i love charlie, and hanley loves mr. frugy.

we also like to lay around random places when we're too tired to actually go to bed.

mahogany and i on our way back from SEATTLE.

yes. that would be the last time anybody could wear sunglasses in BELLINGHAM. goodbye, sunshine.

another sneak peak of my side of the room. my desk is right next to my bed.(where i am sitting to take this awesomely random picture)

what did we do this weekend? we had our own photoshoot for about 20 minutes in avery's room. yes, just her and i. haha, who said college was about going to parties? taking pictures and going to bed at midnight is way cooler.

yes. it is way cooler.


here are the two super cute racoons that always show up outside my window!! they're always like 2 inches away from my window, where my desk is. but they leave after about 3 minutes when they realize we dont have any food.


hangin out after i got back from a game.

we're sad because we miss taiwan. well..only me i guess.

kenting. beach. sunshine. enough said.

i hope all of you are having a great year so far! tell me how you guys are doing, and what your christmas plans are!

I have been in college for a little over one week. Im homesick. Even though the people in my dorm are pretty cool and i've met quite a few friends, still..its just so different. and its hard to get used to. my schedule's pretty good, my psychology class has 450 kids! insane! This weekend i had soooo much reading to do in all my classes..like 250 pages total. and its sunday afternoon and i'm just starting awesome.  Oh, and i'm planning on doing intramural soccer, which starts on 10/5.


my first day in WA. with our beautiful Mt. Rainier.

pretty.

driving lots. ohh yeah.

sweet.

got a passionfruitgreen tea from my sisters old job-Gossip tea. and i got it for free cus of my sweet connections..and the fact that i basically worked there last summer.

most of my pictures are pretty blurry because i have to take them from a moving car. haha.

The day i moved up to Bellingham..

my roomate rachel and i at a pizza place on day 2.

hanley and i on campus, in front of the rec center. *gym*

using my sweet computer on my sweet half of the room.

the set up under my bed. its nice.

the view at the viking commons.


last night was the Toga party. made by our bedsheets. loving my bright pink-ness.


getting help with the whole toga thing. seriously we all needed a million people to help us. its a lot harder than it looks.

rachel and i


avery and i- our whole toga crew *about 50 of us* crashed this 80s party at Nash Hall, and we all got kicked out after only 2 songs.


sarah and i wandering from party destination to the next. cus we seriously got kicked out 4 times from different places. people are judgemental towards a huge crowd of people walking around in the middle of the night in togas. haha :)
so the night ended up with just a few of us remainding people watching a movie back here in our lounge. some party.


talkin on the phone


hangin out in my hall.


this is what we get to look at when we eat in the viking commons. beautiful.

to all my friends. i miss you all so much. you have no idea.
