Warning!

As I'm sure you know, last night was a night of tornado warnings!  My first real storm away from my mom! Yikes!  I actually stayed in bed the entire time, no hiding under beds, closets, bathtubs.. nope.. I was a big girl! :)  But, the real threat for a tornado was today.. and I regret to inform you that a tragic, devastating twister hit the 8th floor of Pomfret.  

Horrific Destruction! 

Ooookay, so actually I just really need to do laundry!  But let me tell you, laundry is an ordeal when you live with 800 people and share 10 washers (you're lucky if 8 of them are working at a time).  I don't have to be in a high math class to figure out that's 1 washer for every 100 people.  I sure do hate dealing with the laundry crowd so I always seem to let it get this way.  But hey! It's only spread out like this because I have organized it by loads and first thing in the morning I will be washing clothes!  

Since moving to Fayetteville, I have found an awesome church--Cross Church Fayetteville!  Tonight we had an AWESOME lesson on our marriage study.  But I think my favorite part of the service was a song we sang before closing.  God really spoke to me through this song and I would like to share it with you!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GT1LWYVnBVw I hope you love it as much as I do!  
"There will be no one like You, and no one beside You.  
You alone are worthy of ALL praise!"

My mom called today and told me we are officially registered to go to Europe next spring break! Woo! Last spring break I went all over Greece and to Rome and had the absolute best time!  I fell in love with Europe and probably wouldn't have gotten on the plane to come home if that would've been an option, so needless to say I am ECSTATIC to go back!  This trip we are going to Vienna, Venice, and Paris!  AHHH!!! I am just too excited! I really don't want to wait a whole year!  In the mean time, I'm going to look forward to this spring break which is in 3 WEEKS!  Yessss!!!!!  I'm going camping at Cloud 9 four wheeler ranch!  I haven't ever been, but my mom always tells me how much fun it is!

Speaking of mom, she's coming this weekend! Yay! I haven't seen here since Christmas break so it is time!  And with mom's arrival is the arrival of my scooter! Alan bought me a scooter for Christmas so I wouldn't have to hike up the hill; I didn't bring it because it's winter, and I was expecting winter to be too cold to ride.  Well, I was wrong and I can't wait to have it!  When I tell people I have a scooter, most of them say, "Can you drive it?!" Haha, good question.  I will say that I am much better than I was the first night I got it, but I should probably drive it around the parking lot a few times before I go scooting through campus traffic!    

I know there are some people who just click on the link to my blog from Facebook or Twitter and maybe don't know me that well. So, I'm going to start telling you one random thing about myself on each blog.  I thought of this first one as I was talking about my scooter. I love motorcycles! My Dad used to have one and I loved to ride!! I think my favorite part is riding on a nice day and doing the motorcycle 'wave' to all the other bikes you pass.. it makes me feel real cool! ;)

I think that's about it!  Tomorrow is Thursday which means I don't have class until 1:30, but I'm gonna set my alarm for earlier than normal so I can do laundry! Blah!

Oh!! One more thing! Be sure to check out Alex's blog, too! arisaacs.blogspot.com

Hope you are having a fabulous week!
