P.S. I just got a stumbleupon account today because of Jaimee and Bailey. I love it!!! It is so fun, but it is a really bad distraction!

So much FUN! Cincinnati is pretty great:)
Soooo Saturday Jaimee and I finished up our grocery shopping at Aldi and Meijer. We had to get some things in order to make tortellini soup! When we got back to the apartment we started to prepare dinner. It took about 2 hours to get it all done. While we waiting we played sequence and war. Finally, the soup was done!!! We were so excited! We served up and sat down at the table to eat :) After dinner we sat down to watch a show on the Internet while we waited for Bailey to come over. An hour passed and Bailey got there and it was time for us to plan our adventures for the night. We decided to go to Oktoberfest in downtown Cincinnati. It was pretty fun but there were tons of people! We were only there about an hour and then we decided to leave. Then we traveled just down the road to our favorite spot at Sawyer Point :) There we took tons of pictures and sat for a good 20 minutes. Finally, we decided to leave but as we were walking to the car we saw some railroad tracks and took some pictures. Jaimee claimed "That's what all the people do for senior pictures" haha. When we decided to leave we ran to the car but sadly Bailey's foot got stuck in the railroad track :/ Luckily she got her foot out but her shoe was stuck. We all pulled and tried so hard to get it out and nothing was working, it was stuck. After another big tug from Jaimee it came out!! As we got back in the car we headed back to the apartment. Before we went there though we stopped at CVS and picked up some ice cream and a movie. Bailey and Jaimee wanted a scary movie although I hate watching them I agreed and we rented "Vanishing on 7th street." We soon made our place in the living room and got ready to start the movie. About 30 minutes into it we realized that it was really the stupidest movie ever... Ugh a waste a money. 3am rolled around and we thought we better get to bed since we had church in the morning. We all woke up around 10 and we were so excited but at the time super nervous because we were going to go to a college group. As we arrived at the church we found the classroom and we went in. It was a good lesson about how to communicate with God through prayer :) I know I learned some things! The lesson was wrapping up and the guy sitting beside me asked us if we would be interested in attending a Campus Crusade thing at UC. Of course we said yes, so hopefully we will be going to a meeting this Wednesday! After church I got to Skype with Taylor! Then we all watched the movie Holes. After the movie we just sat around doing nothing pretty much. Then 6 rolled around and we headed over to Sam's to work out!! We did the Ab ripper of P90x. It was pretty intense. We hope to keep it up but we will see with our busy school work all the time. That was all Sunday consisted of. Today, we didn’t do anything except school. We had to be there at 7:30am. We had 2 back to back classes and then Jaimee and I sat in the hallway waiting for Bailey and Sam to get done with their English meeting. While we waited we ate our lunch. When Bailey was done with her meeting we went back to her place and did a Case Study for class. Soon it was 2pm and we were headed back to school for Biology class and learned about skin. After that we came back to the apartment and took out NUR 110 quiz and our BIO 111 test. When we finished that up I stumbled upon a periodic table of condiments and saw that gravy in only good for 3 days. We had left over gravy from the soup so we didn’t want to waste it! We decided to make mashed potatoes and watch some show call ten things I hate about you. It was pretty entertaining. Now we just finished our abs workout and Jaimee washed her clinical uniform in the bathtub. It has been a good day and we got a lot of things accomplished. This week is going to be super busy with homework :/ and we have our 2nd nursing exam on Monday. We probably won't be able to do another blog until the weekend so for now that's all we have :)

Catching Up (i am sorry we have been busy)
Because of how busy Morgan and I have been this past week, we have not had a chance to sit down and write out a blog post. Now that I am awake at 9:42 on a Saturday morning, i finally have found some time to write about what has been happening in our crazy busy lives.
