Ahh, the life of a college girl...

So my classes at Radford University have entirely consumed my soul. Well, not entirely...there's still the big piece that God has and theres the other parts that Nate has. But I digress. I'm amazingly being able to keep my head above the ocean of papers, projects, and quizzes/tests that I've been enduring over the past month and a half. I love college. I'm entirely ready to be done with it, but I am loving it while I'm here. I almost ALMOST wish I'd gotten a dorm on campus...again, I must reiterate ALMOST. Still glad I didnt.
So yesterday was me and Nate's 4 year annniversary. Yeah. We began dating October 10th, 2006. Insane, I know. If we weren't so young, yesterday would have been our wedding day because it was 10/10/10 and that would have been just perfectly awesome. But oh well...one day...
In other news, fall has arrived in Virginia. If you've ever been in Virginia this time of year, especially if you haven't, you must come/return!! There is nowhere else I'd rather be at this time of year (except maybe Vermont...I hear they have excellent falls...) than Southwest Virginia. The trees are changing and the mountains are going from their typical blue look to amazing variations of orange, yellow, red, and brown. It is indeed a sight to see. Especially, I hear, from the Blue Ridge Parkway. Hopefully this year Nate and I will get up there to see for ourselves...
Halloween is right around the corner already!! If you didn't know, it's definitely my favorite holiday. I don't know why. Maybe it's the colors, maybe its the spookiness, or maybe it's my recently new love for horror movies [I like seein people get cut up...*shrugs*] but alas, I love it all. I've already bought and received my costume...I'm going to be a 1920's Flapper and I'm still in the process of talking Nate into being a gangster with me. hehe...we'll see.
I've been given the opportunity this semester to work in a daycare center in Blacksburg and it has reassured me that I'm in the right department for a career because I love what I'm doing there. I'm actually hoping to get a position there shortly and QUIT SUBWAY!!! Yeah. I hate that place sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much. So much.
