Back to School :)
Today is the first day of my junior year!

Although I sometimes wish I could be in a different town than where I grew up, I am happy to be at Virginia Tech. I have two years down and hopefully only two to go before I head to grad school! I desperately wish VT had a 5 year teaching program, but that ain't gonna happen.
Today my class load isn't too bad, but I have work 3-6. Tomorrow I have four classes and I'm not done until 8:00 pm...boo!
I'll let y'all know later in the week how everything goes :) So far, I have had one professor who is OBSESSED with Harry Potter. I think I can live with that.
On another note, I think I'm going to start a 101in 1001 challenge. I saw this idea on several blogs and I am dying to see if I can do it. If I start today, August 22, 2011, that means I will have until May 17, 2014 to finish my list. Think I can do it?
I'm going to start my list later and I'll post it once I have it finished :) I might also make a junior year goals list...or maybe combine the two!
I'm sitting under a tree and acorns are falling everywhere and I don't want to be hit in the head - so I'm heading inside! Good luck to everyone else starting fall classes :)

Sunday Verse
It is God who arms me with strength
and keeps my way secure.
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer;
he causes me to stand on the heights.
He trains my hands for battle;
my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer;
he causes me to stand on the heights.
He trains my hands for battle;
my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
- Psalm 18:32-34

Friday Fun: New Movies
I've been to a few movies recently, (The Help...Crazy, Stupid Love), and I left feeling just as happy with the previews as I was about the movie itself! Here are some upcoming movies I'm excited about seeing:
(Not all of these were previews from those movies)

NEW YEAR'S EVE: Holy moly, I get chills whenever I see this preview. This movie is full of awesome actors and just looks so good! I love when they do multiple story lines.
HAPPY FEET TWO: Fun fact...I love cartoons. And penguins. The first one is such a good movie and I think this one is promising as well!
TOWER HEIST: Haven't seen Eddie Murphy in a while, but this looks like it could be a good one. I love comedy/action movies, just like The Other Guys.
PUSS IN BOOTS: Who didn't love his signature sad face in the Shrek movie?! Like I said earlier, I lovvvve cartoons so, naturally, I am excited for this.
| Melts my lil heart |
THE VOW: Again with the chills. Rachel McAdams + Channing Tatum + romantic drama makes this Nicholas Sparks-esque movie at the top of my list!
What do y'all think? Did I miss any good ones? (Besides Breaking Dawn...but I'm trying to not sound like a Twilight freak.)
happy weekend :)

What I'm Loving Wednesday!
WILW today with Jamie at This Kind of Love!
I'm loving that today was the first day of school for the kiddies! I absolutely loved being back at work, seeing all the Back to School outfits, new shoes and backpacks and hearing all about their days! I miss those days. It was exciting and the kids were really excited - except one 3rd grader who told me school is "boring" already! Oh boy.
I'm loving that I got to take SB on his first trip blueberry picking :) We went to Windrush Farm in Newport. We ended up with just under 3 lbs of delicious blueberries.
I'm loving my recent Pintrest finds (duh) !
The last one is good inspiration for the semester...
I'm loving my new Lilly planner
Not excited to go back to school, but I'm always up for a fresh new agenda.
I'm loving that I'm getting to spend so much time with my boy :) I feel like I'm a little spoiled...I'm going to be lost when he leaves next week! Eek :( But we've had lots of fun lunch/dinner dates, movie nights and just hang out time. Hang out time is my favorite :)
That's all, folks!