Monday
Monday there was not much to talk about, other than it was our busy day of school. We had just gotten back from a nice weekend in Richmond, and here we found ourselves waking up for a 7:30 class! How can anyone enjoy that? Well we got there and sat in our Nursing 120 class and began to take notes over how to do Vital signs such as: Blood Pressure, Temperature, Pulse, and Respiration. This stuff was actually fun to learn how to do. We did not get finished going through the chapter on Vital Signs before our next class, so she said we would finish up next time. After a mandatory 10 minute break we sat down in the same room for our Nursing 110 class. Most of that class consisted of taking notes over.....you guessed it....vital signs, AGAIN! Ha ha, i am sure by now everyone is very clear on how to take vital signs. Which is a good thing because they are very important to do. The last thirty minutes our professor told us to practice taking manual blood pressures. That was fine, but we were really wanting to get outta school because we were tired of being there for almost four hours in one sitting.
After we escaped that class room, Morgan, Bailey, Sam, and I all decided to go back to Baileys place and get some homework or something done. After a quick stop at Chipotle for Sam, we arrived at Baileys place and had some lunch! I am really sorry to say, but Monday was a super hard day to accomplish anything. I do not know what it was, but the four of us were so distracted that we did not get any homework accomplished in the two hours we were at Baileys house...It really was a shame, but at least we did have a fun time with each other. (And, its not like any of the homework we had to get done was going to be due really soon. Just to point that out.) After our two hours of nothing, we headed back to the school for our last class of the day...Biology. Sadly we still could not focus. We took notes for the first half of the class, which is the really boring part, and then we did our lab. I do like doing the labs because recently we have been looking through the microscopes, and i have become a pro at focusing the lens on the cells we have been looking at..Monday we looked at simple squamous cells and stuff like that. It was really interesting, but did not really keep us focused. Anyways, that class got done and then we all headed back to our places for the evening. I can not really remember what Morgan and I did that night. Hmm, probably homework.
Tuesday
On Tuesday, Morgan and I had to go to our GEN class. This is a class that will only be five different time this semester. We have already been to two of them so far, so we only have three left. I believe GEN stands for General, but then again I really have no clue at all. This was a three hour class which was long, but soon it was done! After we got our of there, Morgan and I had to head over to the hospital to do our research for Clinical the next day. We use a program called Epic that gives us info on the patient we were assigned. So that took us about an hour or so each. Morgan and I were on separate floors of the hospital for this because we don't have the same clinical groups. I got done first and sat in one of the student lounge rooms while i waited for Morgan to get done. Shortly she arrived in the room and we sat there doing homework before we had to go to Ethics. We took two quizzes in Ethics. The first was a single quiz, and the second was the same quiz taken in groups of three people. Morgan and I both got 100% on the single and group quizzes. So far both of us have a 100% in the class which is great to think about! After that class we headed back to the apartment to start on our clinical packets we had to fill out based on the information we collected today. Sadly, i ended up learning that I mistakenly collected information on the wrong person! I had to drive back to the hospital at 8:00 and spend a whole hour looking up information AGAIN!! that was so frustrating. Around 9:30 i got back to the apartment and had to finish all my clinical stuff. I do not remember what time we got to bed, but i know that it was not the time i wanted to. I could not wait for Wednesday to be over! Then we would have a easy rest of the week.
Wednesday
I hate Wednesdays only because Morgan and I have to get up SUPER early. But half way through clinical, i am not tired anymore, and i really do love learning things during my clinical. The first hour we sat in a class room watching a video over vital signs, because that is what we would be practicing today in the hospital. From there we got into our clinical groups for our meetings. In mine we just went over out patient information and talked about how to do the clinical packet. Around 10 we headed over to the hospital. My partner and I got to our room and saw that our person was doing PT, so the four of us walked up and down the hallway and we got to learn a little bit about our patient. Sadly that's all i got to do that day because when my partner and I went to talk to our instructor, my partner blacked out and then couldn't see out of one eye, and got a huge migraine. I did get to take her blood pressure, but she had to sit down the rest of the time and I had to sit with her. My instructor gave me a paper that would help with information collecting for next Tuesday, so i spent the rest of the time filling that out. Around 12 we went to lunch, then met back with our group until 1:30. After that was over, i met up with Morgan and we headed back to the apartment before our Ethics class. I would tell you about Ethics, but there is nothing much to talk about. Now to the great part about Wednesday. Morgan and I were really craving Chipotle, so after Ethics we went and bought some for dinner. Right before Ethics class, Morgan and I stopped at the Red Box at CVS across the street and we rented the movie Soul Surfer. If you have not seen that movie, i recommend you do because it is a powerful movie. That night Morgan and I ate yummy Chipotle and watched a great movie. Perfect way to end a long busy day!
