October 4th
Happy fall y’all! October has hit and so has my pumpkin spice addiction. (I added it to a hot chocolate at Starbucks today, 10/10)
I am writing from my cozy bed, listening to some Autumnal Jazz and waiting for some melatonin to kick in, but before I enter dreamland, lets check out what my week looked like!
This week was fun! I spent a lot of time in the library, studying and getting ahead on assignments. But my weekday was really just me preparing for family weekend!! I was able to see my parents and little sister and spend time with them. We explored Tampa and discovered incredible places to eat and shop.
On Saturday night, we had dinner with my friend Julian and his family. It was an awesome experience and I had such a great time. Unfortunately, I didn’t get as many pictures as I would like, as I was trying to get the most out of my time with those I loved, but i’ll be sure to include what we did get.
Lastly, I just wanted to speak on how absolutely blessed I am to have the parents I do. I complained to them once or twice on how I miss having good fruit (because unfortunately for me the dining hall believes in the nutritional value of honeydew and canned mango) and they immediately took me on a shopping spree so I could get the fruit I wanted.
I felt so loved this weekend, and it made it so hard to walk away instead of throwing myself in the car and driving home with my family. But at the end of the day, I know I have to stay here and continue to make my mom and dad proud of me 🙂
Goodnight everybody! I’ll see you all next week 🙂
