i've been slacking...

but some exciting news that i want yall to keep your fingers crossed for me
I had an interview at Children's medical hospital and it was really good. I had applied for this job literally like right after graduation and just heard back from the lady like a week ago. So i had all but given up on that but she scheduled an interview-- that was yesterday. Sorry megs this is gonna be kinda repetetive for you since i already filled you in. but i suprisingly wasnt nervous at all?! the lady was really nice and easy to talk too. downer is they have been taking applications for this position since APRIL!! wtf!! so who knows how many ppl i'm up against, but they have had interviews all week long since monday, and after today i guess will start to narrow it down and then make recommendations to HR. So i wont know if i get the job for another 2-3 weeks... im gonna die haha. but the hospital is so awesome- like i wanna work there for the rest of my life haha and the job sounds super cool, it'd only be part time so like 3 or 4 shifts a week, its in the psych unit, and the lady said 75% of their patients are kids with eating disorders and the rest are like the bipolar or depressed or your other disorders. and they like do all these activities with the kids to get them back on track, and then also educate the families on the disorders and i dunno, i just was really excited about the future and what i want to be doing again once i left the hospital. it sounds right up my alley, and best part is... id get to wear scrubs to work! haha :) she said that the other Milieu Therapists ( which is what i applied for )there are in grad school or like using this as a good experience type job, which would be perfect to cause thats kinda the boat i wanna be in now too. so i'm hoping that my waiting for something good to come along has finally paid off and this will work out, but i'm not gonna get too hopeful incase this idea back fires on me.

di-- im glad you found a job, i can see you being quite the leader too hahaha thats funny they said that, but still awesome. oh my mom said mr and mrs holbrook came into the vets office she works at and kourts dad looked good, just seemed to be taking things a little slower.
kath-- i need to hear more from you, i miss you dearly and can't wait to see you and catch up on everything at homecoming
meg-- im glad i have you close to keep me sane, i hate not having everyone around to see whenever i want... lol lets seriously do an alum club soon...?

anyways i hope you girls have a great weekend!LOVE YOU ALL~!~!~!

update

8th graders carry awful germs that make me very sick! :(

Hey lovely ladies,

I am currently sitting in bed sick as a dog about to watch GREYS. I have been sick all week from thise lovely kiddos of mine..but im trying to not miss school so work and being sick has made for not a very fun week.. Elaine im so glad cali was fun i want to go with you next time i love it there. Diana im jealous you went to waco..speaking of football tailgaiting is supposedly so much better now..you can actually have beer not just in the georges tent. Annie said it was so fun.. I hope the team gets better. I cant express how excited I am for homecoming..this past weekend was my first weekend home in a while..we went to amarillo for labor day and then to chicago which was aboslutely amazing. I finaly met jeffs sister and brother in law they were soo sweet! I wish yall were here because this past weekend was oktober fest in addison where jeffrey leaves and we definately got drunk on a saturday afternoon..i got to see laura marchesanni and meet her boy! He seems super nice we had a great time hanging out and catching up..I guess youve all heard amy is getting married in march elaine & I are going to be brides maides with the rest of the kappa klan so pray for us! lol and di face about the nurse practiner thats what jeffreys dad does.. he does it for a neurosurgeon im sure if you wanted some advice or anything like that he would be more than happy to help you. He loves his job and has all the perks..when i went and watched surgery he did more than the doctor. Kath good luck this weekend with lsat i know your going to rock its socks off..i cannot wait to come see the apartment im trying to make a trip to houston before homecoming.. speaking of homecoming we are all meeting at georges friday night the 23 right..J park i miss yous o much and love all your texts keep them coming take care of my annie.. and please enjoy every minute you get in waco..

As for my job well it is going great I really love it..

They also think you girls are pretty hot because your all on my about me bored :) i cant explain how much i do not living at home but its saving me so much money so thats great! plus my mom does not care waht i do..i jsut really wnat my own place and i actualy still have things in boxes in the garage.. well this is super looonnng but i guess ive been kinda sad this week, but very grateful to know that I will have you guys as my friends forever..

wishing we still lived minutes apart,

Ms. Marshall aka Megan lol

hey! good job laney u reminded me to blog

very cool u went to cali elaine! im jealous. that sounds so fun. so this past weekend i went to waco and got to see jen, kourt, mel, grace, kyle, and many more. it was so fun. and just like old times i didnt go to the game! haha i hate going to football games unless i have a beer in hand. but i went to crickets and kourt had a party which was super fun. so last friday i had an interview with an eye doctor place in kingwood and it went sooo well finally. they were so complimentary of my lack of experience haha and were thrilled about how "qualified" i was. they even said "we can see you being a leader!" so hopefully i get it. if i don't i know it is because they don't know how long i will want to be here in kingwood.
also i shadowed a nurse practitioner yesterday which was really cool. he works at memorial hermann in the medical center as a gi specialist. it was sad, but also really cool to see all the patients and diagnoses. but it was interesting because aparently nurse practitioners are the same as PAs as far as duties go. which is cool so i am going to talk to a nursing advisor and see if i have all the prereqs for a fast track program which is a year and then go to grad school after to get a nurse practitioner degree. that would be sweet then i wouldnt have to wati another year if i dont get into pa school this year.
still sad about me and the beaux breaking up. we miss eachother, but weren't willing to do the distance thing anymore.
anyways, over and out!
miss you.

