Gladrial????

HEY GUYS!!!!!!!!
I AM SO PUMPED UP RIGHT NOW!!!!! Haha Stud convinced me to join everyone that was going to play laser tag and man am I glad I listened!!!! I had a blast!!! Stud and a couple other guys were a little cocky before, but don't even worry about it, my buddy Superman (but actually a girl) and I put them in their place! ;) We made it our personal missions to hunt them down and shoot them as many times as possible!!! Mission Accomplished!!!! Now I'm sweaty and my tummy hurts though! Also another somewhat sour part of the evening is that I seem to have misplaced my student id card, which is a very very important card to have!!!! It has my food money, it's my key to open the outside doors, and its also my library card..... so ya I gotta find it!!!! ok guys, sorry my mood just crashed and burned, maybe i'll add more later.

This Blog Didn't Want to be Written!

Guys!!!! I'm fairly certain that this blog wanted another day off! The first time that I was about to start typing up tonight's entry the fire alarm went off for a late night fire drill, meaning I had to run down six flights of stairs! Once I finally came back up stairs after freezing my bum off I was about to open my laptop when a girl in my theology class came to my room desperate for help, after Stud told her that I knew he answers, so her gpa doesn't get ruined! So I happily went upstairs and helped her out! I finally got back to my room to write this blog and  I forgot my password so I had to reset it and then my laptop kept glitching out!!!! Then Crazy J and her secret lover came in and now they are distracting me!!!! ugh!!! ok they left for yet another late night mcdonalds run!

Today I had a very long, napless day! Sitting through a documentary on Athenian democracy first thing in the morning is pure agony!!!! Psych was mind-blowingly interesting though so that was pretty good! My mommy came to visit me, take my laundry and bring me extra snacks today and we visited for a couple hours before she went back home for a meeting, I really enjoy how much we actually talk now as opposed to the very short conversations we used to have when I still lived at home. Then, after my mommy left, I went to the bible study with Logic, ya know, the one Smiles leads? It was actually really interesting and we spent a whole hour talking about the first two verses in the book of 1 Timothy!! We got really in depth on why Paul may have phrased them the way he did and the meanings behind some of the words. I picked a very horrible seating placement though, I sat directly across the table from Smiles! Probably one of the best and worst decisions I could have made, every time he looked at me I couldn't help but smiling, which I eventually started trying to hide because he had to look at me so often, (as I mentioned, we were directly across the table from each other), also I blushed every time he asked me a question or used my name in an example, (he used my name in most of his examples), and I had a combination of a giant smile and a hardcore blush when he commented on one of my answers, saying he had never thought of it that way before. It was horrible! Logic just laughed at me afterwards about how I was still bright red twenty minutes after the meeting was over!!!!! I went up to Stud's room and told him all about it, of course he had to then wink and smile at me, which just makes the blushing return, which then makes him do a super cheesy smile!!! It's a horrible cycle really! :P I hung out with Stud for a bit and we worked (loosely defined work on his part) on theology and then went and looked at the photo scavenger hunt pictures that were finally printed out!!! It was actually a lot of fun!

All in all, today turned out to be a really good day and I get to go home tomorrow to see my Crazy Bonkers Twin!!!! Yayyyyyyy!!!!!!!

Until next time, all my love,


University Girl ;)

Dreaming the Days Away

Hello fellow dreamers,

hahaha wow what a cheesy way to start this post! Whatever, that's just the mood i'm in today! :) I suppose I should fill you in on my yesterday, it was absolutely wonderful.

Yesterday I woke up early enough to ensure I'd catch the shuttle bus from our school to a church in the city I live in. I went downstairs and sat on the bench in front of my school by myself for a while until I was accompanied by someone else who was also wanting to catch the shuttle, it was Smiles! :) My heart jumped a little, but I contained it so I don't think he heard it, thankfully. We chatted for a bit as more people joined us on the bench until the bus finally came where we slid into the seats and enjoyed small chat until we arrived at the church. I really enjoyed all the songs we sang in worship while watching a lady dance with a flag type thing that was super pretty and the sermon on interruptions was a really insightful look at the meaning of them and how we handle all the seemingly annoying interruptions in our day. (I tend to only welcome the ones that stop me from doing my homework hehe.) After church we piled into a couple cars (no, Smiles was not in my car) and drove to a corn roast the pastor of the church was putting on! We got to enjoy lots of delicious food, including dessert, and I got to know some other people that go to my school. It was a lot of fun!!! Once that was over six of us piled into one guys five person car and drove back to the school! It was squishy, but we jammed out and did a-capella version of lean on me that was super interesting. haha. I spent the next few hours just reviewing my morning and afternoon over and over again until we had floor bonding night, where the people on my floor in residence, (including Smiles) get together and watch an episode of the show Lie to Me. It's kind of ridiculous though cuz I laugh at everything Smiles says, I can't help it! Also, I'm fairly certain that he probably thinks I have some weird medical condition that makes me have a constant blush, because that is honestly all I do when he's around! It's horrible! I just know Stud is gunna notice next time we are all in the same place! After floor bonding I got to give Stud a couple big hugs cuz he ditched me all weekend! (I know right, what a mean friend!!) But, then again, he did make up for it by chillin with me and just having a big talk about everything. :) I forgive you for ditching, Stud.

