Weekend Recap

HAPPY MONDAY!!! 

How was your weekend?

I had a great fun packed weekend! It was exactly what I needed after a long week of studying for my 5th exam this month. Luckily, this week is our LAST exam for a couple weeks. October has been no joke. I need a break!

My classmates and I went out in Uptown Charlotte on Friday night to a piano bar called Howl at the Moon. It was a great opportunity to bond and get to know each other outside of the classroom. We all had a great time. We definitely need to do this again sometime soon!

The FSU vs Miami came was a tad bit stressful and ugly but somehow we pulled out a win. I hope that we play well against Duke at the Homecoming game this weekend. They had a big win against UNC and will be coming out with confidence to Doak. We better show up and fight! SCALP 'EM Seminoles!

On Sunday, my phi mu sister, Jackie, invited me to go to the Carolina Panthers game against the Dallas Cowboys. It was a perfect day in Charlotte, weather in the 70s and sunny. For a while there I thought we were going to pull ahead with the win against the cowboys. It was a close game!

I decided that Charlotte is probably where I will end up. The city, people, and environment is right in line with my personality. I love the southern hospitality meets city slickers. It is such a fun city and I am looking forward to the next four years exploring the city!

Have a great week! It's almost the weekend again :) 

Go Noles beat Clemson!

Today feels like Christmas. I am giddy with excitment. Florida State plays Clemson today. College Game Day is in Tallahassee. Facebook/Twitter is flooded with Seminole pride. I am beyond pumped for 8:00 kick off.

For the past couple years, Clemson has been a tough game. Playing in Death Valley isn't our finest hour...but this year. We play at Doak: 80k strong.

If you have never been to a FSU game when the stadium is packed, student section is screaming doing war chant, and Chief Osceola slams the spear into the 50 yard line...then you haven't truly lived. I just got chills thinking about it.

I feel incomplete not being at the game this weekend. Everyone has traveled into the capital city to cheer on the Noles to a victory. I will be watching the game at a local Seminole Bar in Uptown Charlotte with my old coworker Tim and my sorority sister Jackie tomorrow. The Seminole Club of Charlotte rents a bar every year to watch the games each season. It makes you feel like you have a little bit of Tallahassee in Charlotte. Everyone wears their FSU gear and gets super pumped for the game.

I cannot wait for kickoff! Hopefully we can pull off a win!!! 

Good luck to all your teams today! Unless they play against the Noles ;)