Hello Lovlies

So not much has changed around my neck of the woods. I am doing this "nannying" job for these hilarious little boys- ones in 5th grade (reagan) and the others in 7th (ryan). I pretty much just pick em up from school and do their homework and then we play wii haha. i'm actually doing this blog right now while i'm at their house cause they are playing x box so i get bored. but thats about the extent of my out of the house outings. haha not really but kinda. so since thats just kinda after school hours i'm still looking for a part time job in the AM to make some more money in the mean time.
I miss you guys like crazy. I so miss even just sushi and couch company watching our shows, beats the heck out of doing it alone or worse.... with the parentals!!! ahhh. they are sweet as pie but its just not the same at all...
I hadn't seen Jared in over a month, since his bday in August and they've had a lot of family problems and his mom and step dad split up so he was having a hard time with that and been kinda down about work, even tho TOMS is awesome. So I planned a last minute trip and went out there this weekend and just got back this afternoon. it was just a short little 3 1/2 day thing (since i had to pick up the boys still the rest of this week) but it was good to see him, long distance succckkkkssss. I know you are probably sick of me talking about California, but thats the only interesting thing I really ever have to write about. lol --> so since it was such a short trip we crammed in a lot of things and i can't wait to go home and take a nap later. but we went to the santa monica beach ( hes like 15 mins from there) meet his roomies and all the other girl interns. I was kinda worried about them before/ just cause i didnt know what they were like not that i was worried sweet little jared would do anything but they all spend a lot of time together soo it was good to see that they were no competition or concern anymore lol. but anyways we went and had drinks with them the first night and it was also his sisters bday so we had a family party that sunday, monday jared took off work and we just hung out on the pier and ate at some really cool restaurants, and he tooke me to see TOMS headquarters and Blake's desk (the founder). I probably wasnt supposed to see but one of the people had shoes out on her desk of the new lines they are bout to start selling online. so that was really cool. i also got to see ashley laws :) shes still out in LA for the rest of the month but she just finished fashion design school and is moving back home once her lease is up-- just like the rest of us haha. but we went and had din with her and she said she always sees celebrtities and has even met a few it was cool to hear her talkin about some of it. shes so funny about how she tells stories. made me miss our group dinners after meetings when the older girls were still there.
Anywho nothing to exciting up and coming for this little girl, but kath-- i hope your all settled in to your new place.. post some pics so we can see the new pad!! lol. meg-- weekly dinner soon, if not we still need to get our dresses sized this weekend and i am excited for jay and noes fball game. and di-- i miss you and am sad i couldnt make the waco trip with you this past weekend. maybe another time! kourt hope your doing well with grad school, i have no doubt that you are! hope yall are doing good!! love ya

-- Elaine --

I am sounding more and more like a mom everyday...

Hey girls!!

Ok so I think I've told some of ya'll already but what better place to spread the word than on our lovely blog :) I just wanted to put in a quick prayer request for my little connorbear!

His parents have known since he was a couple months old that he has a lower immune system than most babies his age. but a few days ago he had some bloodwork done to check the amount and quality of antibodies in his system. basically antibodies are the cells that fight off infection and he has a low number of these which makes him really prone to getting sick. they've known this for a while so in these past few months that ive been working for him, we haven't been able to have any play dates with other kiddos because he can catch pretty much any little cold or flu other kids have!

ANYWAYS, his parents are most concerned because while its normal for some kids to have low antibodies, the bloodwork showed that his level is too low. they're also afraid he doesn't make any or enough T memory cells. the way kristin explained it to me is that when you are exposed to a strand of the flu you've never seen before, typically you get sick. but after that, your body recognizes that type of flu the next time you encounter it and rather than getting sick, your body fights it off becuase the T memory cells tell your body what to do. so if Connor doesn't make any/enough of those, he could get sick over and over and his body wouldn't remember how to fight off even just the common cold when he comes in contact with it. this would mean he would have to be on an IV type of treatment indefinitely (it could be just for a few months or for the rest of his life)

so if you have a minute today, send up a prayer to the big guy for connor and his parents. poor kristin is a doctor for children with allergies and immune system problems so she is well aware of how bad connor's condition could get. so just pray that the results come back promising and that he will be able to get over this little bump in the road and be a normal healthy little man :)

much love! kath

more to say

alright so i got the job in dallas for the lab support position that i've been interviewing for, but yesterday they told me it was a night shift and i am not interested in that. so i had to decline it. im pretty sad about it because i wasn't wanting to do that, but i had to.

so i'm going to start volunteering soon. i go in thursday to sign up for that. im gunna try and stay here and volunteer/shadow while working part time to get some cash.

my fam wants me to go to baton rouge because there are a couple of job openings in a hospital there, but im not too fond of doing that. plus i wouldn't be close to anyone at all. and i would have to live with my aunt and uncle. any suggestions about this? what do yall think?

kinda in a bummed mood.

But hopefully by the end of this year all the credit cards will be gone and Ill have money in savings :) any ways.. lets plan a girls weekend pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaassssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeee.... even if its just a friday night :) let me know your thoughts I have to go though bc its 1030 way past my bed time on a school night hahaha! love yall..

sorry guys. well i changed my mind about class and decided not to move to dtown this weekend. it was too much too fast and freaked me out. i had a job interview at childrens on friday tho so if i get the job and its decent pay then i will move. this way it gives me more time though. if i don't get it, i will stay at home and get a part time job while volunteering/shadowing.

love/miss you guys.

Yo from the COOOOO!

Hey everyone! I'm back in Waco and sadly missed it so much. I can't wait for grad school to start and I'm loving work. It's not bad and the coach was SO impressed with how I organized everything..he told me I needed time off! It's not the same without everyone here. I'm having one of my common parties this weekend and I want everyone to come! It's gonna be super fun!!! I start school this coming Monday!!!!! I also have an addition to my crazy cat family. Her name is Sasha, but I called her Sausage and renamed her Raja. My cousin Megan who just got married got pregnant on her honeymoon. (YAY!) You can't clean a litterbox when you're preggers and her husband hates the cat, so I took her so she wouldn't end up in the pound. They are slowly getting to love each other. I also have a roommate and love it! It's one of my BFFs from high school who I cheered with. We are both working for the track team and are in the grad program for Athletic Training. It's great. Welllll my Dad has pneumonia. It's awful. He's been pretty much sleeping for two weeks and not working, which is SO weird for my dad. His birthday was Monday and he's finally getting back into half days at work. Everyone pray for him! I can't wait for all this to happen! Yay!!!

wassssup wasssup motha fuckaaas!!!

hey hos
ok so kath i loved the blog. and elaine urs was awesome as well. sorry its been awhile. lets see last weekend i got to go to austin and see whitney for her birthday and then go to lake travis with stephen and his friends. it was so fun! well as of today i finally know whats up with the next few months or year of my life. i am going to register for classes at ut d tomorrow and class starts thursday but ill juts be late and go starting monday because i have an interview friday at childrens hospital. so if i get the job it is a 3-11 shift and i wouldnt be able to take class. in other words, ill start class and if i get the job ill quit class and take the job cuz hey money is much better than school. but i dont know. im still debating what i should do. suggestions?

so this weekend that means ill be leaving houston and moving to dallas. how weird is that. and i need to find an apartment this weekend which will be stressful and my parents won't get off my back about it. soooooooo if anyone knows of some semi nice apartments ANYWHERE in dallas that has washer/dryer etc stuff like that, please let me know.

thats about all that is going on in my life.

oh except i dyed my hair! its dark brown now and i LOVE it. u can kinda tell in the pictures from my sister's graduation.

peace out bitches

You have FOUR YEARS to be irresponsible here...

