Here's to the new school year!

Yay for new friends and new experiences!!! I have had a blast so far here up in good ol' Flagstaff! Of course I still have my ups and downs, but the downs are fewer and farther apart! I got moved to Football which is good and got to work camp and such had a blast! I moved into my permanent dorm last Sunday and my roommates moved in on Thursday.  They are awesome and I think it will be a fun year! Here are some pictures of my room!

 Here is our bedroom, my bed is the one with the blanket. This was before my roommates moved in.  We also have our own bathroom off the bedroom.
 This our common room.  We moved the fridge next to my desk and the table to where the fridge was and it opened it up a lot!
Here is our little kitchenette. I can put my arms out and touch each side of the wall with my hands haha.  But its cute and we like it!

So funny story! So on Wednesday the Cardinals were cleaning things out on their side of the stadium so there were people in and out of the training room over on that side (our training room is on the west side theirs was on the east side).  Well Larry Fitzgerald came in on his Segway ( all the Cardinals have one). If you don't know what that is well all the mall cops have them too and Paul Blart had one in Paul Blart Mall Cop haha.  Anyways so me and Dre, she is a graduate assistant, decided to go on that side of the field to be closer to Larry. We were hoping to catch him when he was leaving so we could maybe talk to him.  Well we didn't get to talk to him but I got a picture of his Segway!

Well classes start tomorrow so I am going to bed! I am excited for this year and can't wait for everything that's in store for me!

Flagstaff and all its glory :)

Hey blogging world!!!!! I've missed you! I know it's been awhile, but really I have had no time to sit down and tell the world of my adventures!  Get ready for some pictures!!!! So last Sunday, July 31st, I packed up my stuff and moved up to the cooler country, to begin the next phase of my college career.
We loaded up the truck and off we went!!!!! Goodbye familiar territory and hello life on my own!

So we got to Flagstaff and went to check into my dorm, well the room I was suppose to be in was a total mess.  My soon-to-be roommate did not know she was suppose to have a roomie, so I got another room and luckily the other bed was broken so I got it all to myself.  My suite mate just left so I have the bathroom all to myself also!

My room! It's a little messier now haha.


I have been super busy with the training program and have met some awesome people!!!!! I think it will be a great year, with great friends and awesome experiences.  We found out what sport we are assigned to and I got volleyball.  The team is great and I think I will have a good experience with them.  I will get to work some football also, which is good.  I will get to work 4 home football games including homecoming so that will be tons of fun!

Last Saturday I went to Clear Creek with a girl from the program.  We went with some of her friends who are also in the program.  The Creek is just outside of Winslow and is usually clear, hence Clear Creek.  But that day... it was not.  I couldn't see my hands under the water.  Here is a picture of it!





Gross I know! But I did swim in it, but only for like 5 minutes just to cool off!

So that is all about what has been going on! School starts in about 2 weeks on the 29th, and I move into my permanent dorm next weekend.  I will meet my roomies later that week when they move in! I'm loving it here in the cooler weather, I definitely do not miss the 100 degrees at all!  Look out for another post in a few weeks!!! I will try to be better at this I promise!
