Definitely a Goof Ball. My Freshman Year of College.

Let’s just say, I wasn’t the primo college girl my Freshman year….I learned some important life skills and got a great education outside the classroom.  Perfect year I must say.

After moving out of one dorm and into another my first year, I met a great group of girls and some I still talk to even to this day.  Let’s just say I had a blast this Christmas.

…then you throw the randomness of black hair dye…..a Wal-Mart shopping trip…AND the sporting goods aisle and you’ll have on helluva time.  Trust me…I know these things.  I invented the word fun inside one podunk towns Wally World

Would you look at that grip!  Not to worry, I didn’t technically swing the driver, although I really wanted to…

Deflating the yoga ball.  The one true cause of why I’ve had 2 nose jobs….it’s a crazy story, but I blame that yoga ball for breaking my nose.

Heading out to the only club worth going to in Ada.  At the time it was C4 although, I’m not sure as to what it’s called now.  I’ve heard it’s changed names thousands of times since then, which makes me feel older than dirt.

Another shot from the Christmas Party that year.  We rocked at having a good time that year and looking back now, I’m not sure I’d do anything differently…well other than study more!

 

What You Didn’t Know About Me

…I can be a bit goofy…and silly…and love to make a mess of things or at least get messy….

I’ve always been blessed to have great friends around at all times.  Even if they were my State Officer team.

I can rock the official dress code of BPA and have my leg wrapped up in a semi-cast from a not so great dance injury so long ago.


Studying Materials

I’ve found the best studying materials and they’re soooo much better than those of their counter part, the original Hot Tamales.  Now, they come in a 3 step process.  You’ve got your Mellow & Wimpy Hot Tamales, the original and the Super Hot & Firey Hot Tamale.  I do believe I’ve finally met my match as the hottest ones actually bring tears to my eyes.

So while paper writing sucks for some, I’ve grown to really enjoy it.  Well, just as long as I have a bag of Hot Tamales and  some extra time on my hands.  These things are usually few & far between when it comes to studying for finals though.  Luckily, I’m stocked up on 9 pounds of Hot Tamales for now & I’m sure those will be gone in no time once mid terms roll around.  So, here’s to a wonderful semester — can’t wait to go through 9 pounds of candy (actually, I can).

Study Buddy

Ellie-O & I are learning some relationship advice from one of my classes tonight.  She’s actually a pretty great study buddy and I’m completely loving her ability to sit still for long periods of time just like this.  Makes my day just having her around and acting like she’s actually reading my books and learning something.  Love HER.

 

Campus Girl

Who loves driving to school?  Not me!  I’d much rather take the interstate or drive down a 4 lane highway instead of driving to OU’s campus.  There is a ton of traffic on the road all the time no matter what time of day it is.  Needless to say I prefer to spend my time North of campus and out of traffic.

 

The building where one of my classes is held.  Weird ain’t it?  Oh well, it’s the Physical Science building, it’s allowed to be uhhhh, different.

On a normal school day….I wear cutesy dresses…have a pair of sunglasses on my head/face at all times…I AM the typical college girl.

 

 

Early College Years

Sure, I’ve partied.  Sure, I’ve done things most would have never thought of me doing.  I’ve danced until the wee hours of the morning.  I’ve hung out with friends inside a giant foam mass and had a great time.  I’ve indeed lived up the college lifestyle.

 

I’ve hung out with friends while living it up too.  Don’t get me wrong.  I’ve had quite the college career and in just a year, it’ll all be over with.  Can’t wait for that day to come!

Yes, I put my actual number on my shirt one night….talk about one crazy college girl.

 

Miss Thang :: That’s Me

Anyone care to take a guess just where I am in this old school photo op?  Let’s think about this shall we.  My JR High no longer exists.  It’s actually been condemned.  No lie.  I was apart of the last class to graduate from this school before the younger kids switched to the new middle school that was built.  So…..this photo would be around circa 1999…I was a mere 14 years of age and a full on fake blonde headed kid.

Yes, that’s right.  I said fake.  Blame my blonde headedness on my Mom & Delilah.  They decided to highlight my hair once, which just turned out to highlight my entire head instead of strands.  There are photos of that incident actually.  My first highlighting experience involved a lot of tears, every hair on my head being pulled through a cap (someone didn’t read the directions before starting & it wasn’t me!) & one happy girl at the very end of getting my hair done for the first time.  It definitely was a moment I’ll always remember.

Okay, so back to this photo…..  Any ideas who I just might be in this photo?  If you’ve given up, I’m the one on the right.  Let’s not critique my clothing choices as this was long ago and now I wouldn’t be caught out of the house like that — ever.