So, that was my day yesterday, sounds pretty friggin wonderful right? Well, that's because it was! Today, was pretty lame in comparison though. Nothing special really happened, other than me getting upset with Roomie about telling Logic who I liked, that makes me very grumpy! But today was a very uneventful one, unfortunately. I mostly just sat and listened to "Falling for You" by Colbie Caillat on repeat all day and smiled as I daydreamed haha, not very productive, maybe I'll do better tomorrow, probably not though. haha

That's all for now loves,

Vodka and Coca-Cola

Hey Guys,

So..... last night was not one of my proudest! Crazy J and Lions Den convinced me that we should go out with a bunch of people and get drunk. We wound up going to this one guys house for pre-drinks before the group went to go bar hopping, before we walked to this guys house we went to the liquor store and bought a two six of  vodka between the three of us. We arrived at the persons house and almost immediately walked to the table. Lions Den grabbed us each a coke out of the fridge and a shot glass, we filled the glasses and took a shot, and chased it with coke then put our shot glasses back down and did it four or five more times. (If you know me, you know I rarely ever drink and when I do it's only ever a couple of coolers.) We finished five or six shots in under twenty minutes then just hung out for a bit until everyone else decided it was time to hit the town. Crazy J had lost her id a while ago so we just got someone to drive us back to our campus where we went and drank a few shots from the bottle in the parking lot before heading into our friends room to hang out with a bunch of people, aka we basically entertained the sober people by how talkative we were and by doing the child pose a bunch of times. One of the guys who's room it was, let's call him Logic, was super helpful and saved me a lot. He went and got me a bottle of water from  my room when I needed it and was the only one who looked after me. I wound up crawling from my seat on the floor to their bathroom and getting sick, I missed the toilet for a second or two, but I'm still considerate when I'm drunk so I cleaned it up and got Logic to make sure I got it all. Once I came back out of the bathroom, I looked up at Logic and he asked if I was done and I just said, yup I sure was. I then asked him to help get me back to my room, so he put out his arm and steadied me until we got to my room where I went straight to my bed and fell asleep, lights on and door wide open. I woke up fairly early this morning and realized my lights were off and my door was closed, thanks again to Logic looking after me. I fell back asleep and woke up with really bad cramps.... yes I drank this much alcohol while a whole lot of blood was leaving my system, and also a slight feeling of light-headedness. Stud came in to laugh at me and apologize for not coming to say good night to me (like he said he would), and to give me a couple hugs before he left to go home for the night. Needless to say, it's been a very long day!
Lesson of the night/ day don't drink 10 straight shots of vodka when you are losing blood because you are a woman, it's just a bad idea.\

All my love,

Sad Night

Hello Friends!

I had a fairly decent day that is ending a somewhat sad, lonely night.

I'll start with the good, ok so our university held a big conference that we had to go to and listen to this guy speak about technology becoming so advanced that in the near(ish) future there is a possibility that we will become immortal by transferring our consciousness to computers that will continue forever. It was somewhat interesting, but I was super tired, I attended all day yesterday and decided I would only go to the first seminar thingy this morning then just skip the rest of the day and spend it napping and such. I hung out with my super great friend, Stud, for a bit. I told him about this blog last night and he is desperately trying to figure out who codename: Smiles is and it's really quite entertaining!!!! Hi, Stud, good luck figuring it out! :P Speaking of Smiles, I got to see him multiple times today, including our first small group Bible Study meeting!!! It was good, I'm getting better at finding my voice when he's around. Yay me!
Anyway, Roomie and I got al dressed up, took a bunch of selfies and danced around our room today, needless to say, I was in a really good mood! :P She signed us up for an open mic thing that's taking part next week, which would be cool....... IF I DIDN'T GET CRAZY STAGE FRIGHT WHEN I'M IN FRONT OF ANYONE!!!!!! So, ya I'm freaking out about that! I also met roomies boyfriend, who is a dick, ( sorry for being rude, but he really is.)

