Finally Initiated!

Friday was such an exciting day. Why? Because I am finally an initiated sister of Theta Phi Alpha!


Above is a picture of my pledge sisters and I, who I love more than the world!

My school does this special thing where each sorority and fraternity give us "pledge names" when we cross over. The chapters each vote on a name that they think describes us. My Big gave me a tote bag with my pledge name on it!:


This is why I was named Belle:
I am pretty smart (or so they think haha), I LOVE Disney, and I'm a Southern Belle! I absolutely love my pledge name :)

Afterwards we went out to celebrate:


It is seriously a night I will remember for the rest of my life. I am so excited to officially be part of a wonderful fraternity and apart of Panhel!

Frist Day of the Semester!

Today was an amazing first day of my second year at St. John's. It started out dreadful with a three hour calculus class at 10:40. I was not looking forward to it, but the professor was really cool. Three hours flew by and before I knew it I was done!

After that, I went with my room mates to the city to go get some things for the room. We went to Lush in Herald Square and it was so much fun. I've been in the store in Atlanta a few times but I never knew much about it. But I can definitely say now I feel in LOVE with it. We bought soap for our room called Honey I Washed the Kids and it smells so good!

I also bought a lipgloss which is supposedly supposed to last a year from their new cosmetic line called Emotional Brilliance. The color is very natural and is good for going out or just going to class. I absolutely love it and can't wait to sport it tomorrow!

PS:
While waiting for the Subway to go back to Queens, we spotted Lilly (aka: the best friend) from the Princess Diaries!


It definitely made my day! Hopefully I'll see more celebrity sightings this semester!

Hope you all are having a lovely week!

All Moved In!

What a day it has been! I have been up since 6:30 this morning because I could not stop thinking of today! We packed the car last night so we didn't have to worry about it this morning.


The car was so packed things kept falling on top of me when we made turns- it was quite the hour car ride from my aunt's house in Westchester. Finally, we made it to Queens and I was so excited. My room mate and I shrieked when we saw each other. It had been a long four months away from each other. It only took about an hour and a half before we finished decorating my part of the dorm!



It's not quite that done yet, but this is pretty much the gist of it! It was sooo hard saying goodbye to my mom and it makes me wanna tear up just thinking about it. I'm not gonna be able to see her until Thanksgiving and she is like my best friend. Good thing we text each other like everyday, and if she finally learns how to use skype, I'm sure we'll be doing that too. It's been pretty bad without my boyfriend too- and I won't be able to see him until Christmas break! But him and all of my family are such good supporters. I wouldn't be able to do anything without them.

I am so ready for this semester though. I feel like great things are gonna happen and I can't wait to experience them!
