Just Keep Going

Life is like.. being punched in the face. It hurts for a while but the pain will eventually go away.

The game on Friday was intense. I wanted to leave after the first quarter, but of course Andrew said no. Good thing he did. I would have been so mad at myself if we had left and then won the game. I'm really glad I was there to see that comeback. 

It took forever to get back to Auburn. Traffic in Tuscaloosa was horrible and then there was a wreck between Montgomery and Auburn that had traffic backed up for over an hour.

 But we we finally did get home we went to Toomer's and it was beautiful. 

The rest of the break wasn't bad. I should have been doing work instead of letting it pile up. My final proposal for Senior Thesis is due on Friday and I have to work my butt off to get it done. I'm going to try to get a majority of the work done before Wednesday because Justin wants to go out and I want to go as well. It's been a sad week and a half. I need some fun.

On Saturday Auburn plays in the SEC Championship against South Carolina and I really want to go, but I don't have $300 to spend on a tricket. Plus, Justin and I have decided that if Auburn makes it to the BCS National Championship game in Arizona then we are going and I need to save my money for that. But, back to Saturday, it's also Kody's 21st birthday. I'm really sad that I'm not going to be able to go out with him to celebrate, but I bought his gift yesterday and I'm pretty sure he's going to like it. It's a first edition, first printing of Ernest Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls. I'm super excited about giving it to him. I also give him a flag every year, but I haven't gotten it yet. I need to get on that.

Lots of Food and Fun

Life is like... watching a sad movie. There will be sad times but they won't last forever.

Thanksgiving was great. My family had dinner Wednesday night and today I went to eat lunch with Blake's family. My family and I put up Christmas decoration on Tuesday night because my mother won't have any days off between now and Christmas. It's a lot of work, but we always have fun. 

Tomorrow morning at 6:30 A.M. Andrew and I leave for Tuscaloosa. I'm really worried about the game and the drive up there, but hopefully everything goes well.

Justin sent me this picture and I felt like I had to share it. I love fall in Auburn.

Highs and Lows

Life is like... opening gifts. You never know what to expect. 

Thursday night Kody and I saw Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan in concert in Columbus. It was a whole lot of fun. 

After the concert we met up with Justin, Brad, Audrey, and Riley to see Harry Potter at midnight. It was so good. I can't wait for the last movie to come out. It sucks that it's so long from now. 

Friday wasn't a good day. I broke up with Andrew. We have been fighting constantly and I wasn't happy anymore. It breaks my heart because I really wanted it to work, but there comes a time when I have to do what's best for me and this was one of those time. I definitely want to be friends with him, but that's his call.

We're going to the SHIP!!

Life is like... an interview. You are constantly being judged by people that don't really know you.

Auburn beat Georgia yesterday and that means we're going to the SEC championship!! I'm so excited! I'm looking for tickets so Andrew and I can go. Hopefully Cam Newton will still be our quarterback when we get there. 

 The man of the hour.

In other news...

Sputnik is starting to develop more of a personality and that's really exciting.  I realized the other day that I never posted a picture of him so I decided to today. 

(side note: that is not my room)

On Thursday I'm going to see Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan in Columbus, Georgia with one of my good friends Kody. I'm excited to see them. We have floor seats so it should be a lot of fun.

Things Are Looking Up

Life is like... potty training. You may make a a lot of mistakes but you'll eventually get the hang of it.

Sputnik is gaining more of a personality. The vet said he probably hasn't had much interaction with humans and that's why he's so afraid of everything. She said he should come out of his shell eventually though. 

Andrew and I are doing better. We had a really bad fight on Friday but we worked it out. 

This weekend I'm going to Tuscaloosa to visit one of my very best friends Blake. We may be driving to Mississippi State that night to see Eric Church in concert. I'm super pumped. 

Saturday I'm driving back to Auburn for the Auburn-Georgia game. This game could decide whether or not we go to the SEC Championship game. I'm kind of nervous. But on a happy note, Kody's mother and grandmother will be in town for the game and I'm excited to see them.

But I can't get ahead of myself. Thursday I present my final proposal for senior thesis. I really need an A in this class so I'm hoping it goes well. Wish me luck.

Rough Day

Life is like... a book. It is made up of many chapters and always has an end.

These past few days have been horrible.

I've been coughing so bad that it hurts to breathe. 

I got my dog Wednesday and it will not come out of its cage.

Andrew and I got into a huge fight that may end our relationship.

Let's hope it gets better.

In It 2 Win It.

Life is like... a football game. In order to win, someone has to lose.

And speaking of football games... Auburn won!!

(You can't really tell but the other side of the scoreboard says 51)

Oxford is a beautiful city and Ole Miss has a really pretty campus. 

Justin and I really enjoyed this random boat.