Thursday
On Thursday, Morgan and I got a head start on our Ethics homework. We got that all finished before we went to Biology at 1:30. I love getting my homework done ahead of time, because then I do not have to worry about it right before it is due. Such a great feeling. We went to boring Biology (ha ha) and we took notes again and did another lab using the microscopes. I do not have much to say about Biology because nothing happened in that class to tell about. After Bio, I really do not remember what Morgan and I did, other then homework...UNTIL....Bailey came over!! =) She came after she had dinner and stayed until almost 12! We had so much fun hanging out and talking and joking (about Halloween). We were trying to figure out if we needed candy at the apartment in case little kids came dressed up trick or treating. Then other thoughts came up about Halloween and it was just funny to talk about. We basically spent the evening laughing until our stomachs hurt. The three of us also played Sequence twice, and I officially am a loser and did not win at all. Bailey won the first round and Morgan won the second round. The evening ended well and Bailey left around 11:30 to head home. Morgan stayed up until 1:30 that night to finish reading the chapter 36 on nutrition in our nursing book. I went straight to bed.
Friday (the fun day)
Morgan and I woke up early to go to our Nursing 120 class where we finished taking notes over Vital Signs.That took 1 hour and 20 minutes. Nothing exciting happened in that class so I will move on to the interesting parts of the day. Morgan and I got back to the apartment and looked in the cabinets to find some lunch. Ugh...nothing. We recently went shopping for snack foods for packing lunch, but we did not have anything for dinner foods or hot meal foods. We needed to go shopping. We had not gone food shopping for more than two weeks. We made a list, and looked through our recipe book for things we wanted to make. After making our list, we headed to the closest Wal-mart and spent a wallet breaking amount of $74. Yikes!! For a college student that is hard!! I admit, i worry about money and so does Morgan, but we both know that God WILL provide for us in every single way. So after we both talked about that, we stopped worrying about it. (We still didn't get all the things on our list, so we will make a trip to aldi on Sunday). We headed back to the apartment just in time as Bailey got there. We planned for a Friday Study day. Bailey had just gotten back from the Urgent Care center at the hospital, and the doctor told her that she needed to drink a gallon of water each day until her infection went away. So all day she sat in the living room drinking glass after glass of water, and getting up every five minutes to use the bathroom. We found that funny, and so did she. Sam finally got to the apartment and we all got busy doing homework. We started with an online quiz for Nursing 120, and then after that Sam had to head home to see her Aunt. Since Morgan decided to be an overachiever, she had already read chapter 36. Bailey and I spend more than two hours reading the chapter, but we had a good method for doing it. I split the chapter into three sections. Seven pages in each section. After each section we read we would take a 15 minute break. This helped us so we would not get overwhelmed. During one of the breaks while Morgan was in the shower, Bailey and I had to walk over to CVS to go get her prescription. It was going to take 15 minutes, so Bailey and I decided we would finish reading and then come back for it. On our way out, we passes the rows of candy and chocolate. We needed it!! We got back to the apartment and finished up reading the chapter and doing the work sheets. Then the three of us walked back out into the 50 degree weather to go to CVS and pick up the prescription. Yes, we did buy chocolate before we left. But it was 2 for $3 so we really had to do it. And when they say 2 for 3, they mean it. No tax! So when we got back to the apartment, we began our Evolve case study that was apart of our homework. That was easy enough and now we had the rest of the night to do what ever we wanted to do! Morgan and I watched Survivor on CBS.com while Bailey Skyped with her cousin Evan. Morgan and i went in there after Survivor was over and Skyped with them =) he is a funny kid. By the time that was done, it was probably 12 already. Bailey and I started taking pictures, and then we played Rummy. I taught her how to play =) that was fun. By this time though, i was VERY tired. Bailey decided she would stay the night, so she slept on the couch. It was like 1 by the time we all went to bed. It was a very fun day. Today should be a great day too, especially because we have no homework that needs to be done.
