Hey guys!

Its friday. I just went to a hall of fame induction for school, and ti was actually super fun. I had a lot of fun. We had a delicious dinner, super fancy and super free, but then we had to sit there forEVER while everyone talked. like, i know they are recieving an award, but they literally talked for like 45 minutes. Come on people. we are tired and we have practice in the morning.

speaking of which, i got to see coach laura simon today. I missed her.

also im exhausted and I have praactice in the morning. but first, guys, I really was thinkinga bout rachel today. She is just so great, and she makes me so happy. I really love being with her, and being arond her. 

but i also have blisters on my feet from my shoes. ugh

okay, im gonig to bed. Night guys! Have a good weekend!

Hey guys!

Okay here is a quick update.

I am not going to Oaklahoma this weekend (whoohoo!!) and instead, i am working a ten hour shift during homecoming. Which ought to be fun. Because I have a lot of stuff to do. plus its me and the other Kelsey. 

also, i have so many PDF readings that my mommy wants to get me a tablet! One that is just for reading and highlighting and annotating. Cause thats literally all I need. Just something lighter and easier to pick up and read and carry around so I always have all my readings for class on them. You know?

also, after last week, life is going pretty good. I am finally getting a bit of a handle on classes. so much reading, but im getting better. you know. finally. 

also rowing is going pretty well. The whole team is like super duper injured and so its a little stressful. but hopefully it will workout. i just hope they will all be back in time for spring. otherwise we are screwed. 

oaky, i gotta go to bed. I am exhausted. I need rest so bad. but at least im here. 

Goodnight everyone!

Hey guys!

im very sorry i missed monday, I have been trying to move into my room and also I have RA training and so much more to do like door decorations and bulliten boards and be social and everything. But honestly, im having a lot of fun. I met another Kelsey, who is like 6 ft tall and she is awesome. We are super similar, and we are having lots of fun together.  I am doing Dr. Suess for my theme for door decorations, and its super freaking cute. Like super duper cute. 

Also, my room is starting to look cute. i got lights up, my cute sign about flip flops, i hung up my backpacks, i just gotta finish putting my desk stuff away and tearing apart my boxes and just kinda getting everything organized. 

Okay, its pretty close to the time when I am really going to sleep, because I am exhausted and need rest. good night guys, hopefully i will have time on friday to fill yall in

We had sangria, so that was good.  And today I finished my paper for the most part, I just gotta do a couple more edits. They might be super bad, and the paper might not be greart, but im pretty done with it at this point. you know?  okay, pick is asking me to come snugs, so i gotta go. Snugs are the best.

HI guys!

here are some of the adventures we had this week.  At the top is Johnny Cash’s house, then the two story outhouse and dungeons and dragons park, and then Gator Country!!

that was yesterday. I got to see the biggest gator in captivity, Big Al, and I also got to hold a baby gator! It was awesome. also gators are terrifying. I wanted to wade with them but I honestly didnt think Karli’s heart could take it. 

anyway, we got to San Antonio Last night, and its been a blast! we chilled in the am, and then went to the aquarium and saw sting rays and birds and sharks and we fed them all! it was awesome.  Tomorrow we are going to get Karli a pet fish, then hang out in downtown San Antonio and maybe get a super cool fun dinner in the tower of the americas. Or whatever it is. Mostly because it would be super fun and super exciting and a really good experience.  Plus i fly out sunday morning, and that ought to be fun to be home, but I am having fun here! I am definetly NOT going to miss how hot it is. But i have enjoyed some time here with Karli, its nice to see her  Okay, im off to get more brandied peaches so karli and I can finish this movie.  Good night guys! Have a good weekend, and stay safe!

Hi guys!

Sorry I missed monday, i have been traveling around the midwest trying to get to texas. Hopefully Karli and I will be there tomorrow night! we have seen some super cool stuff. Yesterday, we saw Dungeons and Dragons park, and a smiley face water tower and we were gonna see a reindeer ranch but it was closed. ALSO A TWO STORY OUTHOUSE. IT WAS AWESOME. Today we just saw Johnny Cash’s boyhood home, which was super great. I had a lot of fun. 

but it also means Karli and I are driving like 7 hours a day. Which is a lot, btw. But we are having fun! Currently in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and tomorrow we are going to Gater Country Adventure Park, so I am pumped. Karli isnt,but i am. 

we are fighting a lot, apu. Mostly because im crazy and like crazy politics and everyone doesnt appreciate my ambition or my dreams so im pretty over it right now. I just need to go to sleep. Cause im also trying to write a 10 page paper whle we are traveling. anyway, im gonna go to sleep. 

night guys. 

ill let you know how the trip is going tomorrow! follow along on my snap story if you are interested, because we are having lots of fun.

Heyyoo :) Had a good weekend here :) saturday was aight, tiring definitely. Put together a cabinet with mom and organized her yarn 💪🏻 and today we all went out on the water with some of dads friends, and a few of us chilled on the boat and chatted while they swam :) after that it was nap times and then more olympics!!! We love the olympics. The last 3 nights we've planted ourselves in front of the tv with dinner and just watched, it's been so much fun :D We're going into our last week of camp which is set to be crazy. Tbh the next 2 weeks are just going to be a lot. And then I'm back at work, and then school. So it goes, definitely could be worse. REALLY excited that kelsey is coming home soon though and that I get to have some quality time with Henry in between all the crazy stuff, that's still in 10 days though. FINGERS CROSSED I DON'T GET TRAMPLED BY TINY HUMANS GUYS. :) R

Hey guys!

Sorry I forgot to post yesterday. It was pretty hectic, cause all my roommates were moving out and I was working on/writing my paper (which sucks btw) and then I went to watch the Bach with Haley and her friends and it was terrible and then I was exhausted and I was planning on getting up early to go row but then it was like pouring rain and chance of thunderstorms so we didn’t want to risk it.

And i have to pack and get ahead because tomorrow i go to the lake house with pickle and his fam, and then monday I leave super early in the morning to go see Karli in Michigan and then we are driving down to Texas and then I coming to California for a few days (like 2.5) and then I’m going back to amherst. Oh, and like two days after I get back I have a ten page paper due. So thats a super fun time. I am just going to try and write it all on the plane i suppose.  Luckily I think my paper is gonna be similar to my shorter paper thats due this sunday, so hopefully I can use that research and just re-write those paragraphs and make it work in the longer, ten page paper.  Sorry I’m stressed out. And my house is a mess because my roommates all moved out and it was incredibly hectic, but today I am going to go to Starbucks (cause we have a table but no chairs apparently) and get my work done, and then I am going to come home and scour the entire house and clean everything so that it works out and everything is all neat and tidy.  The only good part, is that I found a $25 Starbucks gift card in the pockets of one of my jackets, so I don’t have to actually spend monday at Starbucks. Which is good cause I have none. I also just have to run to CVS so that I can get stuff to clean because the house is empty and smells terrible and its literally killing me.( my friend dropped me off at my house after watching the Bach yesterday, and she was like “you live here?? Kelsey this is scary!!!”....gee thanks Haley. but she is right. its super scary) But ill figure it out.  Okay, I gotta go catch the bus to go to starbucks. Sorry for the vent, im just stressed and super duper freaking medicated but its okay i just need to be productive for a couple hours. Ill talk to you guys later!! Have a good beginning of the week!

Heyooo friends :) 

Had a pretty chill weekend. Hung out with my parents whole time, did a lot of stuff around the house and bought some stuff they needed and I’m gonna need this coming year. I’m getting pretty excited to go back to school. Like I know I’ve still got a month but I think this one is going to go by quickly. 2 weeks left of camp, 1 week of subbing/packing/henry, 1 week in Norway, and them BAM work + school. Gonna be great :) Just gotta keep working hard these next few weeks and make sure I stay on top of my shit, and I should be all set. P psyched.
