So Blessed

This past weekend reminded me how immensely blessed I am to be at Hillsdale (not just academically, but in terms of friends)

I had a horribly long and busy week and was looking forward to Friday - lo and behold Friday came and it began with an essay that refused to print (making me ten minutes late for class), an equation on my chemistry test that was worth lots of points that I just couldn't figure out, and finally added stress as my Constitution class teacher mentioned we were having midterms this coming week. I went back to my dorm around noon and ran into my friend Allyn who lives in my dorm. She really wanted to hang out with me and so we decided that the two of us would go to the Hillsdale County Fair (I had gone two nights before for the concert but not for the 'fair' part). It ended up being such a day brightener and I even went on a ferris wheel!!

Then, one of my good friends named Ashley asked if we could go for a walk together to Walgreens and just chat - It was so nice to get to spend time with her and she's always inspiring me to be wise and think of others. So it added so much to my afternoon!

Finally, I spent the evening with another girl in my hall named Sarah and we just relaxed in her room and listened to a book on tape, which was soooo nice :) It was like storytime!