This was a long entry, it is now 11:05 and i have been sitting her a long time. i don't really want to spell check right now, but i will go back and do it later I PROMISE!! i just need a break right now, and i know everyone is really wanting to hear what we have been up to!
Have a good day everyone =]

SUCH A WONDERFUL DAY!
Today was a wonderful day in lives of Morgan and Jaimee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So now I will tell you why! First of all I would like to start with last night when Jaimee and I arrived in Richmond. After I dropped Jaimee off at her house I headed to my house and then I went out to dinner with my family and Jaimee did the same. Both of us went to Buffalo Wild Wings because that’s what we had been craving for a while now! haha chicken is too expensive for us to buy! We have to use our money wisely :) I know I had a wonderful time with my family and I'm sure Jaimee did too. After eating my family went to Dairy Queen and got crunch cones in a cup! A family favorite :) As for Jaimee, she went home and watched a movie with her dad. Both of us had a late night and didn’t get enough sleep but that was okay because we were super excited to go to church in the morning! I picked Jaimee up around 8:40 this morning and we were on our way! When we got to church we were greeted by so many people that we love! We told everyone how college is going for us and all the other stuff that has to do with being a college student. Going to church today was amazing! We knew all the people, songs, and were familiar with how the service was going to go. Finding a church in Cincinnati has probably been the hardest thing for Jaimee and me. We love the church in Richmond so much, so it has been hard to find one that can compare to it. We don't know anyone at the churches we have been going to and they are so big that no one has really reached out to greet us. Please pray that we are able to find a church that we feel comfortable at and that we can find a college group that we can get involved in. Since almost all our classmates are older adults it is hard to make friendships. That's why we need some sort of college group at a church! Anyways, after church Jaimee and I headed to Wal-Mart to pick up some groceries we needed, and we brought Sadie along with us! It was so great to see her again; we have missed her a lot!! After that, we headed back to the church and Jaimee went to lunch with the Allen’s and I went to lunch with the Harrington’s and Mrs. Deckard. Jaimee went to Frisch’s and I went to El Rodeo. After lunch I went back to the Harrington house and got to spend some time with Mrs. Harrington :) It was fun to tell her about my experiences in college and everything that has been going on in my busy life! The time I got to spend with her was such a blessing to me :) I then went to Glen Miller Park to meet up with Jaimee so we could go to my family reunion. There I got to see my grandparents that live in Kentucky and some other family members of mine! It was great to see everyone again! After being there about an hour we left and headed back to my house. We watched an episode of Criminal Minds and then got in my car to head back to Cincinnati! When we got back we unloaded all of our stuff and then began doing homework. We have a class at 7:30 tomorrow :/ so we will be getting to bed soon! Today was a great day! We are so happy we got to see everyone at church! I would name all these amazing people but I’m afraid I would forget someone! Well that is all until next time! Thanks for reading!

Our First Exam!!
So, nothing very interesting has been happening around these parts lately. Although just yesterday, Morgan and I took our very first exam in our Nursing 120 class. That was super stressful! We both did fine on it, but next time I am going to plan on studying more than just the night before.
I did pick up my new glasses from the eye doctor on Thursday, and i really like them. They make me look like i am an actual college person =)
I am trying to think of important things that have happened to us, but it kinda has just been a regular boring week full of homework. Oh, here is something exciting to talk about. On Tuesday, Morgan and I went to ethics and we had two quizzes to take. The first one was and individual test on Scan-tron. The second was the same quiz except we could take it in groups of three or four. Morgan and I both got 100% on the single and partner quiz. We were the only two out of both classes! That's exciting right?!?!
Today is just going to be a homework day for us. We are going to get as much done so that the week can be more enjoyable for us. This evening we do plan on heading back to Richmond because Morgan's family reunion is going on, and plus Morgan needs to get her tire fixed. It has been leaking air. We are going to go to church in Richmond and see all the wonderful people we have been missing as well! Right as soon as i get back into Richmond, my dad says he is taking me to Buffalo Wild Wings, which i have been craving for a while. I am excited for that.
