Lake part 2, The creatures.

While we were there we saw lots of wild life, squirrel, fish, ants, gnats, but no gators :(  So I took some pictures.

And YES. They are ALL creatures. Haha.

Let's go to the lake!!!

Today is Saturday, hence, the boredom and the decision to journey to a lake. We had fun!  Starting out, our plan was to walk across the highway to the lake that was on the other side, but when we did, we discovered that there was no where to hang out because of all the private property and swamps. Who wants to hang out in a swamp when a Lake-Placid-sized creature could be lurking in the murky waters??? Not me.  That's when we turned around and walked back to get Amber's car so we could drive to an actual park that had a dock and everything right on this big lake.  We all piled in the car and headed there, took a few wrong turns, but thankfully Liz got us there, and Amber didn't kill us. (No offense, girl ;-) ) We got out and the girls sat on the bench while Matt and Brian played with the Frisbee.  They were attempting some pretty tricky throws and epically failed many times. lol. Brian and I took a walk down to the dock hoping to see some gators, but no luck, just a really bad jet skier.... not that I could have even attempted to be better. There is no way I would even get in the water! Anyway, here is some pics of our day:

Loverly scenery :) (Thanks Brad)

I think he was pretending to... um.... well.... I'm actually not sure. Haha

Heck yeah to action shots!!! Same with Brian's on the bottim right.  Haha,

So... hmmm. has anyone else noticed that I pretty much start every post with "So" haha. I am LAME.  Anyway, college life is rather appealing to me.  I have freedoms that I never had at home unlike a lot of other kids.  I love the freedom of being able to just leave whenever I want and just chill with Jesus, and explore His amazing creations.  I am just loving it here.  I love my roomies :) I have been getting to know them each better and better.  I have also made several new friends.  (It's Facebook Official)

The lovely Amber,

Liz is on the left, Alyssa is on the right.

This is Josh. He likes Josh Groban, TOO!! :D

This would be Matt, the roommate of Josh's

And my man, Brian

I have several people who I have befriended as well as these wonderful people, i just haven't had the guts to take pictures of them yet!! Haha!!

My roomies!!!

Things are starting to fall together.  I'm starting to get to know my two roommates and we have already had some funny moments. For example: Amber, the blond one, just fell out of her bed which is about 3 feet off the ground while she was talking on the phone. It was pretty hilarious. lol.  Anyway, here is our first picture together!!!

Amber, me, and Alyssa :)

I'm gonna miss this.....

Tomorrow is the move-in date for Warner University.  I am soooo psyched.  Move-in starts at 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.  I think I'm going to get there early, as is my roommate, Amber.  We gotta make sure we get the good beds just in case we get stuck with a third girl.  (No offense, Third Girl, if you do show up).

Tonight, while we were all sitting down to dinner, and before we started eating, my mom was like "Why don't you pray since this is your last time to do it with us?"  I was like "Oh!!" And I made a sad face. lol. That is kinda sad though.... I'll miss that. And then a few minutes ago my mom was talking about going to Sea World while I was at Orientation, and Kerri was like  "No way, Mom!! Some girl died there! She got eaten by Shamwow! I don't want to get eaten!"  Haha. We just looked at her and started laughing. She does that alot. lol.  Good times.  Like I said, I'll miss this...

rOoMiEs!!!!!

GUESS WHHHAAAT????

I finally got my roommate assignments envelope today in the mail.  This morning we were leaving for Columbus to do some shopping, and we got the mail as we pulled out our drive.  As soon as I saw my dad reaching into the mailbox, I was like "PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEEEAASSSEE!!!!"  
And lo and behold, there it was :)
I opened it up and saw my future for the next year:

 Amber :)

 

                                                 Emily :)

 
So... basically, the first thing I did was text them both!!  (Duh. Like I could hold it in any longer? No way.)

Emily texted me back first and I told her who I was. Then she told me that she wouldn't actually room with the Amber and I until the second semester because she was doing the college program called HEART. It is an acronym for something... lol, but my memory has failed me as to what exactly that is. Anyway, it is a hardcore missionary training program where students, for a whole semester, live in the woods and learn to survive in the wild basically.  It is so amazing.  

Amber never texted me :( Not until the end of the day at least.  It was around 8:30 or 9 pm when we stopped at a MacDonald's on the way home (they have free wi-fi), and so I used my itouch to find Amber and add her to Facebook because she wasn't replying to my messages.  While we were still there she accepted my request and from then she figured out that they gave me her home phone number instead of her cell. So, we have been talking every since.

I think I got really lucky with my roommates.  I trust that God knows me pretty well to know who I will be good with. :) 

Emily and her boyfriend have started a little non-profit business called Sowing Love Ministries.  Their webstore is http://sowingloveministries.bigcartel.com Please check it out if you love hemp!!!! I want to help them grow for sure!! :)

Amber and I have only been talking about an hour so I am still learning a little bit about her. She is 5 '9!! Haha. Way taller than I am.  She raises lambs and shows them I think... at fairs? I'm not sure.

They are both so freaking gorgeous.  I cannot wait to get to know them better. I hope we can become really good friends...

I am envious of Amber because on Facebook, it looks like she has a best friend.  That is really awesome.  I'm glad that people can have best friends.  Although, I have never had a best friend :( But I am hoping that in college I will get one or two... or three.... or maybe seven :D 


Well, I know a few things so far... I have talked to Amber a lot longer than Emily.  I believe I might have found a kindred spirit. Haha :) Altho, looking at her pics on facebook, and seeing her with her best friend is a bit intimidating :/ 
And then, Emily. I think we will get along great as well because she is very super creative with her and her boyfriends website organization thing.  Plus, we have alot in common. She reminds me of my old best friend, Bekah :)


Whelp, that's it for now!!!
