Birthweek and Homecomming

My birthday was pretty much amazing! I was SO overly excited about it this year - I think that's because I haven't been able to get excited about my birthday since my 16th (because I didn't do anything for my 17th, and I didn't have close college friends to celebrate with for my 18th), so it was long overdue.

My family came on Monday to celebrate with me. We went out to Olive Garden, and they brought brownies for my floor for Wednesday. It was really, really nice! On Tuesday night, I was out of my room for a long time because there was a soccer game, and when I came back to my room, my friends had decorated it with crepe paper... alllll over!! It made me feel SO loved!! At midnight I got about a million "Happy Birthday's" from the girls on my floor. I thought that Wednesday (my actual Birthday) was going to be horrible because Wednesdays are my busiest days... and I had packed it even more full with meetings and such. But the Lord was watching out for me, and all of my meetings went SO smoothly, and got out on time so I was on perfect time for my next meeting. Sam and I got lost looking for Party City, which was a ton of fun... and when we got back we had brownies with my dorm!! What a perfect birthday!!

Thursday was my very first event as Social Life Director!! We had a Glow in the Dark Sports night in the VAC. It went SO WELL!!!! We had about 120 people show up, which was over our goal of 100, and there were people who didn't even want to leave after we turned the lights back on. People loved the pizza and glow sticks and glow volleyball, soccer, basketball, and frizbee. It was awesome!!

Yesterday was my second event as Social Life Director - and it went VERY VERY VERY well!!!!!! It was a variety/talent show in Hale that we have every semester called LIVE. The pressure was on to make it a good show, because LIVE last semester was pretty awesome. Julia, the Student Association President, told me after the show that this was the best LIVE that they've had in years, and we had the best hosts that we've ever had! Sam took me out to Java's after the show to celebrate, which was just perfect!

So, basically, this week was pretty amazing. And now it's the weekend, which means I get to finally sleep!! How exciting! Why I'm not sleeping right now, I don't know. lol