Another not so fun thing happened yesterday. Morgan and I got to pay our very first bill. It was for the internet. BLAH!! Still have to pay the electric one, but that's not due till the 19th so we probably will wait for that one.
I can't think of anything else to tell you about. But I promise when something exciting happens, you will know about it.

Life at Grove City College on Labor Day
Hello our dear readers of this very entertaining blog! (we really hope you are enjoying reading this bog.)
So as most of you know, Morgan and I made a very quick, sudden, immediate, spur of the moment decision to go to visit Ben Taylor and Molly at Grove City College. We had such a great day! We really didn't do very much, but it was just fun to see the people we haden't in a while. The day began with Morgan and myself waking up and getting ready for the day. When we were ready, Ben and Taylor were already waiting for us outside the building. We first walked around outside. (it was super gray and wet and sprinkling outside.) We went into a building where a bunch of football players were. Let me tell you, not being a grove city civilian it was awkward walking into there and having all the football players look at you as if you were in the wrong place. Leaving that building, we went over to a building that had all the gyms and courts and swimming pools. After that we walked around the campus some and then walked to the rainbow bridge where Grove City lovers propose to their girlfriends in the spring. They call it “Ring by Spring” We left from there to head over to ked rec, but before we got there, we stopped at the boys dorms and Taylor and Ben ran in to get a deck of cards. Now is the part where we got to ked rec and the four of us played kemps for a while. After kemps, Ben went to go get his coolio Grove City laptop. Morgan and Ben then went to another table to do stuff on the computer, while Taylor and I played a few rounds of speed. Taylor then decided he would teach me how to play Rummy!! After a few rounds of loosing, I finally caught on to the game and had a long round of wins! It frustrated Taylor to no end that I am so amazing at Rummy! When we finished playing Rummy, the four of us went over and played Foosball. Morgan and Ben won. After that we again walked back to the boys dorm building. It was 11 by then so Morgan and Ben chose to go to lunch off campus and I got to use Ben's lunch card to get lunch with Taylor. We called Molly and had her meet us there. Taylor and I found a seat and then Molly showed up. We got food and sat back down. We talked about Taylor getting a girls number ;) and just talked about college classes and stuff. We then got up (Molly and I) to get some peach smoothies. They were actually really good. Finally we thought it was time to leave. While we were grabbing our trays, I accidentally knocked Molly's half empty smoothie cup over and it spilled all over the place =( Taylor told me that no one had ever spilled anything before at GCC but I knew that he was lying. We then left there and headed to get my laptop so I could charge it. Molly went back to her room, and Taylor and I walked over to his building to sit in the lobby. Meanwhile, Morgan and Ben went to lunch at Pamani brothers, but accidentally went to a wrong exit. They had to find the next exit which was ten miles away. They finally got to the restaurant where they would have lunch. It took them forever to get their food so they ended up getting a free root beer float and Ben got the military discount. That's cool right?? After their lunch they went to Old Navy and Ben bought some jeans. Then the two headed back to GCC. While there were doing all this, Taylor and I were playing on his iPad and he was telling me how COOL my PC laptop was and how jealous he was =) The whole day, Taylor was looking for something “blog worthy” to do so I would write it in here. He told me we should do a video blog. Sadly we did, and it was weird and embarrassing to talk to an iPad. So he got flustered when he was the only one talking lol. I just kinda laughed a lot and told him he was being silly. Then, I don't remember how, but we brought up the 7th harry potter book and Taylor went to look for the 7th book so we could read the last chapter. He couldn't find it which was disappointing. Then we wanted to go play racquetball, we were so excited to play, but when we walked all the way