My mom is the one person in the world I will always look up to. This is not an exxageration. She is absolutely amazing in too many ways. As a child I never appreciated how much she did for me, but now that I am growing and actually understanding a lot of things I could not be more thankful for everything she does for me. Just like every parent she wants to be in my life as much as possible. And living two and a half hours away makes it difficult. This past summer I graduated from high school then moved to San Diego California. I lived there for three months and I never saw my parents. I think this seperation made me realize how much I really do love my parents. Going off and traveling is something I have always enjoyed doing, but I have learned that you cannot leave the people who you affect the most behind. They will always be in your heart. I moved back to Baton Rouge for about a week before I started school here in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and that was probably one of the hardest weeks of my life. Being away from her that long, then coming home for such a short time was the biggest tease. anyway
besides my life story
she is one woman that I know is always honest. My mom will tell me the truth for anything. no matter if it will hurt my feelings. and thats why I love to be around her. I do not like people who lie for no apparent reason. She is the person I look up to and hope to someday be like.
My mom is also the most organized person. I think without her helping me keep my life together I would have fallen apart months ago. She helps me with my checking, my tuition and anything finacial. And always makes me be the responsible one to make the changes that need to be made. without her and her guidance im pretty sure I would have gone insane.
She has to be the most level headed person I know. She will always look at things in different views and try to figure out what is best. She says that I make her look at things differently sometimes... im not really sure how but hey.
In all honesty my mom and my friendship is more than just oh shes my mom I love her.
I love her with every inch of my heart.
because of everything she does.
every decision she makes.
and every word she says.
she is the reason I am here today and the reason I am still standing.
She gives me inspiration to become what I want to be. and to fufill my dreams. To never give up and hold my head up high. Be the better person in any situtation. and if that means you have to get hurt in the long run, the pain is worth the feeling of good decisions.
to me my mom is the one person in the world I can say I look up to in every way.
She is talented, and loving.
fun yet disciplined.
without her understanding I would be empty.

Spring Fever
SPRING BREAK 2008!
"Im gonna get your motor started!"
This spring break was beginning with some volunteer work. My sorortiy, Kappa Delta hosts a 5K fun run every year to help prevent child abuse america. 80% of the money goes to
prevent child abuse american nationally, and the other 20% goes to our own local community Hattiesburg. We were out ready to help everyone through at 6 o'clock in the morning. Almost way too early for me to function. and not to mention FREEZINGGGGG. I had so many layers on to help me but nothing seemed to work. oh and did you know starbucks isnt open until seven?! yeah we didnt. But the run was a big sucess and all together we raised 25,000 dollars. All which is going to abused children, there is nothing that makes you feel better than knowing you made a difference in someone's life.

Right after that Meghan, Kristen, and I were Destin bound! Meghan was in charge of the whole spring break and getting the ho
use together (the money, grocerys, all the boring stuff) so she had to get there first. We arrived at the house and it was perfect. Keep in mind that there is 21 girls living in this house for a week. Talk about loud. but everything worked out. People began to show up and everyone got settled. We all knew that tomorrow was going to be an amazing day at the beach. We went to the beach and layed out and just enjoyed the Florida sun. I got to enjoy this whole trip with my phenomenal pledge class, minus like 5 girls. plus one who is not greek but absolutely amazing miss paige price. but this made us so close and Im pretty sure we had way to many heart to hearts...but thats what best friends do.. We met up with some friends and just hung out. Our house was at a great convience, it was in between two of the houses we wanted to visit all the time. Everyday was the same, meet up with these people, drink, sleep, go out at night.

FUN never FADES!
After a day at the beach we always seemed to go to the hott tub and that drained everything out of me every afternoon. But we kept doing it. truck bed full of people we were good to go! Even though everything was becoming routine, 
We did catch some rain one day... boo...So what does everyone do when it rains in Destin?...they go shopping. Everyone and their momma was at the malls. Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Georgia, and Troy were all on spring break the same time as us. So everywhere we went there were frattastic people bombarding the stores. I didnt even walk into polo, it was obnoxious and that was something I did nottttt feel like dealing with.

I didnt even walk into polo, it was obnoxious and that was something I did nottttt feel like dealing with. Our older girls, or the pledge class above us (sophomores) had a house near Pelican Beach Resort. Which was really far from us. WE stayed in crystal beach and they were practically by the Holiday Inn. Anyway besides that they decided to throw a house party. And it was SOOO much fun. Every person from Southern and was there. Talk about amazing. but on a negative note the cops did come like 4 ti
mes, but nothing ever happened. Except the next day Meghan and I get phone calls at nine in the morning asking us if her aunt could act like their gaurdian. Apparently their house owner came to their door step with evection papers, and told them if their adult was not there in an hour they would have to leave. Our adult was in pensecola taking some class so we could not help them. They were down to the point of paying someone fifty dollars to act like their adult. Luckily they ran into someone they knew and she signed for them, Because thats what we do! so they got out of it but definitely got a nice scare.THE FINAL ENDING
Overall there were some amazing memories made, and its something I will never forget. These girls are a special part of my life and we have a sisterhood that no one can break.
AOT
without these girls I would not be the same person that I am today and I thank God every day that they bless me with their love honesty and truth.
