Gameday: UNC

Yesterday was another game day, but it was even more exciting because Wake Forest was playing UNC!

It was disgustingly hot and humid (hence the ponytails), but instead of going to the student tailgate, we visited a couple of our friends' parents' tailgates!

Our friends painted themselves black and gold so they could get on TV (they did!!!). It was SO nice though, because they sat in the first row and my friends and I sat 2nd row! 

We did have a severe weather warning right before the game started, so it was actually delayed an hour.  It was storming like crazy and we had to evacuate.

But we ended up BEATING CAROLINA!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO DEACS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best game day ever!!!!

Have a great Sunday!

Gameday!!!

Hi y'all! I hope everyone had a fantastic week and I hope that everyone's gamedays went fabulously! Even though I have been to a Wake Forest football game before, it was a TON of fun to go officially as a WF student!

Unfortunately it was raining during the game so my hair did not stay smooth and EVERYTHING got wet, but I had a great time!

The best part about the game was that we WON!

I'll definitely take more pictures for next week's gameday when we play UNC!

Have a great day!!

College Girl

HELLO! I'm sorry I haven't really been posting, there is literally no time to do anything! I'm officially all settled in and I am very happy here at Wake! I met a great group of people who are such sweethearts and are all a ton of fun. I looove my dorm and my dorm room, and everyone on my halls is so nice! I'm absolutely sure that everyone is nice here because they're all southern (but I'm a bit biased :)). 

Classes start tomorrow and I've gotten all of my books already. It's so weird that basically the past couple of days have been like summer camp, with hanging out and orientation activities during the day and parties at night, but all the upperclassmen are like "Just wait. It's Work Forest for a reason." But, I'm actually glad that classes are starting. I need work to do! 

We had a themed event/competition last night and my hall went with the 'Merica theme. I was so happy and SO prepared!

I'll get back to regular posting once things calm down and I start classes. There's just so much to do and I really wanna focus on college for the time being! Thanks to everyone for y'alls support and advice throughout this whole process!!

Have a fantastic day!!

xoxo, Hannah

Kenny Chesney/Tim McGraw Concert!!

Hi y'all! Saturday night I went with my family to see Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey! My darling Eli Manning as well as my future husband Tim Tebow play at that stadium, so that made me a very happy girl! We were sitting in the boxed seats which were lovely and we got to have a delicious dinner of BBQ, grits, and strawberry shortcake. 

This picture was taken after Jake Owen's set. We missed his bit but we got to hear it when we were waiting in line!

Grace Potter and the Nocturnals!!!

Here is Grace singing "Medicine," my favorite song from the band!

Changing the set for Tim McGraw...

Snapped a few pictures before Tim came on...

He is a GORGEOUS man!

Here is Tim McGraw singing "I like it, I love it" (my favorite song of his)....so sorry that you can hear me in the background! I got really into it!

Kenny Chesney!

Grace Potter and Kenny singing a duet...

I had an absolute blast and I can't wait to go to more country concerts when I'm in the South!

Have a great day!!

The Past 13 Years

Kindergarten

My 1st Grade School Photo

The people I've been going to school with for 12 years

Today I am graduating high school. It is so weird to think about because everyone has been anticipating this day, yet we never expected it to actually come. I have been going to my current school since I was in 5th grade. My parents chose it, and in total, I've been going there for 8 years. I came to the school along with 3 fellow classmates from my previous school. In total, I've been going to school with them for 12 years. I've never known not going to school with them.

Then and now....the boy in the picture above is the same as the boy in this picture!

First Day of 8th Grade...awkward for both of us

Graduating Middle School

Middle school was rocky, as all middle school years are, but it paid off because I met my two best friends in the entire world: rMh and iCm. I have been best friends with rMh for 5 years, and iCm for about the same (we had some rocky times ;)). I can't imagine being apart from them now. We will always have our ups and downs, but we are the three best friends anyone can have. I love them so, so much. 

My first high school dance; it was homecoming, and the theme was 90's pop icons. We went as the Spice Girls!

Junior Prom; I've been best friends with these two since 6th grade!

Senior Trip 2012

I absolutely loved high school. Yes, I look back and see extremely embarrassing moments and situations that I got myself into, but they brought me to the point that I'm at now. Senior year was the best year of school that I could have possibly had, and I wouldn't change it for the world.

I have floated through social groups my entire life, but in junior year I found my group. We are the 6 closest girls in our grade, I believe. We have done everything together for the past 2 years, and I know that today will be excruciating for us as we move on from the place that brought us all together. I don't know who I would be if I hadn't met these girls. We have laughed together, cried together, and have been at each others' sides no matter what. The hardest part of graduating will be leaving these 6 girls. We will be moving to completely different parts of the country, even the world, as we go to college in Illinois, Ohio, North Carolina, New York, and Scotland. I know we'll always be there for each other as we have been since we created our inseparable bond of being best friends.

I know that my best friends read this blog and I want all of you to know that I love y'all so, so much. LPQ Crew forever!

Congratulations to the Class of 2012. I love all of you!
