H-A-L-L-O-W-E-E-N





I can't wait for Halloween weekend! I love everything about this holiday! I am tempted to just stay home and hand out candy, but I know that will never happen. ha. Anyway, I went to Saw 6 this last weekend and I was very disappointed. I didn't feel it was as good as all the others and actually made me not want to go to the seventh one. Other than that I am super excited for this weekend! Do not know what I am going to do, but am still excited.


I had a Chem test on Monday and a 8 page paper due on Friday so I am busy, busy. I am on two volleyball teams this semester so that is another thing to look forward to, but adds to my list of things going on. I actually have my first game for the Co-ed team I am on tonight, but I have a-lot of homework and do not know if I will be able to make it. Tomorrow is already Wednesday, I am glad this week is going by fast. But that also means I better figure out what I am doing for Halloween soon. Well thats all for now! Counting down the days still....

*40 Days and Counting*

There are 40 days of school left until Christmas vacation and yes, I am already counting down. I cannot wait to have almost a whole month off to not do anything and I am going to love it! School is the same old. Busy. Stressful. Taking it one day at a time.

This last weekend was nice though. Spent most of my time enjoying the somewhat warm weather. The fall and Halloween season are my favorite times of the year. I love the decorations and leaves all over the ground that crackle when you walk on them, but I hate it at the same time, knowing it will soon come to an end and snow is right around the corner. I also carved my first pumpkin this weekend. Well first one since I was like 7 years old. I never realized that it is an extremely hard task to do. If your wondering I tried to carve a bat on my pumpkin by hand...It did not look good and not to mention I almost took off a finger doing it.


I cannot believe that fall breather is already over. Last time I wrote about how I was so excited for it and now I wonder where the time went. It was very relaxing though. I ended up just hanging out, watching movies and doing some homework (very little). I am super excited for some of the new movies that are coming out in support of the Halloween season and of course will be going to at least one of the "haunted farm" places around the area. I wish I was a little kid so I could go Trick or Treating...I loved doing that as a kid. Do you think anyone would give candy to a 19 year old girl on Halloween? ha. Maybe I will try anyway! Hope all is well.
Till next time -Cami

Girlfriend Getaway= A Success




This weekend was a BLAST! I recommend all you ladies out there do this "Girltime Getaway" with either your friends or your mom or girl relatives. There are two woman that put it on and it happens about two times a month. What you do is, you get on a bus (meeting most of the time in the FM area) and they take you places. Places meaning that you have no idea what or where they are. You pay a set fee of usually less than $200 and that includes your meals, the places you stop and your hotel; basically everything. It was so much fun, you guys have no idea!

We met here in Moorhead and left on Saturday morning at 7:00. Our first stop was a horse ranch in Fergus Falls where we got to tour the facilities and learn about the different events that take place there. From there we stopped in Sauk Centre and went to an Alpaca farm. It was so interesting and I learned a-lot about these creatures that I did not even know existed. ha. Next, we stopped in St. Cloud and went to a really fancy purse place called Lillian's. From there we went to a beauty school in St. Cloud and got pedicures. From there we went to a piano bar and got to see the theater and the largest urinal in Minnesota. Then we went to our hotel that was located in Lake Elmo. That night we had a comedian that literally made my stomach hurt from laughing so hard. On Sunday, we went to an Apple Orchard and got a cruise on a little boat on the clearest lake in Minnesota. We also took a trolley ride in Stillwater and got to see some giant mansions. We got home at about 7:00 sunday night.

It was so much fun to see all of these places that I would not normally go to. It was fun just to get away from this area and kick back. There is one thing I learned though; when you get 54 older woman together for a whole weekend it is pure madness! Everyone should do this! It was absolutely amazing!

That is basically all that is exciting right now to talk about. School is still hard. Like always! I am sad that my trip is over, but looking forward to fall break coming up next week. It is still cold and rainy out and I still hate it. Keep safe everyone and until next time!