there it was closed and we couldn't find anyone there to help us out. So, Again we walked back to the building we were just at. We found a new seat because our previous place was taken. This time we had the idea to build a card tower. This would be fun because neither one of us had ever done it. We tried and tried and tired, but we couldn't do it. The cards were really slippery. So from there we listened to the amazing Adam Young (owl city) and played more Rummy. I am such a winner at that game, let me tell you! Soon, molly texted me telling me that she wanted to hang out, just as i saw Morgan and Ben got back. I went with Molly to her dorm room. While I was gone, Morgan and Ben went on a walk down to the Rainbow Bride, took pictures and had some good conversation time. After they were done with that they went back and got poor lonely Taylor. They played cards games: 31 and Egyptian Rat screw. While this was going on, I was in molly's dorm with her and her room mate Leah. We listened to Taylor Swift, talked, and looked at things on pinterest. We had a good time in there hanging out! I love Molly so much =) (let me tell you, Morgan and I are so thankful for getting to know the Harrington family! Molly, Emily, Ben and Ross are such amazing people to spend time with and I am thankful for them.) It was about 5:40 at this point. We got our stuff and put it in my car and said our goodbyes. Right before that we took some group pictures. Then we all hugged goodbye and we were on our way out of GCC. Before we actually got on the road we had to stop for food and gas at sheetz. Then we had to go to walmart for me to use the potty and buy some tape to tape the tiny area in my window that whistled from the wind. Finally we were heading home at 6 pm. Morgans turn to drive!
I am riding in the car typing this out and at this moment we are an hour from the apartment. We are both tired. I will upload this when I get back, but for now, Goodnight wonderful people =)

Pennsylvania bound in a split decision!!
Today was soo great! Morgan and I got the chance to sleep in which was so nice, and very much needed. We got ready for church, we went to the Christ Church because we were running so late and they have service at 11. We even made it there 15 minutes late =/ but the service and music was good, we enjoyed it. It was rainy today which was a big bummer, and i got soaking wet as i ran out to my car after chuch was over.
We got home and sat around in Morgan's room talking and planning our dream weddings. I really do not know how we got onto that topic at all, but it was fun to talk about and imagine it. Finally we decided we needed some food in our tummys, so morgan made some yummy chicken salad. We got drinks and our food and sat in the living room watching a movie called Bridesmade Revenge. It was a chick flick but it was SO funny. We laughed alot. After that we sat around thinking about what we were going to do about the fireworks because it would be so crowded and rainey both. We didnt want to go and not have a fun time. So we decided against going to Riverfest =/
"we should go to Grove City" I said just messing around at first. After sitting around thinking about it we just grew fonder of the idea. It would be so fun! Finally we just acted. We called Molly to see if we could have a place to sleep and she said yes! we worked out the plans and decided that we would just surprise the two boys. We got our stuff packed and went on our way about 5:30. After 5 miserable long tiresom hours, we finally got here. I was so tired but excited too. Morgan made a plan to call ben and tell him it was urgent and he needed to be outside of his hall so they could talk privatly. He fell for it. When he came out we walked over and surprise him =) he was so happy. Him and morgan hugged for a while, and then i plotted to get taylor out there and scare him. I called taylor and made up some story that ben couldnt reach him and needed him outside. he thought ben was gonna trick him. He walks out and morgan and I jump out and scare him!! His reaction was GREAT!!
We walked around with the boys places and met up with molly. Finally we got back to Mollys hall to put our stuff away. Im still in here but morgan is our with ben and taylor still. Im so tired, im gonna go to bed right after this. It was such a good surprise for us to do! =) we had fun.
Welll Good Night

Coney Island!
