TILT: Things I Love Thursday (As Adopted by Ashley)

Yeah, I'm deciding to do Things I Love Thursday. It's a good way to make sure I write once a week and it's also a good way to stay positive. Thanks Ashley for the idea!

Things that are coming up:
-Spring!!! The weather is great! I am loving the heat and the feeling that snow MIGHT be gone for a good while *knocks on wood*
-Street Clean. This Saturday I will be volunteering at a street clean right in my backyard! This will be getting us points so that we can take back 1st place in Green Games and earn Kentwood a treadmill or elliptical!
-Tunnel of Oppression. Next week is Tunnel of Oppression and it will be my first time going. Tunnel is an in your face look at different groups being oppressed. It's essentially a simulation where you go from room to room seeing just how this specific group is oppressed. It will be an emotional thing but I think it will be a good event to attend. :)
-Dinner with my brother. Not this weekend but next weekend I will be going back home to St. Louis because my brother, whom I haven't seen in a good 15 years, will be in town! I'm nervous because I'm kind of shy around people I don't see often so I have a feeling I will be awkward. But I will try very hard not to be awkward. I can't wait to see him.

Now on to things I love:

I love Pinterest. Like a lot. I'm probably on it more than I am on Facebook now-a-days. It's like online vision boards that can be inspiring or just nice to look at. I notice a lot of times that it makes me want to cook or have a baby. Haha! I think because there is always a cute baby somewhere on the page and very delicious looking food.
I love taking tests and knowing you did well, not just thinking it. Today I took a test in Biological Anthropology over cell division and genetics and I seriously kicked ass. I wrote detailed answers and were quick to write them. I don't think I got a 100% but I am positive I got an A. If I didn't get an A, I will be shocked. But a high B is totally acceptable!
I love seeing old friends. Today I spent my day with big in my sorority and my former RA and overall one of my best friends, Kayla. It was great to see her since I don't get to often. I feel like around her I can vent and be goofy and random and we just don't really care about anyone else. It's nice. I feel like with my job I am so worried about how people are seeing me and I wonder "Am I doing it right? Am I being a good role model?" even though I put on a front that I don't really care. I always still worry about that. But getting away was very nice for a night.
I love PoHo. PoHo, or Potter's House, is a coffee shop here on campus that is so freaking delicious. My favorite drink is called "The King" and it's peanut butter, chocolate and bananas. Can you say "YUMMMMMM"? Yes, I think you should. It's just a great little RA getaway and it's free for a little while at least!
I love thinking about the future. That is a kind of silly statement but I'm ridiculously excited about the next year. I got a call from my Transfer Coordinator at SLU and it was like a reality of this big decision. It's also nice to know my Transfer Coordinator is actually wanting to help me. :) I'm so excited to be a Billiken it's ridiculous.

Well, I can't think of other things to love at the moment but I think it's because I'm ridiculously tired. :)

I hope everyone had a great St. Patrick's Day. Be sure and tell me how it was!
