Lead Out Loud :)

This past weekend my Ag Sales team and I made a much needed trip to Camp Clements for an event called "Super Saturday". Since we won the state contest, we will be attending Nationals in Indianapolis, Indiana in October. The rules have changed tremendously from state to nationals  so the practice this weekend was extremely helpful. We got to spend the night in the cabins and it felt just like we were at camp again. I met so many new people and saw many faces that I had seen numerous times at various FFA events in the past. It's so amazing to me how many new friends I make at FFA events. Everyone has something in common there so it's easy to talk and keep up conversations and there are never any judgments. I had SO much fun with Scott, Tatum and Mr. Greene and I'm pretty sure the conversations in the van on the way there and back were my favorite part. This weekend made me miss camp and and all the ag trips I have taken in the last four years and its hard to believe that after October, I will never be attending another ag trip...ever! :( It's sad, but I'm happy that I get to go to college knowing that I have so many friendships that I wouldn't have without having been in the National FFA Organization.

A bit of random information...

     So, I'm loving this blog thing but I have a teeny problem... I have absolutely nothing to write about! So, nevertheless, I asked Nicole what I should write about and she said, "Write about me!" I thought this would be a joke post but after thinking about it for a moment I realized that if anyone deserved to have a blog written about them it would definitely have to be my 2 best friends in the entireeeee world: Nicole and Hannah <3

     Nicole has been my best friend for soo many years now. I can remember spending every single day of my life with her there for about 2 years! I know absolutely everything about her and I think it's safe to say that I know her better than she knows herself. She is the funniest and most outgoing person I know. She has mad dance skills that can't be matched ;) I love her so much and no matter how many miles away she moves she will always be my sister and other half!!

     Hannah... hmm where to begin...  She is the most caring and honest person I know. However, don't let that fool you because she is a tad bit crazy as well. Her bubbly personality makes her always fun and a joy to be around. She is sooo encouraging and I can't thank her enough for being there for me whenever I need her. She will always be my best friend! 

    

A New Chapter in life...

     Well, I have been waiting for this day for too long, however, now that it's here.... I'm not at all ready! On August 25th, I will be packing my things and heading off to college!  It's going to be so hard to say goodbye to every single friend of mine as we go our separate ways. I can't even begin to explain how sad I am going to be when I won't have any friends around to talk to. It also doesn't help that I'm extremely shy :( lol Nicole scheduled a photo shoot for all of our friends as a last goodbye. I'm excited to get all of our gang together again to just goof off and be ourselves. I will miss them all dearly! I'll be sad but I also know that this is just a new chapter in life and our paths will cross again in time.
