Freshman Year is Over.


Well, I am officially finished with my first year of college. That really doesn't feel possible, but I guess it must be. I feel like I should post something supper deep about all that I learned this year and the amazing friends I made and all that junk, but I don't really feel like it. I did learn a lot and I made some wonderful friends, but I don't feel like talking about it. So, instead I am going to show you my school year in pictures, and you can be as philosophical as you want in your interpretation of them (but seriously, don't. Just enjoy them.) Most of these pictures are stolen from my awesome cousin Charlotte. Without her, I would have no photo evidence  that I even came to college. So here we go.
Speaking of Char, here is the first picture we took as official Bethel Students.  So exciting!
This is a picture of my room right after I moved in. Notice how clean it is? Yeah, that changed.

Good times during freshman orientation, hanging out at the Helm cause we thought we were cool.
Choir! I loved singing with these lovely people. You know you have it good when "family" is the first word that comes to mind when you think of your choir.

Freezing at a soccer game? Totally worth it! Hooray for school spirit!
No but seriously, it was cold.
We all fit in one bath tub. I guess that's pretty cool, right?

The coolest Hoodrats you will ever meet.
(The book behind Char and me is called "The Mormon People" and I find that incredibly humorous. 

Yay for friends!
Midnight Breakfast! We got second place with out Awkward Family Photo.

Not sure if this was actually taken during finals week, but this is a pretty accurate description of how we all felt during our first college finals week. 
Before I got my hair cut.

After. I donated 11 inches!
We went out to dinner to spend our winnings from Midnight Breakfast and celebrate my birthday. We had an awesome waitress who got in the picture with us. 

Mach For Life in Washington, D.C! It was freezing, but it was amazing. 

This girl. We were sort of forced into friendship with our partner research paper for block (we both still shudder when were think about it), and I will forever be thankful for that. We went from sort of friends to best friends to future roommates, and it is awesome. This is probably the only good thing that came from that paper. 
Murder Mystery Party with the college group from church.
We bought a baby chicken in Chapel! 
Midnight Breakfast, take two. This time as Pinterest. And we won second place again! I got to be Grumpy Cat!
Well, that is it. Now I have to pack up my room, say my goodbyes, and go home. It is definitely bittersweet. And now, to end the last post of the school year, I will give you this:
