hey everyone! i hope you're enjoying your summers :)
school starts in approximately 19 days! are you getting excited? i know i am!

i have been SUPER busy this summer...as you can tell because it's taken me longer than a month to blog! lol

just to touch on the last post, grace's wedding was absolutely beautiful! i am so happy for her and justin!
but since then, my life has consisted of work, work, play, and work. between campus and mcdonalds, i hardly have time to breathe!
the spy trips we went on for the admissions office went really well! we went to 13 schools total, if i remember correctly. each school had something special about it, and that helped us think of ways to approve our office as well as our campus tours, etc.. i anticipate GOOD change in the office for this year!! :)

i've been trying to hang out with friends as much as possible, although sometimes it's only for an hour or so. one of my friends just got an apartment in lima, right across the street from campus, and after work the other night, her and i, along with my friend jess, got chinese and watched a movie called Derailed. the movie was insane! if you have never seen it, i HIGHLY reccommend it! seriously..lol it's crazy! also, it was nice just hanging out, talking and having a girls' night :)

last wednesday, i participated in something that i had never done before: a high ropes course. wednesday was training day, and sara, our boss on campus, took all the student assistants there for peer bonding. it was so much fun! i don't know if you know anything about a high ropes course..but..you have a harness around your waist along with caribeeners (i know i spelled that wrong) attached to ropes. you dangle from these ropes 3 stories from the ground. you go through different rope obstacle courses, using your caribeeners/rope lines. and wow. you learn a lot about yourself! it takes teamwork to do these courses, but in the end, you are responsible to get yourself through the course. i have more confidence, along with some sweet looking bruises..hehe we also went bowling after the high ropes course...is there a better way to train?!

it's time for me to get going...i'm going out tonight with a few new friends from Sidney. we're going to Wright State to watch the Sidney football game (not quite sure why!) and then we're going to go hang out with some of their friends. i'm pretty excited! i love meeting new people :)

oh, and i looked at my books the other day to see what damage is going to be done to my checking account...my chemistry book comes with 3-d glasses....help?! lol

have a lovely evening!

later on! :)
