It's busy over here

Okay, so I know I'm a slack blogger. Let me just say that my life has become too busy, and I'm very unhappy about it to be honest. I value having downtime. This semester, it seems that won't be the case. Between school, my internship (aka work at cvs), wedding planning, applying to pharmacy school, and making an e-portfolio for graduation (how annoying), I find myself slacking on what I want to do and even what I need to do for school. So, if I don't blog or if they suck, bear with me. I haven't figured out how this semester will work yet.

Hopefully, more to come soon.

Breathe in...Football...Breathe out

First football game of senior year was overall great! I for one, loved our tailgate. It was great just to hang out with friends in preparation for the game. Two things we should work on: a light for after the game & more coolers so we can keep all the food cold during the game. Oh yeah, and rain gear. We tailgated near Clemson House which made the trek downtown for shopping, or window looking, accessible. I finally got my Clemson '09 sticker. Which, the semester is crazy with school and my internship. I feel so busy all the time. Forgive me if I blog less, you know, since I'm such a regular blogger and all.

Also, I finally got my wedding napkins and bridesmaid gifts in--how exciting!!

SpRiNg BrEaK~~Can I go back?

So after getting up ridiculously early Sunday morning & an 8+ hour trip, we made it to Mexico Beach Florida. Our condo turned out to be completely awesome! We were a block from the beach and right on the canal.

We spent our time on the beautiful white sandy beach, kicking around in the heated pool, and relaxing in the hot tub. Aside from the uh, "overly friendly" old women one night, we had the pools to ourselves. We went out for St. Patty's day, hoping to find an Irish celebration, sadly we only found a beachy imitation of one...kinda. We went out for dinner later in the week at a cute marina-side restaurant that was semi-outside. Their fried shrimp was delicious!

The boys spent their time kite flying.While the girls spent enjoyed chatting (when they could pull me away from my book).

And of course Nathan tried to get me to go for a swim in the gulf--too cold for my big toe!

Valentine's Day

In response to SB's Valentine's post, I thought I'd share some about my Vday! :)

To start things off, I cooked dinner for Nathan Friday night. I cooked stuffed pasta. I modified a recipe I found on cooks.com but it turned out delicious! I also made asparagus, bought some french bread, and a Biltmore wine. I also decorated the table and the porch, with the blinds shut it didn't even feel like Kelly & Carmen were spying like I suspect they were!

After dinner, we went out with Kyndall for her birthday :) The next morning Nathan brought me Bo-berry biscuits. I had been craving them for awhile. AND, they were heart shaped!!

That afternoon, Nathan met me at the apartment with flowers to take me to take me on our date to Greenville. Our first stop was Wolfe Camera. We made a photobook of the pictures from Ocean Isle & our engagement. I really like it and now we have something tangible to remember it by. After that we headed over to the shops at Woodruff which is somewhere I love going. Nathan and I shopped around a little--hit our favorite spot World Market!--and then grabbed dinner at Panera's. Now don't knock Panera's. It's one of my favorite places and Nathan just made a major purchase afterall :). We came home after getting dessert and watched Roadanthe. I definitely cried. It was a wonderful Valentine's day. Nathan made it perfect!

Sonny's Back!

I am so pumped that Sonny is back in Clemson! I already feel the life building back up in our apartment. That little dog makes me laugh so much! For instance, when Kelly's friend Lauren came over today, Sonny totally looked up her dress and this was their first meeting! (Sonny and Lauren's that is). He also stole Carmen's bedroom shoe the instant she opened the door to her room...I wish I could be as baller as Sonny! I mean, who doesn't get a twinge of satisfaction in relocating one of Carmen's possessions? :-)

Sonny coming home: Trophy of Snaps

74-47 That tops all!

I am so glad I went to the Clemson-Duke game tonight. Before the game began I was hopeful that we would at least play a good game, but I definitely was expecting an amazing win! I was just excited enough to be in the same "room" as Coach K (flippin awesome!). But WOAH!!! Clemson totally shocked me and blew Duke out of the water! We played with such skill and finesse! Watching Coach K sub in his whole line-up (yup, all 5 of them) at least 3 times was amusing and gratifying at the same time. It made the game even sweeter that I didn't have to wait in line for tickets ;-) I think I could ride this high all night, but alas, I need sleep.