Hey girls! This blog is gunna have to be a quick one but I just wanted to say hi and let you know how much I miss all of you! Just the other day, I got a phone call from Katy Evans and it made me remember (as if i could ever forget!) how incredible our senior year was! When I moved out of the Pink Door I left a LONG note on their fridge of all the things I loved about my senior year and I encouraged them all to live it up the way we did! I ended the note by passing on our signature quote by Tom Petty. I know ya'll haven't forgotten it but I think it needs a place in the blog so here we go.

You have four years to be irresponsible here. Relax. Work is for people with jobs. You'll never remember class time, but you'll remember time you wasted hanging out with your friends. So, stay out late. Go out on a Tuesday with your friends when you have a paper due Wednesday. Spend money you don't have. Drink 'til sunrise. The work never ends, but college does.

Anyways, Katy called me the other day to tell me how much she has been thinking about all of us and the way we totally took advantage of senior year. The cutest part of the convo was when she was like "Ok Kathleen. I'm gunna try and live it up the way yall did. But I dont know if I can! Ya'll really did it all!!" I just thought it was sooo sweet and soooo true! Last year will forever be my favorite time in college and its all thanks to you girls :)

I miss ya'll!

Who wants to join me and be a bum under 35 just so we can live in Waco again?

xoxo-kath

hey lovlies!!

hey sweet girls! i'm the first one to blog in august, we are all slacking hahahaha. any ways well some exciting news. Jared finally has a job, well atleast till december, hes going to be an intern for TOMS!!! how awesome is that? he is one of 9 that got picked for this fall out of a bazillion applicants. i had to brag a little, plus can't beat a discount on toms either -- so thats pretty exciting. oh and the person he was in contact with about it was Caroline Marshall, 2007 baylor grad PLUS she was a PI PHI!! ohh dont you just love connections haha. down side my honey bunches will be in california for the rest of the year. sad sad.

i just got back from california, visitng him for his bday and we did all sorts of fun stuff, piano bar, jet skiing in the bay, beach day, zoo, shopping, and my favorite thing of the whole trip we saw WICKED!!! Now i know why megs and di are obsessed :) it was sooo cute, i'm in love with it.

on a more boring note, i'm still job hunting, and pretty much willing to take anything at this point. pathetic. i was looking into working in the office at schools but havent heard back so i just today looked at doing substitute teaching, keller isd pays 85$ a day for ppl with bachelors degrees, and that'd be bad ass hours and could still do night classes or something?! i dunno. blah. any money would be great at this point. hey so does any one else find it really weird that we aren't buying school supplies and moving into waco this week and partying the week before school...? this is lame.

wishing we were going back to baylor,
elaine

i'm a bad blogger

hey babes! its kath! i feel like ive been super mia lately and i have lots to fill you in on! just a heads up this blog is gunna be long-ish, random, and kinda choppy because connor's chillin next to me so i'm kind of having to multi-task. my life right now consists of: connor (duh), lsat stuff, trying to stay in shape, hangin out with old high school friends and all the crazy drama that seems to cause, going on a couple dates (don't get too excited haha), and getting ready to move out on SEPTEMBER 18TH!!!!! here's a little run down of everything...

connor's doing great! he's getting super big. kristin and i pretty much have weekly whine-sessions about how fast he's growing up :( still no crawling yet but he does have 2 teeth :) and he's taking his naps upstairs in his crib like a big boy! he used to only nap in his swing downstairs so he could be in all the action. i have been taking tons and tons of pictures and videos of him this summer and last week i put together a little photo album for his parents. they absolutely loved it! there are around 50 pictures in there right now but im gunna add to it little by little. besides that, he's just the same old little dude.

lsat stuff is going pretty well actually! my goal is to score in the upper 150s-160. the book im using recommended taking a practice test blind just to kind of see where you stand and i made a 151!! so hopefully that's a good sign that my mind can at least grasp what im being tested over. if i get myself motivated enough, studying for it really isn't that bad. its just hard to stay on schedule with it all but if i give up a few nights a week i can get back on track

the whole running thing has kind of fallen on the back burner. a couple weeks ago my parents suggested that all of us (minus kara of course) run the half marathon in january but all the spots were filled... dang. plus there was a mugging in connor's neighborhood a few weeks ago and so i decided to cut back on running here just because, lets face it, i could do nothing to defend myself and connor against a couple of "mean guys". (that's what we used to call criminals when we were little haha!!)

hangin out with high school friends has been good its just weird. a few of yall have met lauren and of course ya'll know kathryn. i hang out with them most of the time and thats fine but last night we were out and met up with a tonnn of girls from high school and it was just really odd how some people don't change at all and other people act like they don't even know you! yanno??

ok so here's the deal about the dates. connor's mom kristin told all her friends that i was catholic, single, and looking haha. her friends laura and joe are friends with this guy rob who's younger brother is sam. long story short, he's 25. graduated from TCU. is an accountant. went to st thomas high school where a ton of my guy friends went. he's catholic and loves sports. yadda yadda yadda. so he got my number and we talked a few times and then we went out on sunday just to meet up. things were pretty good but at the time i was like hm... are things good because i really could like this guy or are they could because a blind date could've gone sooo much worse lol. within like the first few minutes of us meeting he told me that he wasn't a dog person.... ooooh burn. lol minus 10 points already! haha jk! but cmon can ya'll really picture me with a guy who hates dogs? so i got past that and the conversation flowed pretty easily. we talked a lot about partying and crazy stories so of course yall came up in the conversation ;) so we ended up sitting at this casual little bar for like 2 hours! and then went to dinner after that. all in all it was a good meeting but i wasn't positive our personalities meshed. but when he asked me to go out again i figured i had nothing to lose yanno? and thats when things started getting kinda weird... he called to tell me where we were going and made some comment about how "i probably wouldn't like" this bar he was gunna take me to... hm... weird. and then he said "i GUESS ill pick u up.." um... buddy its a date! yes you pick me up! anyways, the phone convos before the actual date were kinda weird but i didnt wanna dwell on it. so he picked me up, met a few of the ppl at my house and handled that pretty well. but then we were heading to the car and he didn't get my door. i'm not one of those girls who HAS to have the door opened for her AT ALL but on a true date i just think that's what they should do! kinda like how they SHOULD come pick u up! anyways we got to the restraunt and he was talking about how he'd taken a fine foods/wine tasting class recently. so when we got the wine list i told him that i really didnt know what i wanted to order and asked if he would suggest something or pick something for me that he thought would be good. and he just said "no." weirddd... and then when the waitress came to take our drink orders i just said "ill have whatever he's having" and then when the waitress turned to him, without even looking up from his menu he goes "i'll have the second from the bottom". and she goes "ok. sorry from which list the red or white?" he like rolled his eyes and was like "whichever is on the first page" and so she named the wine just to double check thats what he wanted and he like interrupted her and was like "thats fine". she kinda gave me a pity look like ohhh hunny its gunna be a long dinner for you. he was seriously so rude to the waitress! but i figured i had a long date to get through so i just started asking him random questions and literally EVERYTHING that he could put a negative spin on... he did! he's going to austin this weekend with some friends but had to throw in something negative about it. he's training for a half marathon but claims that he hates to run? i talked about how much i love chicago and he just went off on how horrible their accents are. i mean seriously it was like something out of a movie! wow ok i didnt realize how long this blog was getting lol! ill try and wrap it up. basically we finished dinner and went to this bar (the one he said i wouldn't like) and met up wiht his roommate and his roommates girlfriend (who of course sam claims is a bitch and is going to screw her boyfriend over...) and then he took me home. when we parked in the drive way, yet again he goes "i GUESS ill walk you to your door"??? seriously wtf!!! haha!! he met kristen for like 2 seconds when he dropped me off and the minute he was out the door she was like "ok ... um ... no." haha

