I Made the Paper....



So this past weekend we (Kathryn, Schuett, and I) headed down to LR to watch Dani finish the LR half marathon! She did AWESOME, I mean there is absolutely no way I would ever run 13 miles unless my life depended on it and let's be real even then I would probably die before I made it the full 13. So proud of her to have the dedication to train and run it, not to mention it was freakishly cold that morning. After the race we headed to Cozymel's to eat some delicious lunch before we headed back to the hill. Well, now we are getting to the name of my post, today at work my phone started to blow up with text messages asking if I had seen myself on the cover of the paper. Well, obviously, since I was at work I hadn't seen any papers and had absolutely no idea what they were talking about. Turn to find out that I managed to be in the background of a picture from the marathon. Poor Dani, she actually runs the marathon and I ended up in the paper. Not only was it the cover of the paper but it was the cover of the Democrat Gazette which is the statewide paper meaning that everyone from my grandma to my friends at school got to see it and thanks to one of my lovely roommates sticking it on the back board at Chi O I'm pretty much a celebrity. As embarrassed as I was when I first saw it I figure I might as well just own up to it and enjoy my little (very, itty bitty) time in the limelight, ha. So this post is mostly so I will just remember that I did make the cover of the state paper even if my name isn't mentioned. I posted the picture from the paper and a picture of Dani crossing the finish line for your viewing! Night, night bloggy friends!

Hometown Tour (T-Town Edition)


DISCLAIMER: Guest blogging is still to occur at some unannounced date.

DISCLAIMER 2: Sorry for not posting in so long. Between tests and work and Internet issues life's been crazy.


Regular Post:

Hey peeps! Long time no blog! Sorry about that (see disclaimer above). So I am so excited this weekend we are road tripping to Texarkana, TX. After our trip to Conway last semester for the Little Rock game (which we didn't make it to) we decided we should really do a hometown tour of everyone's hometowns. So this weekend we are heading to Texarkana to see Natalie and K. Ward's hometown :) I can't wait I just love seeing where people are from. Plus, pretty much everyone is going which is pretty stinking exciting since I don't think all of us have been together in what feels like forever. So on Friday Sgibs, Nat, Kat, Chan, Dan, and I are all loading up and heading down to kick it in T-Town. I'll definitely do a post after the weekend to let you know how it goes. On another note, last weekend was Mom's weekend and my mom came up which was a blast. I love Mom's weekend! I have to admit I broke off the Panama plan when mom and I discovered how yummy Bliss cupcakes our. Bliss is located on the square and since we had to be down there for Greek Sing (which was wonderful, btw) we just had to stop in and get some. I love cupcakes they are just so HAPPY! My happy moment for today is that I am pretty much free from here on out which is exciting and my happy moment for the past couple days is that even though my car is in the shop (Big Red was sick) my sweet friends have been so kind to tote me around. Hope everyone has a happy Thursday and expect a picture post/update on the weekend soon.