The sad part of my night came shortly after she left with him, I've basically just chilled by myself since then and that gives me way too much time to think about sad things. :( One example of these sad things would be that I definitely have little, to no, shot with Smiles. He's way too focused on all his responsibilities (not saying that's bad at all), I get too nervous to talk to him, and we aren't even the same year in school! No chance.... sigh! Also I don't really see myself as something anyone would pursue, and since I'm too nervous to really talk with him, I'm screwed. What do you do when you want something to happen so bad, but you know it won't? Please tell me.

That's all I got for now, sorry I jump around so much.
All my love,

University Girl

My Retreat Weekend!


Hello Friends/ pageviewers/ followers/ aliens (?),

This past weekend, students and leaders from my University College went on a lovely camp/ retreat weekend! I had an absolute blast, but I am now aching and sick from all the activities!!!! Totally Worth It!!!! I had an amazing time and got to chill with lots of super great people! There is so much to say that I really don't know where to start! I suppose I will start with an overview, then dig deeper into my favorite parts, I'll try not to miss anything!

We arrived Friday evening and had a short kick off night, which included two-minute-movies and some group chill time, then we had a fire that night. It was an early morning on Saturday as we had scheduled breakfast time at 8:30. Once breakfast was over, the real fun began, we had some free time to partake in various activities around the camp, which included human foosball, zip lining, rock wall climbing, archery, swimming in the pool, as  well as various other options. We enjoyed a group lunch then had an option to do waterfront time which meant we could go canoeing, kayaking, paddling boating or enjoy a guided boat ride. Everybody enjoyed some dinner then we had a wide game called mission impossible!!!! Another campfire followed all of this and then we went back to our cabins to sleep before the second early morning rise-and-shine! Sunday was a very long day, we enjoyed worship and a mini service, broke up into small groups, then had lunch, a super fun photo scavenger hunt, and about three hours of chill time in which almost everybody was sleeping after such an exhausting weekend! We waited longer than expected for the buses and then were finally on our way back home!!!! All in all it was a really fun, hyper, active, exhausting weekend!

Ok, now the portion you've all been waiting for...... MY FAVORITE PARTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO!!!! THE CROWD GOES WILD!!!! ok well maybe you're not that excited, but you should be!

I really enjoyed chillin with my new pal, Crazy J, and Timid, making Lions Den participate (he eventually started to enjoy his weekend), zip lining, meeting lots of new people, canoeing with Timid, the creative photo scavenger hunt and somehow winding up in two groups (that were randomly selected) with Smiles!!!

Crazy J and I both live on the same floor in the tower at our school, but we had never really talked much before, we got to bond a lot over the weekend and I'm so thankful because now I have another really good friend who I can actually tell things to! She's really nice, funny, crazy, and just an overall a really chill person to talk to. We hung out all weekend and just had some really awesome times! We also hung out with Timid a lot, but she actually wound up finding some new friends, so I'm really happy for her.

Ok, next on my list is making Lions Den participate. It started out by little things like getting to join in a game of human foosball (which is a super fun game that I wound up playing for like a whole hour!!!!) and then he just gradually started getting more involved in other activities, making new friends and started really enjoying himself, so I got to say "I told you so" which was completely wonderful! haha.

I have always enjoyed zip lining, so I was super happy that this camp had one set up, Crazy J and I each went down and really enjoyed it! I also got to have a bunch of random conversations with my classmates, which I was really happy about because it made me feel like I kinda actually fit in this community and that I'm gunna have a really great year! Timid and I enjoyed the canoeing for a little while, she laughed almost the entire time because I kept overpowering her and steering the canoe in different directions to the point where she just stopped paddling and I steered us back to the dock, I must say, I was feeling pretty strong. haha.

For the creative photo scavenger hunt we were randomly counted off into 15 different groups and each group was given a disposable camera and a list of pictures they had to take! I really had a lot of fun doing this because our group really thought out all the different pictures and had a lot of fun getting to know each other and capturing all the silly moments. This is one of the groups that Smiles and I both wound up in, I've obviously learned to kinda control the crazy heart rate and breathing issues, in order to chill with him. :P We did lots of crazy fun pictures, including one where Smiles had to jump into the pool multiple times while catching a Frisbee, it was really funny and he was a really good sport about it. :)

The other group we were randomly put into together was two-minute-movies. In this game your group was given twenty minutes to plan a two minute re-enactment of a movie that was assigned to you, our group got Anchorman. It was pretty funny and I think everyone really enjoyed it, I know I did. :)

But, I think that's all for now. Thanks for reading!