so that sums it up! sorry that was such a long post but i just couldn't that stuff out! i miss you girls soooooooooooo much and i hope ya'll are all doing well!!

its time for connors nap! i'm a bad nanny and blog while the baby's sitting right next to me... oops! haha!

i love yall!!!!

xoxo -kath

hey ladies! i'm so excited about this blog :) well here's an interesting story about how retarded i am. i'm sure you all remember that i am supposed to be taking my certification test this friday...well turns out i'm not that bright and can't even figure out how to register for the damn thing! i registered in may for the test, and figured that was it. OH NO. you have to register AGAIN...but by July 2nd...and THEN schedule a test site and date...SO RIDICULOUS! thus, i will continue to study and freak out about it until NOVEMBER when it's offered again. oh well! at least i can still go to the beach! so excited! i love you girls and had an AWESOME time this weekend! (it's pretty much the only time i went out this summer-sad i know!) but yes...i also am sick now haha...well i already was sick and finally got some drugs to get over it! yay! peace out girl scouts.

what up sweet cheeks! kathleen here!

hello pretty ladies! wow i can't believe its been so long since i blogged! honestly not too much has happened but ill fill yall in on my pretty mundane life.

chicago was pretty awesome! it was the first time though, that i was really homesick and i don't know why! i think im getting super attached to connor and i was actually missing my little daily routine with him. kelly picked me up from the airport and she and i went out downtown my first night in chicago. the rest of my family took a car to grandma's house and we met up with them the next day. i might've already told some of ya'll this story but its definitely blog worthy so ill tell it again :) most of the bars downtown close around 2 AM but there are several that stay open much later (til like 5 or so!). kelly, my cousins kathryn, shea and mark and my cousin's friend jenae and i were all out together and when we got to the "late night bar" we were all feelin pretty good. it was a really cute place and they played fun oldies music and stuff. like the type of fun music you would hear at weddings. so we were all dancing and having a good time. i was dancing with kelly and this cute girl came up and was like um my friend wants to dance with you! he seemed really cute. super tall and kind of a baby face. so we were dancing to something innocent like the twist or something. but when we were dancing a little closer he STARTED KISSING MY NECK!!!! ahhhhhhh violation!! so i pulled away a little and was letting him spin me around and then we get closer again and well... long story short. this dude was pitching a tent right there on the dance floor!!!!! no shame at all and it was freaking OBVIOUS! so i looked over at my cousins and my sister and eventually eased my way out of that situation. gross!!! haha oh and his name was ernie! which just makes the story even better!! hahaha

so yeah that was pretty much the highlight of the trip. visited a lot with my family. had some good talks about my future blah blah blah

about a week ago i registered for the LSAT. im starting to get after the studying and preparing and all so we'll see how that goes. im probably gunna look into taking the GRE or GMAT and apply to some other grad school programs in case the law thing doesn't work out. i just want to get the ball rolling so i have some options

my sisters and i are still desperately trying to move out of our house but last night we had our first meeting with my parents about it and it looks like i would be paying for everything if i did move out. and that means i wouldn't be saving hardly anything. plus my mom started talking about how once we move out...that's pretty much it. not like we wouldn't be welcome to live there again but she wouldn't be planning on it either. she would probably change my room and they're even talking about moving to a smaller house. i dont know why but all that stuff just makes me wanna curl up in a ball and cry! i hate growing up sometimes!!! especially when she started talking about how hard all of that would be on kara. ahhh... so we'll seee!!

besides that im just babysitting and trying to stay in shape as best i can. im definitely planning on going to dallas this weekend so we all must do something!!! i miss you all desperately!!!!!!! call me!

love, kafawafa

im lazy

hey girls

my weekend was awesome. stephen came into town and it was so so so so so fun. we went to dinner, went out, hung out with my friends, went on the boat, and got to see his cousin too. he loved kingwood and we had a bitchin time together. so i got a call from childrens medical center in dallas wanting me to come to an invitation only information session thurdsday. and i got a call from this lady at this plastic surgery clinic that is going to call me wednesday and wants to interview me friday. so hopefully that works out! kath might come with me to dallas or at least meet me there friday. if anybody wants to go on a party boat in dallas next saturday you are welcome! stephen is an old fart and is turning 24 so they are having a party. it will be kick ass and i highly recommend it. hmmm i guess thats all that is going on in my life at the moment. except i miss yall so much. can't wait to see everyone very soon!

diana

hello lovers

hello my faraway friends haha...

not too much exciting to update you on. but wanted to say hi :)
oh i meant to tell yall, i bought catch phrase for a party we went to on fourth of july, and its not nearly as fun or the same as when the waco crew played it. haha
jared's been visiting me this past week and a half or so. its been fun. we went to austin just a few days ago, jared had a job interview so we made a mini trip of it. not as great as i thought the trip would be, our hotel was really nice and austin seemed cool only he got a second interview which lasted the WHOLE 2nd DAY!! F*ING sucked. I had to entertain myself in austin from 8am-6pm!!!! Luckily I had the hotel till 12 but after that i literally felt homeless, i went to the outlets by myself, ikea, mailed some cards, and sat at starbucks for two hours reading and drinking coffee haha. i felt way emo. and i decided if common grounds were a city it'd be austin. jared pretty much got offered the job but didn't seem like a good fit so he turned it down. back to square one -- where i've been for quite sometime haha.
another funny story we went to burger's lake today. (MEG you ever been there? its in f.w.) and it looked really cool online and i've heard my brother talk about it before so we were bored and took my sister and one of her friends. wellll we show up and we are definitely the oldest ppl there besides the life gaurds haha. so we just got to be kids all day. it was pretty fun, they have all these slides and diving boards and a trapeze!! that go right into the lake. only my clumsy ass could not do the trapeze for the life of me. my hands were all slimey from tanning oil and i fell off onto the safety tarp below hahaha and had to crawl into the water. yeahhhh. but i mastered it by the end of the day haha. tomorrow my fam leaves for illinois for a week to go visit my mom's side of the family. and i have yet to start packing. blah. so come to think of it i'm going to go work out and get started on that. love yous guys.

