Bye Bye, Twenty One

Well, its official. I am in my last twenty four hours of being twenty one. Wednesday I will be turning 22 on 2-22-12. I have tons of mixed feelings about it. Twenty one is the one age that younger adults cant wait for, and older adults seem to wish they could return to. Its also a year all about having fun, living free, and being young! And oh, what a great year it was! Here are a few highlights:
<first legal grown up drink>
 <beautiful way to celebrate 4th of July with lovely friends and family>
 <going to see Taylor Swift with good friends>
 <first trip to Gorgeous South Beach>
 <Redneck'ing with old friends>
 <meeting our fave, Luke Bryan in PCB over SB>
 <cheering on the NOLES at every home game>
<embraced a winter full of love, family, and Christmas lights>

While the past year has been great, I still anticipate twenty two. I fear that ill feel "old". I loved twenty one! Had a blast living up to the twenty one year old ways of life.
My plans for the next couple of years include finishing my first degree at FSU then working towards a nursing degree. I predict that twenty two will be a stressful, yet productive year. Hopefully the year will bring new love, luck, passion, and adventures!
Bring it on, twenty two.

Spring Break

In twelve days my four gal pals and I will be on the way to Key West for an amazing Spring Break experience!
One thing about me that you must understand is that I LOVE to craft! Having said, I took it upon myself to create some really great beach "gear" for each girl. These items include personalized drinking jugs, glittery coozies, crazy straws, and personalized foam visors with cute fake flowers on top! (picture to come). Ill probably add a few other items like candy, a few magazines, gum, and mini liquor bottles like you would get on an airplane. I figure that since we will all five be spending a total of twenty five hours in the same car over six days we could use a few fun items like that.
Another thing about me is that I LOVE spring break! Take notice: I do not enjoy people falling off balconies, getting too friendly with strangers, or "girls gone wild".. I do enjoy laying on the beach with a mixed drink, hanging with my gals, and letting off steam on a beautiful island! The excitement alone is part of the fun. Stay tuned to see pictures from the trip!
