This is the view from the door. If you can't see the beginning of my name the side on the right is mine:)
Our closets. I am the left in this picture.
I don't know why but this corner of the room makes me feel like the most legit college student ever. The fridge, microwave and all the little snacks. I love it :)
This is the sink and microfridge shelf.
My corner. Got to have the hawk football poster!
This is under my loft. This is my favorite part of the room. I love all the smiling faces that surround me.
This our futon. Not very exciting but I figured I would put a pic up anyway :)
My bed. I for sure need an egg crate for the mattress :)
This is right in front of my desk. Whenever I look up from my computer I see my friends and family.
My dresser. I love the letters sess made for me. Also the jewelry hanging thing (I don't know the proper name for it) was a great find of my mommy's. I don't know what I would have done with out that!
So.. That's it. I hope you like it as much as I do. I am going to try to update this blog as much as possible. We will see how that goes when classes actually start! I will try my hardest!
On Iowa! has been a blast. Well, except for today. Today we sat through discussions all.. boring as all get out! However yesterday was awesome! We got to go to the kick off in Historic Kinnick Stadium. We got there and ate some nasty food, but that's ok because the rest of the night made up for that! We got to go on the field. The field where the Hawkeyes play? Yeah that one! AAAHHH!! I was freaking out! Well, inside at least. So we played some icebreakers. Yup, all 4,500 of us. We filled that field almost. Some were pretty awkward. Like dancing with your back to some guy's back that you don't know with your arms linked together. Yeah, I will for sure not forget that :) It was fun though. Then the band came on (sorry I don't know their name). They formed an I and we filled it in. It was so cool looking I will post the video below. Then we sat down in the bleachers where we learned Hawkeye traditions. The band played and we listened to speakers. The speakers were Dan Gable the awesome retired wrestling coach from Iowa and a professor that was really cool, but I forgot his name. Whoops! Then we were the first ever people to see fireworks in Kinnick. It was amazing! I took pictures but they are on my phone which is not working as of right now. I will upload them when I can.
Prayer Requests:
~I would stay strong in my faith. I know college can be a really hard time on kids' faith and I want to hold on to it.
~My phone problem would get fixed. It really has been good to not have my phone. I am not as attached to it anymore. I have probably met more people because I didn't have anything to distract me in awkward situations. It really has been a blessing in disguise.
~I would meet really cool christian girls and get plugged into an awesome ministry!
Thank you so much for reading and praying! I love and miss you all!
Here is the video of us doing the I-