Some of my fav 4th of July pics

baby?

my big (lauren peninger) is pregnant with a baby girl...how weird is that. wow! miss yall. ps the beach weekend is in 3 and a half weeks! so everyone get excited.

bob loblaw

hey dudes

can i rant for a little? i fucking hate being at home. i have no motivation to do anything and it drives me crazy. none of my friends want to go out, and it makes me fucking depressed. i cant wait to move hopefully soon with megs!

also im going to be so selfish and say i am not looking forward to my cousin's wedding this weekend. mostly because it is ruining all the july 4th plans i wanted to have with my friends. but also it's hard to be happy for someone who is getting married because i get jealous. does anybody ever feel that way? talk about miss pessimist, but hey girls gotta rant. i think weddings these days are so overdone and people forget why two people are getting married. who gives a shit about all the fucking showers, brunches, rehersal dinners... its about 2 people falling in love. i think i will elope and invite you guys and my immediate family when i want to get married. alright enough of that my aunt is here so im gunna go. i love you guys so much! please come see me in houston im miserable.

cant wait for the beach in a few weeks,
diana

LIfe is so precious

Hi sweet friends,

It seems like its been a while..wow has this been a strange week..by now we all know about emily stuller I honestly cannot grasp it. It is so weird to think that it could have been anyone of use in an instant it just makes me realize how precious everyday is..i am so blessed to have yall and love yall very much..on another note two weeks from tom is my last day of summer school I officially start my classes on monday from 7-10..i started working out again this week I went yesterday with a trainer and I am dead today he was awesome though but I cant afford him :( I ran 3 miles today and it sucked bc i was missing my running partner..i think I may do another half marathon in october but we shall see..lets see this weekend were watching fire works in addison anyone is welcome to come by jeffreys apartment! Next week I am going over my curruculum for the fall so taht will be good to kind of get an idea of what I am doing.. in august I am going to see a tribute to the beatels at bass hall and on a week vacation to florida.. then school starts :) I am trying to adjust to being really broke because it looks like finances for hte next year will be tight but I think after that I may have a grasp on it.. I need to find a new hobby becasue my current one (shopping) is a bit to exspensive...any ideas??? I miss you all so much and really want to see you maybe sept? ugh this sucks.. anyways I pray for yall constantly and love seeing what is going on in your lives..

wishing we still lived under the same roof or two minutes away,

Megan

ewww

so i've had this horrible cough for a week. i got an inhaler today hahaha. um what else, oh last night i blacked out for the first time in forever. and i got so drunk off beer! how weird is that. and i peed myself tooo. reallllll classy di. but my punishment has been being hungover literally all day. i am still sick feeling: gross. uhhh oh im going to see kath tomorrow! its gunna be fun.

im glad elaine blogged! sorry i need to post that pic asap haha.

i had a blast in dallas with elaine and megs this week. the interview i had went very well but unfortunately they arent hiring ugh. this job search is such a bitch, but i think my parents will help me if i can get a part time job and shadow/volunteer while i work part time. so if anyone knows of anything part time like ANYTHING let me know.

love,
diana

sexually frustrated

people often say that individuals who are sexually frustrated get very fidgety. for instance, a sexually frustrated individual might peel the label off her beer, tear up coasters when she's at a bar, or possibly take apart a hair rubberband. YES. you read it correctly. last night at kevin's basketball game i actually sat there for a good 20 minutes and pulled every strand of elastic out of my rubberband until there was nothing left.

needing a good makeout,
kath

this summer = not that fun

Hey lovlies...

Well I was ridiculed for only posting twice in the blog history so I figured I'd better write something again to make everyone happy. haha. only problem is that my life is not half as exciting as any of yalls at the moment. My life consists of waking up, doing some form of chores whether its cleaning/ laundry or what not, lunch break, maybe laying out (by myself :( super lame) waiting for mom and dad to get home to entertain me cause my sister is off frolicking around all day -- usually shes my source of entertainment during summer, but being 16 shes off running around everywhere these days... so once fam gets home we eat din then watch baseball and then i go for a run... then rinse lather and repeat again the next day. jealous much? haha
yesterday was a breath of fresh air though to get to hang out with megs and di face at jeff's pool/ apartment. its really nice. we met quite the characters too. haha this old lady who was loopy as hell showed up at the pool with her f-ing pet parrot, named waldo!! hah me and di held him. post the pic diana!! :)
anyways job hunt is dwindling, no prospects and i'm losing motivation, simply because theres nothing available. jen you're lucky your still in school for a little while! i may just end up going to get my masters in the spring if this keeps up.
middle of next month i'm going to visit my family in illinois, my cousins have both had babies recently so that should be fun to go play with them for a little while :) oh also jared honey is coming to visit me next week and we may go on a mini trip to austin for a weekend or something. anyways, enough rambling about my boring-ness. miss you all, can't wait for beach house trip with you bias!!

Finally kinda unpacked

Hey lovely ladies,

I am finally a little bit unpacked and this is only because I had to make room in the my bedroom for DIANA... yes DIANA is coming to see me tom! yahhhh!!! I am so excited! anyways work is going really good I really really like it! I hope it continues this way for the next year.. I hope you all had a great fathers day with your amazing dad's!! This year was actually not bad, Irving has put together a memorial park for veterans from IRving and my dads picture made the wall..it is super cool so instead of going to the sad cemetary I can go there! next time yall are here I would love to show it to yall! You will all be happy to know I have joined the pi phi alum club and Baylor womens council.. having no friends sucks i miss you all so much.. but i am trying to channel my energy into strengthening my relationship with God, being really good at my job and getting back into working out.. oh and good news i think the new car is coming very soon so if you want to see the silver bullet one last time let me know! I am sad I do not think I can make the beach trip my last day of certification classes is aug 1 and then I am leaving for a week at the beach with my family.. so im a bit dissapointed..maybe we could plan something in august??? or september to see each other..speaking of september I am going to chicago and my mom turns 60!!! so it will be a fun month.. okay last thing we all need to get tickets for the baylor football game nov 28 its at the new texas stadium.. well thats all for now keep updating i miss you all soooooo much..

