RAIN.
I love falling asleep to the sound of rain.
I also love Tuesdays!
This morning I didn't wake up till 11.
Then I made a cup of coffee and ate a blueberry muffin from Costco (thanks mommy!).
Now I'm just ignoring the homework that needs to be done and enjoying this blustery rainy day.
Time for hats, scarfs, and boots.
I think I need a new umbrella :/

Ducks Unlimited
Last Thursday, Me and Trevor drove to Oregon for the annual Duck Unlimited Event. I've been going to Ducks Unlimited in Summer Lake since I was 16 and sure wasn't going to miss it this year. This year the weather was beautiful. There were a lot less people this year because of the economy, probably about 40, but it was still fun.
Friday, we did a lot of trap shooting ( I need some practice) and drove around getting our hunting licenses and stuff. At night we played Texas Holdem' and LCR (dice game). I did pretty good at Texas Holdem' and almost won the dice game.
Saturday morning , everyone went duck hunting. It was a little slow this year (meaning not so many ducks). In the afternoon me and Trevor loaded up a bunch of guns and drove out to the rock quarry to shoot. We set up some clay pigeons and water bottles to shoot. While I was waiting for Trevor to get off the phone.... I got comfortable lol. Got my chex mix, bullets, gun, diet coke... I'm all ready for a good time!
My Handsom boyfriend shootin' his gun
You can see the smoke coming out of the gun on this picture!
Me giving the dead duck a lil' kiss. Don't worry Ha Ha it didn't actually happen.
Posing with some dead ducks.
We found a big tractor out at the rock quarry and I just had to have a picture on it :)
Sunday everyone packed up early and headed back home. Long drive. Now I have another week of school :(

Love Without Boundaries
Adoption is always something I have been interested in. A few years ago I became quite close to a family with three beautiful girls adopted from China. Watching them grow and blossom has been an amazing experience for me. I love reading adoption blogs and hearing about all the amazing stories. One day I hope that I can change the life or lives of children who need a mommy to love them. I have always loved children and I often feel that God's plan for me involves my love for children.
I have recently become interested in an organization called Love Without Boundaries. This is what they do…
“Love Without Boundaries Foundation is a worldwide group of volunteers dedicated to improving the lives of orphaned and impoverished children in China. We provide humanitarian aid in five key areas – Education, Foster Care, Healing Homes, Medical, and Orphanage Assistance – enabling children to receive families through adoption or to become self-sustaining members of their communities.
Love Without Boundaries began in the year 2003, after a group of adoptive parents came together to help save the life of one tiny boy in China. Following his successful heart surgery, they realized that people with a pure love for helping children can truly make a difference. LWB incorporated as a 501(c)(3) charity in the state of Oklahoma, and our worldwide team of volunteers went to work. We have watched our foundation grow from providing a handful of surgeries and baby formula in 2003 to touching the lives of thousands of children today through our many program areas. LWB holds Charity Navigator's highest 4 star rating and has an administrative overhead of less than 8%.”

Girls Night
After a horrible week of studying for our first Business Law test (hardest class ever) me and Allie decided that we needed to get dressed up and go celebrate. So Allie (my hott date) took me to this delicious nice Mexican restaurant in Napa.
My first time having Fried Ice Cream!
Allie kinda looks like she's smelling it lol.
On the way back to school me and Allie rocked out to Queen and sang all the words (even the ones we didn't know) hehe. Oh and we added some air guitar in there too ;)

Summer is coming to an end :(
Last Saturday, Me, Janae, and Allie (with her family) went out on the boat to get a little more tan before the sun goes away for good. We had a lot of fun splashing around in the Lake and even wakeboarding. It was kinda of scary because exactly 40 years ago on that day was when the Zodiac killer killed at Lake Berryessa.

It has begun....
Grey's Anatomy!
Oh My Goodness!
SO Glad I went to watch that on a TV instead of on the internet.
Can't wait for my other shows to start.
HaHa wow I sound like a Loser with no life.

Back at School...
So I haven't written on here in a while. I've been super busy getting ready for school. Just thought I'd give everyone a little update.
I woke up at 5:30 Sunday morning so that I could leave at 6. Didn't end up leaving until 6:30 because my mommy made me breakfast! So I headed out on my long 10 hour journey to California. I was crusin' along (around Roseburg) and then I see a cop, I look down at my speedomter... I'm doing 85 (in a 65)... I hit the breaks and then I see the cop spin the car around and get on the freeway. Now I'm freaking out! He catches up, flips the lights on, and I pull over. I pretty much start freaking out, but keep my cool in front of the cops. It wasn't until after they left me with a ticket that I had a break down. My first ticket :(. I drove the speed limit the rest of the way. Thank goodness once I hit California the speedlimit went to 70.
So after I got to school I went to the welcome back party and saw all my friends, Yippee! We hung out for a while, went to safeway because PUC food is unedible and I had pinneapple for dinner. Healthy right? lol. Then I found a couple of boys to help me move in all my stuff. So much easier then me and Amanda moving in all my stuff. I still don't have everything put away but its a work in progress :). I'll post pictures later.
Classes are going pretty good. I'm taking Advertising (intersting), Cost Accounting (fun teacher), Business Law (super hard), Business & Society (boring), and Operating Management (There's only 4 people in this class and I'm the only girl :( ). It's weird telling people I'm a junior now. It's weird to think I'm starting the last two years of my college experience. It only gets harder from here. All my classes are upper divison and I can already tell I'm gonna have to do a lot more studying this year than the last two years. I'm already counting the days till the weekend and I've only been in school for 2 days! Bad sign haha.
