a look at the past (junior year)

the only year i lived with someone the whole year.. this year i went on a missions trip to atlanta, georgia and fell in love with the south and the people.i also made some amazing friendships on this trip..i really dont remember anything big that happened so onto the pictures....

 on labor day we decided to go to the "beach" which is actually just lake michigan but anyways we ended up getting lost a bunch of times, eventually we got there and had a lot of fun. it was a good day.

 i lived with these 6 girls in logan village. we called our townhouse our toho.it was an intense and interesting year, with lots of fighting, crying, and laughing. i never really felt welcome and half the time i didnt want to be there. it was then that i realized that they werent really my friends but since it was my junior year there was no time to change my whole core group of friends. when sign ups came for rooming the next year they totally left me out and didnt even ask, i would have said no if they would have but they didnt they kept it all secret. talk about feeling left out, thats how i've always felt with them for realz. which im no longer friends with any of them.

 i lived with emma and brittany downstairs in the cave. we had deep conversations and i did enjoy living with them. however i always felt that my "friends" (the girls upstairs) had treated them way better than they had ever treated me so that made me resent them in a way.

 emily and i had a class together and one of the requirements was to learn a language from someone. we chose Portuguese. we struggled thru that together and became close. :)

the first and only jv soccer game i went too. katie whos in the blue was dating this guy at the time and we went for her. katie is one of my closest friends and i wouldnt have gotten thru my time at bethel without her. jordan whos in the middle was the same major as me so we had a ton of classes together and got to know each other that way. she was also one of my RA's sophmore year. 

 powderpuff. this was the year that we won it all.

 snowtubing with bethel, except that we went to the wrong place and it was just us and a few others. it was the first time i had gone with my youth group many years ago. it was a really good time and it was then that i got to know faith the girl on the end in the blue a lot better.

 ice skating with bethel. my skates were way to big so i fell a bunch of times.

 this is shrimpy.aka colette, we worked together since freshmen year. she took me to walmart and mcdonalds a lot this year. we can talk about anything and everything. she was my lifesaver while working after kalin decided to quit.

 my normal work crew. we were taking pictures because i was going to quit, now if that only would have happened.

 the group from bethel.. spring break. atlanta missions team. so many memories on this trip, if i started to talk about it this post would be 10 X longer than it already is. God really blessed me on this trip and gave me some amazing friendships that i wouldnt take back for the world.

 long arms, aka jessica. we met on the missions trip and formed a great friendship! 

 i received this beautiful car.