a whole new level of pathetic...

i need to do something fun soon. my night last night consisted of going thru old year books with one of my friends from elementary school. we added a bunch of our old teachers on facebook... including our old pastor...please look at what he posted on my wall.

i miss ya'll
kath

yay for internet!!

woooo! i finally got up the courage to ask Kristin (Connor's Mom) if I could have the password to their wifi!! yay!! so now i can blog during the day! super exciting! miss you chicks! if you're bored during the day, get on facebook and talk to me :) ill probably leave it up 24/7 while im at connors!

girl's got skills

well my lovelys, here is the scoop. stephen calls me today and basically says he has figured all of his shit out and cut off all ties with the girl and erased her number and figured out his shit with his work. then he proceeds to tell me that he misses me and wants to start talking to me and start from square one. can u believe it.

so i of course say stephen i still need time for me and you would have to try really fucking hard. i told me that he can feel free to try to call me, but i don't know how i feel about this. so yeah, i've got my hand back. im super confused and definately won't do anything for a while or make a decision for a while but at the very least it feels good to be missed and know he isn't with that whore of a girl. by the way he said i was so much better than her which also felt good to hear. i am so confused and im glad i have this blog to update so i dont have to call 5 people with the same story lol. i love and miss you guys

greetings from hangover central

hello chicks,
diana and kath here. and we are hung over as all get out. as megan said, last night was INCREDIBLE! well... pretty incredible. it would've been better if elaine and jen were there ;) you guys would have LOVEDDDD dante our waiter! oh my gosh! so precious! and lets talk about how freakin wasted we were off of all that wine and champagne! once we dropped meg off (and note to self... don't drive after that much champagne) diana and i went to vintage and met up with claire macpherson and some of her friends. it was fun but claire treated it like med school rush for diana and we were not having that. so we left. haha! laura had told us about whiskey creek so we took a cab there. however once we were halfway there, we got a call from laura who said she was on her way to vintage... great. haha! but i really wanted to show diana whiskey creek cuz its a really fun texas type bar. when we got there, dante had told us to ask for ED his friend working at the bar! and ed ended up giving us free shots! wooo to add to the drunkness! so we stayed there for a little bit and danced with 2 boys who k]now that i think about it...might've been 18 haha! they looked like they were fresh out of high school. and so we ditched them. actually we did a lot of ditching last night haha! and we headed to vintage to see laura. vintage was pretty crowded but once we walked in, diana spotted her from a mile away cuz of her signature poof :) gotta love little marchesani. it was great to see her and meet her new boy. but she very quickly turned the night into a round of speed dating for diana and i. it was super sweet but as drunk as we were, it just wasn't gunna work. however, diana DID meet a strapping paraplegic in a wheel chair! haha we're so mean! it was sad cuz he was actually cute! or we think he was! diana said he was really nice but his friend was being mean cuz he thought diana was being rude to him. so we stayed there a little while longer and danced with each other :) and headed home pretty early. but not before swinging by the car to grab our leftovers! haha! our poor cab driver! and then he had to listen to us talk about all our boy drama all the way home!! haha! so now we're just curled up in bed and probably gunna grab lunch with my sister and head over to the pool for a relaxing afternoon :) miss ya'll!! love you!!!

wanting a free bottle of champagne at every meal,
diface and kath

Next Stop Las Vegas

I just wanted to say hi real quick before I left..last night kath and diana picked me up at the airport and we went to this coool restuaraunt in downtown houston..we had two bottles of wine and then the waiter brought us a cotton candy with a sparkler in it..ill have pictures later and then just when we thought the night couldnt get anymore perfect the manager sent us a free bottle of champaigne... so itwas good food, great service and AMAZING company.. i really wish jen and elaine had been there we really missed yall.. anyways im off to las vegas today and will be back tuesday and start work wed omg! so ill do a proper update then.. i love you all so much!


the little jet setter (hahaha),

Megan

hii

another post to add to my depressing ones. my trip was amazing. ill talk to yall later about it, you can see pics soon.

but this is about stephen. he broke up with me tonight. things have been terrible lately and i actually wrote him a note and was planning on talking to him thursday night about everything i had been feeling. apparently he had been feeling the exact same thing. but his cousin got married this weekend and thats when things were obviously wrong. long story short, he is fucked up in the head at the moment as am i. and the only thing that really really hurt me was that he is still hung up on his ex gf the one i have talked to yall about before. i hate that i am dumb about these things, but smart at the same time (only because i am always right about the guys i date). i am very sad at the moment and i probably won't be able to talk about it until i call you. kath, is it ok if i come visit this weekend? i would like that.


hurt but trying to not think about it,

diface sadface

GREAT WEEKEND Cont

Hello my loves i hope this post finds you all enjoyiong your summers. Since I last posted a lot has happend..lets see I took my test thrusday it was 130 questions covering math, science, english history and just teaching type questions so I am not quite sure how I did. I will find out sometime this week. Thrusday night i went out in downtown ft worth it was a place called VICE i went with a bunch of highschool friends it was a dancing place so di you would have loved it. Friday I layed out and got to see LANEY it was soo good..and then Jeffrey came home friday so I picked him up in the airport but then JEN & BEN got to town so I went and met them along with Jens sister at primos in uptown...it was soo fun jen and I got all caught up and it was soo great to hang out with everyone.. Satruday I got my hair done yah! lol and then the big night GEORGE STRAIT! and dont worry that i was on the 3rd row. It was awesome I made the jumbo tron, the channel 8 news and I got to be at the DALLAS COWBOYS STADIUM for the first time ever and see the roof open and stand where tony romo will play ball. It was definately a night I will NEVER forget. Then today was soo good I got to see KATH we went to lunch at Jakes in uptown with mark, noah and jeffrey it was alot of fun. AFter that we ran bunches of errands I got jeffrey an i phone for his bday so we got that all set up and then i came back to the crooked I and have been uploading pics, and doing basically nothing oh except I did get all my stuff printed for my job interview tom..so ya I have an interview tom at a middle school in Irving so please keep your fingers crossed/say a prayer.. im trying to remember that right now life may not be exactly how I want it, but it is all in GODS hands so I am just giving it all to him! I get to see diana on thrusday so that is what will get me through this week and the fact that I leave for VEGAS on saturday. I would say this week will be great because lets see I will have seen all of you and in my book that is the best thing that could possibly happen right now.. im still throwing together a reunion of some sort..what is everyones thoughts on that like dates and places.. let me know.. i guess that is all for now i miss you all dearly and am so blessed to have the 4 of you in my life!

