Two More Weeks, my foot is in the door

Ten days before I come home. Twelve lectures and four finals.
It can't possibly go by fast enough.

On the bright side, I went to meet my Bronco Buddy on Friday!
After a four hour drive to Illinois, we walked in the front door to this wonderful sign.
Then two young men showed up to escort us to the classroom. Just outside the door, was our school flag! These kids were so excited, me and Elise were the first Bronco Buddies around the corner and all the kids were looking toward the door and there was a stage-whispered chorus of "They're here!"
They gave us a tour of their school and then we did a Q & A with them. After that we had pizza, played kickball, and gave the kids some gifts! I got Kayla a Western shirt that matched one of mine, as well as a Scooby Doo shirt. She also got a scrapbook and some of my paper and stickers, because had spoken about scrapbooking our letters and meeting.
She loved it all. She surprised me with a present too! She got me some stickers for MY scrapbook and a pretty purple ribbon that said "love" with hearts all over it. I'll be sure to use it in my scrapbook of our letters!

The day was over way too fast and we had to start the FIVE hour drive back (time change).

I won't post the pics of me and Kayla, since she's 9 and I'm sure her parents don't want her face all over the internet. :) But for the family--I'll show you guys when I get home!

That's really all the news I have.

I went to Copper Beech this weekend and hung out with the girls and some of their friends.
It was nice to hang with them before I go home for the summer. Especially since I can't hang with them next weekend. It's my last weekend for the year and Linds, her mom, her grandma, and I are going to see Hairspray here. Then, hopefully, we'll hang out. We'll probably have a Greek/Study marathon. By that I mean, we'll watch a ton of Greek, take a break and study for finals, and then watch more Greek, and then study...blah blah. It'll be great. :)

One thing I'm worried about, other than finals of course, is that the deadline for applying to be a junior counselor is fast approaching and the a question I need answered has not been replied to by the guy I'm supposed to email with questions! I'm concerned I won't be able to apply. And the question I asked could determine if I can or not too. I think I may be lacking a requirement. :/ Guess we'll find out if he EVER emails me back.

Let's hope!

Be home soon! <3