Last night in the apartment was miserable.. It was so hot. We even turned the air on but it did not cool down the apartment fast enough. The only room the was bearable to be in was the living room. Jaimee was finally able to go to sleep in her bed but not me. I have the back bedroom so pretty much it was the hottest room in the apartment. I tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep. So i went to the bathroom put cold water all over my legs and arms and went and made a bed on the living room chair. I was finally able to sleep with 2 fans blowing on me and no blanket. When I woke up I was super sore from sleeping on a chair but oh well. Jaimee and I didnt do much in the beginning of the day. We sat around doing homework. Then Bailey texted us and asked if we wanted to go to the Coney Island waterpark. Of course we wanted to go so we began to get ready. We drove to where Bailey is staying and loaded up in her car and soon we were on our way. It took us about 15 minutes to get there. When we arrieved we waited until 4 to buy our tickets because they would be at a lower price. It was so hot today! It reached 105 degrees, so it was the perfect day for the waterpark. Jaimee and i got a locker and Bailey and Tim went their seperate way. Jaimee and I rode a water slide! It was sooo fun but the line was sooo long. After that we got in the pool and we decided to race eachother to the otherside. It was a very long swim but I ended up winning:) We stayed on that side for a while just swimming around and trying to go down and touch the bottom. Then we decided to race back to the otherside. On our way over there we both ran into someone. haha I barely ran into this lady but Jaimee ran into the big man. It was funny! Once again I won and we just sat at the edge talking for a while. Soon Bailey and tim came up behind us and tried to scare us. Well Tim scared Jaimee by grabbing her legs but Bailey failed at scaring me because my legs were up against the wall. Then we decided to get out and we stood in the sun for a while. While we were standing there we saw a old man in a speedo with tall socks and tennis shoes on.. gezzz the things you see at a waterpark. After going off the diving board again we decided it was time to leave. We got dried off and headed back. After we got back to my car, Jaimee and I decided we wanted to get a frosty form Wendy's :) They were so good! Now we are at the apartment and once again its hot.. Ugh I can't handle another night like last night. We turned the air conditioner on so hopefully by the time we go to bed it wont be so hot. Tomorrow will be a very eventful day!!!!!!!! WE ARE SOOOOOOO EXCITED!!! Riverfest here we come!!!! WOOOO HOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

"do you got a boyfriend?"
Oh today, Friday, the day Morgan and I headed back to our boring hometown Richmond for the first time in three weeks. But first, i must immediately tell you about the things that happened before we left to head back.
I woke up about 7:40 and started to get ready for the day. I got all my laundry together and my back pack and other things i needed to put into my car. I headed outside with my handy pepper spray right along with me. After i put all my things into my car and lock up, i start walking back but for some reason i glance back and saw a boy my age walking on the other side of the street. I look away and keep walking but that doesn't stop him from calling out "HEY! Do you got a boy friend!" i replied with a quick "yes i do" hoping he wouldn't head over to where i was standing. Unfortunately he didn't hear me and asked again even louder. I replied even louder with a "YES I DO." "Oh" was all he replied and he walked away.
That was really really really really really really really really really STRANGE! i have never in my whole 18 years of existence ever come across a human being who blurts out the first time he speaks to me, "do you got a boyfriend?" I was totally perplexed. I mean, yes, it was very scary, and i was holding my pepper spray in preparation in case he became bold and came closer to me, but i was just amazed at the up front question.
I immediately go back inside and tell Morgan all about what happened and she replies saying "you cant go outside alone!!" and i said back "it was daylight, and i had my pepper spray! I DIDN'T KNOW!" Anyways, after we talked about it some more, we hurried up and got the rest of the stuff into the car so we could head to our class at 9:00.
Nothing really happened in that class, but it was over in 1 hour and 20 minutes. We got back to the parking garage and soon were on the way back to Richmond. We got back at like 12:20 and soon split up to get things done for the day. Morgan went to spend time with the Amazing Harrington Family (some of them) and I ate lunch and went to get my tires replaced. Most of the day i spent doing laundry and such, but it was good to see my brother and my dad again. We had dinner together and then as my last load of laundry finished and my uniform was ironed, it was time to head back. I loaded the car again and i said goodbye to my brother (who is now taller then i am) and my dad (who is starting to get sick =[ ) Then i was off to Morgans house to pick her up. We finally left and started our 1h and 30min drive back. Around 11:15 we got back and carried all our stuff inside in one trip. (it was so heavy)
The apartment was HOT!! UGH so we turned on the air and now finally it is beginning to cool down! That is about it for today, unless something weird happens later tonight, but if that happens I will be sure to let all our fantastic readers know!!
Goodnight everyone, and Happy Labor Day weekend!!
