Happy Halloween Weekend!

Happy Halloween! This is one of my favorite holidays of the year and this year was the best so far! On Thursday, my friends' and I handed out candy to all the kids in Ada. This was so much fun, we sat around the fire because it was really cold out and we had apple cider. We did not know how many kids would come by us at the house because we had around 75 kids. Everyone was so friendly and so many of the families were talking with us about plans after college and how we have enjoyed our years. 
Being a senior, it was very sad talking about leaving Ada and moving on to a new part in my life but it is also very exciting. 
On Friday, we had a pizza night and sat by the fire all night. We had a couple of pizza in the house and after class, we watched a movie. Since Halloween is around the corner, we decided that we would watch a scary movie. I could not be happier, I love scary movies. The unknown that comes with watching scary movies is my favorite thing. After the movie was over, we all pulled up our chairs and sat by the fire. This has became a tradition at my house and it is one of my favorite. We are all different majors and never really get to see each other during the week so this is one way we are able to catch up with each other. 
Saturday was an all day celebration, it was one of my friend's 21st birthdays and we were celebrating all day. In addition to this, it was the day we were celebrating Halloween, this year I was dressing up as a UPS girl. The other girls in my house were dressing up as different delivery services, FedEx, Amazon, and USPS. We thought it would be a funny and creative idea. We were the only people who were dressed up as delivery people which made it better. I would say that this weekend was so much fun and created so many amazing new memories.

  1. I am so glad you had a fantastic Halloween! This year I totally forgot about trick or treat. Basketball practice usually falls during trick-or-treating, so we don't get to see all the Ada kids in their costumes. Your costumes are on point! I bet it felt good to be the only ones you saw wearing them. Everyone's creativity truly shines on Halloween!

  2. While I do love Halloween as well, you cannot pay me enough to watch scary movies willingly. I jump scare so easy! My roommates also handed out candy, I for one stayed inside because I had some work to finish up.

Christmas Formals

Each year, Alpha Xi Delta hosts their Christmas formals which is one of the nicest events that we throw in the fall semester. This allows everyone in the chapter to get all dressed up and spend time with each other. This year, we were able to bring dates with us so I brought Megan. Megan knows a lot of the girls in my sorority because a couple of our friends are in the chapter so it was super fun to hang out with everyone. We started getting ready for the formal a couple hours before it started so before people could come to my house to take pictures and hang.  After some time, we all headed to the event and it was so much fun! When we first went there, we spent 30 minutes taking pictures of the different backdrops that they had set up. It was nice to have different options and fun to take pictures with everyone in the chapter. After some time, we went back upstairs and got hot chocolate and sat at the tables. Everyone talked for time and caught up with everyone else. Once everyone was

Welcome to Ada!

While I was just home last weekend, my parents wanted to come up for the weekend. One of the main reasons for them coming is Megan's parents were also coming up and this would be the first time they have met. We wanted to have a tailgate for the football game with them to get to hangout with all of our friends. In addition to hanging out with Megan's parents, my older brother and I surprised my parents by driving down to The University of Cincinnati to pick up my younger brother,  Aiden.  They haven't seen him since leaving for school so we thought this would be really cool for him to join us this weekend. When my parents saw Aiden, they were shocked. They had no idea that we were going to pick him up for the weekend. This made this whole weekend that much more fun!  We all got the our tailgate location in the late morning. The parents set up all of the food that was made and everyone enjoyed each others' company. A lot of Megan and I's friends showed up to socializ

Unexpected Visits

Ohio Northern is an amazing school but freshman year, my best friend, Kendyl transferred halfway through the academic year. She was unhappy on campus and knew that the best thing was for her to leave. I supported her knowing that Ohio Northern was not the place for her anymore but ever since, I felt like a part of me is missing. Throughout the remainder of the year, Kendyl and I would FaceTime at least once a week, as this was the best way to stay in touch and feel connected to each other.  Sophomore year came around and I was really struggling. I did not enjoy my major and was having minor roommate problems. Kendyl recognized that I was miserable and asked what she could do to help me feel better. I conceded that a weekend visit would really help. At first she did not think she would be able to, but after some convincing she made the trip. This was the best weekend I had all year! Whenever we are together, we always have the best time. Laughing the whole time, there is never a dull mo
