Last post before college... Whoah!

Hello everyone! Sorry for not posting all summer, but I really haven't done many exciting things. It has been a great summer, though. Okay, okay, it doesn't compare to last summer, but it's still been pretty wonderful.

First, I went to freshman orientation at Belmont. It was incredible! I got to learn the campus a lot better, and I scheduled all my classes for the fall. I met a lot of people, but orientation was hectic and we were all going to different places, so it was hard to actually make friends. Anyway, one of the best parts about orientation was getting to tour my dorm building, Wright Hall. The rooms are huge! Here's me being super excited about my gigantic closet!
It's huge! I'm so glad I don't have to worry about leaving clothes at home. Paradise!
A few weeks after orientation, I went to camp at Belmont. It was a week-long camp for high school musicians. Sure, it was a camp for high schoolers, but I was excited to spend a week at Belmont and to meet the French horn professor (he's wonderful!). Before camp, I had no idea that I would make great friends there. I met two girls who will also be freshmen in the fall, and we had a fantastic time that week. We ate every meal together, walked around together, and even watched the entire first season of Teen Wolf. Yeah, we're cool :) I can't wait to see Abby and Lisa again when we move in! 
We wore matching outfits for the camp dance/karaoke party


After our concert... It's not "goodbye", it's "see you in two months"!!!
We also got to tour Belmont's brand new concert hall! We'll get to play here in the fall... It's so beautiful!!

Ahhh!

Okay. Since camp, I haven't done anything really noteworthy. Meh! But I'll post some photos just for fun :)
Well. Here's a cute little outfit I figured out. I wore it to a production of Oliver here in Tullahoma. It was a great night!
It's so close! I move in Saturday and classes start Wednesday!

Well, here's my progress in packing for school. It's taking over my house... :|
And here's my awesome new Lenny & Eva bracelet from Merle Norman! I LOVE IT SO MUCH.
Okie dokie, there's my totally uneventful summer in picture form :P Maybe I'll be able to post again with photos of my dorm, but I'm not entirely sure how busy I'll be once I get to school.

I'm so blessed to have parents who are willing to send me to my dream school! I can't wait to get to Belmont; this school is truly a blessing. I am absolutely certain that I belong at Belmont and in Nashville. I can't wait to see what God has in store for me next. It will be difficult to leave Tullahoma, my dog, my cat, my bed, and of course my parents, but I know they'll all be here for me when I get the chance to come visit. It's going to be a big change, but there are 1,800 other freshmen going through the same thing, and I'm ready to meet the challenge with them! I'm thankful for my college friends who have given me advice along the way.. So if you're reading this, know I couldn't have stayed sane without you!  

Thank you for supporting me through this crazy journey. Thanks for reading my blog!