Hello my precious girls! Right now I’m sitting at Connor’s house while he sleeps in his swing. Normally I would either be napping or reading Twilight right now but the maid is here so I feel bad sleeping. Haha! And I finished Twilight yesterday!! I meant to pick up the next one at Barnes and Noble last night but I totally forgot! Anyways… I’ve been meaning to blog again so I figured this was the best time! Unfortunately I don’t have internet here at his house so I’m just gunna post this when I get home. This week has actually been pretty eventful for us. Connor had an infection when he was 5 weeks old from an ingrown toenail (weird I know..) and I got here on Tuesday and Kristin and Brannon were freaking out because the infection looked like it was back :( poor Kristin had been crying all morning. But Connor didn’t seem to be uncomfortable. His little toes were just kinda red. So Kristin and I rushed Connor to the doctor and he told us that he was gunna try and get us in to see a foot/bone specialist later in the day. So Kristin dropped Connor and I off and she went back to work. Later, she picked us up and we went to the next doctor. He said we didn’t have anything to worry about and actually was kind of an ass to Kristin! She’s seriously so precious and right when he left she kinda looked at me and was like “ok….i think I might cry!” and so we rushed out of the office cuz she didn’t want him to see her upset. It was just sooo sad cuz she’s a doctor too! She knows what she’s talking about and Connor’s other doctor seemded concerned too! But we got Connor some antibiotics and I’m happy to say that his little toezies are perfectly fine :) haha! I cannot believe I’m actually blogging about a 6 month old’s toes… oh well! Haha!! So yesterday and today Connor and I have had a blast just kicking it at home. Kristin bought us a little plastic baby pool and he looooooves it! Its probably the closest thing to heaven I’ve gotta say! He gets all confused and splashes but scares himself a little. Its hilarious! So yeah that pretty much sums up my life. Connor. Connor’s toes. Baby pool. Wow… things have definitely changed hah! I miss you girls TONS! I’m actually taking half a day off work tomorrow to go to LONGVIEW for Matt Wright’s sister’s wedding. It should be fun but also really weird considering she’s like 20! I’m gunna try to convince Sharon to go into Dallas with me on Saturday so Megan and Elaine and whoever else might be there…LETS GO OUT!!!! I’ll keep ya’ll posted if she decides to come. What else… oh! Last night I ran memorial park WITHOUT STOPPING!! I haven’t been able to do that in a really long time! It’s only 3 miles but hopefully that’s a sign that I’m getting back in shape. It was pretty rough there for a while… haha! I think on my way home tonight I’m gunna run by Barnes and Noble and look at some books on like career counseling or maybe just some general books to help me figure out what type of masters I should get. My dad and I talked about it a lot last night (he says hi by the way ;) he asked about all of yall!) and he’s really pulling for me to look into law school which totally surprised me. But I figured I may as well consider it yanno? Obviously I wouldn’t be doing the Baylor law thing but maybe a less competitive law school could work?? Who knows! We also talked about the possibility of me going to get my masters in Social Work or getting my MBA. It’s all up in the air. Haha! Kristin’s been trying to help me come up with ideas too. I just want to know what I should do! Cuz obviously right now my passion is little kids and stuff but is that really gunna be where my heart is when I’m 40 and have 3 kids of my own?? I just don’t want to settle yanno?? WOW this blog is getting really long! Sorry but I just miss you chicks a lot!!!!!!!!!! Let me know if any of ya’ll wanna come to Houston anytime soon! Connor would love to meet some hot Baylor girls ;)
Wishing I could sleep in a baby swing…xoxo Kath

OKay so as you can see i have some time on my hands..but thats because i am sick in bed..i actually had an awful day and was bitchy to everyone i came into contact with..that was until i got on here to find that all of the people i love had blogged..it absolutely made my day.. lets see since sunday i went to church and it was about being quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to get angry its something i struggle with and am trying to work on..then jeffrey surprised me and came a day early which was nice! yesterday was super looong the whole day was spent moving into his new apartment..man was it tiring/cost him ALOT of money..i went to kristin kings wedding saturday night it was beautiful..she looked stunning..the reception was awesome it had a live band there was about 25 pi phis there and that was super fun except my 4 favorites were missing.. afterwards i went to uptown with jessie, kendall and amanda mills it was fun, but just a lot different/more expensive than waco.. i still have not unpacked a single bag it is just stacked in my room i told my mom today i might just leave it like that until i moved out she didnt really care for that idea..im going to start running again tom i may do another half marathon in the fall who knows though.. the rest of this week will be spent studying for my test which i take thrusday and yes im still job hunting they filled the one at the middle school i went to :( so the hunt continues..

kath- i love the video of connor it is adorable i watched it probably 12 times..im glad the wedding was soo fun..i miss you already and if youll be in town on the 12 lets go to dinner :)

jp- only your prof wouldnt show up on the first day i never got that lucky..lol i hope summer school is not to hard and im kinda glad baseball lost to so ben is back in waco..keep me up to date on the draft im proud of baylor baseball though for making it as far as they didnt with an idiot like coach smith.. missing you alot

Hello ladies, 

Well, first day of class, and my professor didn't even show up lol... Just wanted to blog and tell y'all how much I miss everyone!  It's not the same without y'all here :(... Baylor lost on Sunday :(, but I'm secretly happy because Ben is back and he's all I've got here in Waco hahaha.

Love you all!!  Have a fabulous week!
JEN

haha i made this a little while ago -- kinda tank --- kinda cute :)

LAST but not least :)

Hi loves!! i know i know... FINALLY!! Sorry i was in California for a little over a week --- it was a spur of the moment trip i hadn't planned on going, but i felt like vacationing instead of plunging into the real world lol... i just got back last friday and have been reorganizing my life since. today was lame sauce i ran errands all day but i finally got a chance to blog. i'll try to be better lol. in cali i went to body worlds, the beach, and yummy restaurants and saw angels and demons, played golf and went bike riding in the mountains. sounds kind of lame now that i'm writing about it but i had fun haha. so now im back in boring 'Heller' and running errands and hanging out with my new/ temporary roomates -- the parentals. joyful!! i want a job already. i have an on and off one taking care of and driving around these family friends daughters but still looking for a "real" one!!

