a pizza. For those of you wondering what my ring looks like, here you go :)
It's kind of blurry, I know, but that's the best picture I have of it for now.
As the end of the semester is coming to an end I'm starting to say goodbye to some of my friends and preparing for final exams. In 11 days I start work at Dick's again...oh joy. As for the summer, I cannot wait, but I am not ready to be a senior. Life is going by way too fast.
As for all of you, thanks for reading and I hope you are all healthy and enjoying the nice weather!
-XOXO
