Have you ever been part of something epic? I've been marching in the colorguards of DCI drum and bugle corps since I was 17, and it is always an incredible experience to spend three months with people your age, living together 24/7 and working to achieve artistic perfection. I took this summer off...

The past few days of summer '09 have been quite different from the preceding 9 weeks. Since being back home, I've had non-stop leisure time... including softball games, bike rides, hot-tubbing, laying by the pool, reading for fun, and hanging out with all my best friends I'd been missing...

Apparently Texas and Michigan are the places to be this summer, since I have hit up both of these great states twice this summer! Last time I was in Texas was all about Pi Phi, and they kept us busy pretty much nonstop at the national convention. This time I am here for purely selfish motives - visiting...

Like approximately 95% of the American population under 25, I went to see Harry Potter 6 last night at midnight. There was definitely an interesting assortment of people gathered at the theatre! When my friend Anna and I got out of the car, a green VW bug drove by with a cotton-bearded female Dumbledore...

I'm not usually a big concert attendee... it seems to me an awful lot of money to stand for a few hours and deal with drunk people when listening to music I already own. However, when I heard about the Green Team, I was definitely interested. This is a group of 16-22 year old volunteers that picks...

As predicted, I had a fantastic weekend with all of my friends for Midsummer! Several of my sisters came back for the event, happily crowding my poor apartment that has been lonely ever since my roommate went to Russia. It was really nice having my place as home base, a luxury none of us got to experience...

This weekend is one of the best weekends of the entire summer... Midsummer! It's the one time over break where everyone comes back to BU for hanging outside, playing volleyball, whiffleball, football, etc., slip'n'sliding, and other summer activities. I've been looking forward to this...

So apparently summer is sneaking by much faster than I had expected it to. Although I still have a few weeks until my return to Butler, one of my best friends from home, Lindsey, moved back to Indiana State today. She's involved in Sigma Kappa, one of the sororities at ISU, and had to move in early...

So I realize that I haven't blogged in a while, but to be honest, I really haven't had anything to blog about! I've been working so much lately that my off-days are usually spent laying around watching movies with friends... exciting... I know haha. This weekend did finally bring some change...

I've been back in New Pal for a little over a week now, and I'm finally starting to settle in. The suitcases and boxes that once crowded my floor are slowly but surely making their way out of my room. Yesterday I put new pictures in all of my frames and filled by bulletin board with memories...

You may think I put tons of pictures up on my blog, but for every one I post, there are hundreds more on my computer. To celebrate the end of 2007, I picked out some of my favorite shots that you haven't seen before. Enjoy! Bell tower in the snow, February 2007. Snow day! The guiding spirit of our...