Di: your london pics are amazing -- i wish we could've all been on that vacay. hope your having fun on your roadtrip with the gentle giant :)
Kath: your boyfriend is the sweetest, i think we're all jealous ;) i hope that you and your sisters get to move out together that'd be fun!!
Jen: I can't wait for you to be a MLB gf/ wife :) haha I'll keep my fingers crossed for Benny Bear, good luck with summer school love
Megs: using Jeff's pool needs to happen asap -- heck lets make it a party and call abs and heather hahah

post college life so far sucks... i love you all dearly
elaine

sup homeslices!

hey girls!! sorry i haven't been blogging like you girls! i promise i'll get better!! connor's family doesn't have wireless internet but im gunna start bringing my computer to work and ill write during the day and post it later :) anywayssss... life has been pretty good since moving home. not great cuz i'm not with yall... but it hasn't been horrible. lets see... first week back i started at connors which has been really fun. then was memorial weekend with the family...not bad. last week was good. it went by really fast because i didnt work on monday (memorial day) and megan came in on wednesday :) for my birthday! so of course that was awesome! and then this past weekend i visited kathryn in san marcos and went to a wedding in austin. san marcos was super fun! it reminded me a lot of waco cuz kathryn was running into people left and right. i was hoping to run into someone from baylor but no such luck :( i miss yall! saturday we slept in til like 12 and drove into austin where i got to meet kathryn's niece emma for the first time. she is PRECIOUS but... i think connor's cuter ;) haha! then i met up with my friend chad and we went to our friend charlie's wedding!! charlie and i have known each other since kindergarden and its super super super weird that he's married. both he and kim (the girl he married) come from really flashy families so needless to say the wedding was INSANE! it was outside at the texas golf club looking over the hills and cliffs of austin. it was amazing!!! ahh i could talk about it forever!! i had a ton of fun with my friend chad but since we're just friends we were both kinda looking around like hey.... i wanna get married! haha! the fact that we drank from 5:30 to midnight straight might have something to do with that ..... i'm just saying ;) anyways... yesterday was pretty uneventful... just drove home and went to church with the family. my parents are actually talking to my sisters and i about the possibility of getting an apartment for the 3 of us. things have been tolerable so far but i know once kelly moves home... the shit's gunna hit the fan HARDCORE! so im glad they're willing to work with us in finding a place cuz i just might die if i don't move out soon. haha! anyways.... sorry i know this is like super long. im new at the blogging thing...the last thing i wanted to tell ya'll was that connor started eating solid baby food now (not just cereal!.....yes i am actually blogging about this....surprise surprise). anyways i took some videos of him today and i thought this one i'm gunna post was HILARIOUS!

enjoy!!! miss you tons!!!!!! love love love love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WASSUPPPP!!!! its JP!!!

Greetings from Waco!  

So, I've been in Oklahoma for the Big 12 tournament, it was so much fun because my family got to be there & my 12 yr old cousin, Jackson was a bat boy for one of the Baylor games haha.  Ben played really great at all of the games!  (bricktown wasn't the same w/out you megs!)  Baylor made it into regionals, and they're playing at LSU right now.  They beat Minnesota last night and play LSU tonight (thought of you, Di)...  LSU is ranked 2nd in the nation so I'm nervous for them haha.  The draft is June 9th, so I'll let y'all know if Ben is picked!  Ok, enough baseball stuff lol...

School starts this Tuesday... UGH... I'm taking World Religions.  It's so funny living w/ Annie and Brit, they had a little party last night & it reminded me of when everyone was still living here, I miss y'all so much!!!!  

Diana, I loved all your pics!  I'm so jealous.  How is that new macbook??

Kathleen, Connor is ADORABLE.  

Elaine, I'll be in Southlake June 19th so we should do lunch :)

Megs, I'm taking care of Annie, no worries haha

ello! its di face!

well i got back a couple hours ago from london..go to facebook and check out the pics. i miss yall so much. the trip was amazing but the last traveling day was very sad for me because i watched first wives club and missed yall very much. is anyone else getting depressed about our future lives???? lol. ok so enough with that, im leaving monday for my road trip and the weekend after or the next weekend i want to come to dallas! so we better all be hanging out soon. kath, hows connor? and jen have u been to applebees with ben and jason lately? hahaha. elaine, when i come up to dallas you should come with me to the hospitals and apply in person instead of online. it might be better doing it that way. 

megs, please find a way to scan and post the pics from the river, i loved them.  this is a very random blog, but i miss you guys SO MUCH!!!

i've technically been up since one in the morning houston time when i'm writing this so if it doesnt make sense that is why.  love you!

Hey girls it me again..I have a feeling Ill be doing most of the posting...but heres a quick one for today!

I am in HOuston with Kath!!! We are getting ready to go out and celebrate her birthday..it will be fun but not the same because we wont have "our" group we wish you were all here.. HOw is the job hunt going for everyone/summer school/being a nanny..

but for today since im not creative its just wishing my friends would blog,

Megan!

Happy Late Graduation

Hey girls,

I hope this post excites you. I have created our very own blog. We can put posts about whats going on in our lives, pictures and basically whatever we want. My hope is that we can all try and do one post a week. I know this may be unrealistic, but we do all facebook at least once a week so I think it would be cool if we could do this too. I love you all very much and cannot wait until our next hang out (speaking of we need to figure that out).... Below is just a little something for each of you:


Diana 22 Kingwood, Texas

I have known Diana since freshman year. I can honestly say she has kept me grounded and reminded me its okay that we all come from different backgrounds. I know she is going to do great things in life and cannot wait to see her next step.

Elaine 21 Keller, Texas

I have known elaine since I was in the 6th grade. We were roomates for 4 years. Yes 4 years and we are still BEST FRIENDS. I would not be who I am today if was not for Elaine's loving heart, patience and the complete passion she has shown me. I know her next move is going to be great because lets face it she is GREAT!

Kathleen 22 Houston, Texas

I have known her since freshman year as well, but it wasnt until Junior year our friendship truly began. We have been through a lot together in such a short time. I have had some of the deepest conversations with her. She is a light in my life and my last years at Baylor would not have been as fun or as documented if it were not for her. She is a nanny for a sweet baby (connor) he is a lucky boy, im kinda jealous he gets to hang our with her all day.

Jen 23 Southlake, Texas

Last, but certainly not least is my sweet Jen. We have been roomates for the past 2 years. I feel like she is the best friend i have needed my whole life. As we like to say, I make her a little more responsible and she allows me to be a little more on the edge. Were a pretty great pair and some of my favorite memories involve this girl. She is the lucky one who gets to stay at Baylor one more semester. I know shes going to be a success in life and I am so glad I get to be right next to her as she does it.
