Let's get our ears pierced!

Ever since the first week of college my friends and I have talked about getting our cartilage pierced. So last night we finally went out to get it done. Poor Kyle had to drive three girls to the Beaver County Mall to get their ears pierced. We decided to get them done at Piercing Pagoda. Molly and I picked out blue stud earrings and Sylvia got diamond studs. Molly made me go first because she was nervous :) We all held the little bear/dog/ bunny (we weren't quite sure what it was) while the lady pierced our ears. Molly and I got the cartilage on our left ear pierced and Sylvia got a second piercing on both sides. It wasn't too painful but it definitely hurt worse than my other ear piercings. We love them though :)

 

Mine :)

Molly's :)

Both of us!

"Brown paper packages tied up with string..."

"...these are a few of my favorite things." Last night I checked my mailbox which usually is empty or full of junk mail. Every time I check my mail I always look for a little slip that says I have a package. I don't know why but I love getting stuff in the mail...especially packages!! Anyway last night that little slip was in my mail box. I was so excited but unfortunately the mailroom had closed and I had to wait until my classes got out today before I could go and retrieve my mysterious package. So right after lab today I went straight to the mailroom (extremely excited and curious). I got my package (which was from home, YAY!!) and walked to my room to open it. I met Emily on the way and decided to share this momentous time with her. We sat on a bench and I tore open the package. And this is what was inside:

Well this is what the outside looked like :)

There was a very sweet letter from Moriah and Mom

But best of all the package had cookies. Homemade cookies. Mmmm! Spice and Snickerdoodle.

I devoured a couple right away :)

I love my family!! Thank you so much for the cookies!! Oh and I like the poster too ;)

Dorm Rooms

Dorm rooms are what every little kid dreams of. A chance to be on your own, decorate your own way, stay up as late as you want, watch movies, etc. My dorm room is just that. It has a little bit of me and my roomies character in it, we stay up late (when we don't have homework), we watched a great movie last night. I guess you could say I love my room. Don't get me wrong it isn't perfect. It is extremely hot, not nearly enough room for all of our stuff, and can get depressing when it is really messy. But still it is my place to chill. I just finished cleaning it so I could upload pics to show you all what it looks like.

I love my room :)