Lots of Love,

University Girl

One Lovely Wednesday


hey ladies and/or gents!

How is everyone out there in blogland? my day was absolutely lovely, excluding a couple rough patches, I was in an absolutely wonderful mood from the moment I woke up this morning and I just thought to myself, "yes, this is gunna be a great day!" .....and I was definitely right!

I began my day, as I usually do, by waking up and getting ready for class. I had already decided what I was going to look like last night, so this was a simple task. I put my hair in a side pony with loose curls, did "natural looking makeup," (is there really such a thing as natural makeup?) and put on a cute new dress with my black flats with bows on them. I must admit, I felt super adorable!!! So once that was all finished, I got my books together and headed out the door, just as Roomie was getting out of bed. I made my way down to English class where my commuter friend, let's call her Tep (she's in my theology, English, and psych classes), agreed that I looked super cute today, which absolutely had me beaming! Once the fifty minute block of English was over, I faced a four hour break between then and my next class, theology. But not to worry, there is so much to do at my school it is INSANE!!!!! So I found myself going to chapel to enjoy the worship music and stories about one ladies trip to Kenya, which was super interesting!  My good mood didn't fade in the slightest so I ran up to my room to dance to the song that was stuck in my head, "I'm Walking on Sunshine!" So I danced my heart away and ran to theology to sit with Tep and my other commuter friend, Timid. I was way to hyper for the class so Tep and I just sat and wrote funny pictures and captions in our notes! Theology slowly passed and I went to the club fair and signed up for a couple clubs that I'm sure I'll inform you all of as the year goes on.

There's something I have been keeping from you, my readers, and it has to do with a boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT?!?!?!?!? Did I just say I've been keeping boy info from you, my possibly faithful readers???? Why, yes I did, but have no fear! the information is here! hehe.

Ok so for the purposes of this blog, I will now and forever (maybe) refer to him as Smiles. :) He smiles a lot and it's really a super great smile, so ya that's my blog code name for him. Now I met Smiles on my first day moving to my university and I instantly got little butterflies and it drove me crazy!!! I really can't explain why I act, or react, when he's around. For example, today, as I was leaving chapel I noticed he was leaving at the same time and wound up walking right behind me, I got so nervous, my heart started racing, and I had to focus on my breathing, just so the people around me wouldn't think I had some medical issue that needed attention!!! I literally had to go up to my room, calm myself down, collect my thoughts and drink a yogurt thing before I could even face more people! I can honestly say, I've never reacted that way to anyone before. Wait!!! It gets stranger still..... I also went to an evening chapel this evening (Lion's Den and Roomie wouldn't go with me, so I wound up arriving alone :(. ) and within a minute or two of sitting down on one of the comfy lounge chairs, Smiles walked over to me and started asking me about my day and my courses, and flashing that super amazing smile at me, and I stayed perfectly calm!!! What the heck??????? If anyone can explain these happenings to me, I welcome you to comment or message me somehow because I would love to know!

But that's all for tonight folks,
lots of love,
University Girl :)

First Day Jitters?

Hey, it's University Girl here!!! Ok, so today was my first day of actual university classes!!!!! And oh was it exciting! :P Today I had history (which, in general, I hate) and psychology (which in general I am absolutely infatuated with!!!!!) Here's the crazy thing, though.... I'm not fascinated by the classes, it's the people I am absolutely lovin' on! I'm meeting so many interesting and new people, it's super great! So far I have made friends with quite a few people, but as some of my blogging friends do, I will make up code names for them! The two I am closest with so far will be referred to as Lions Den and, for lack of an imagination atm, Roomie! Roomie is obviously my roommate and it is kinda creepy how similar we are!
Similarities between Roomie and I include: being crazy, loving rugby, being social, being creepers, never looking nice in pictures, and more!
We are gunna be pretty great roommates so I'm glad she's not my complete opposite and it's awkard, which is the case between Lions Den and his roommate. Lions Den and his roommate don't even talk cuz they have close to nothing in common, talk about awkward!!!!!! hehe Roomie and I keep trying to get them to be best friends, hasn't worked yet, but I will keep you updated! This is the beginning of Sixth Floor Fun Times with Roomie, Lions Den, and I!!!

Lots of love!!!!!\
