Famous Last Words:Halfway There

Half way through the fall semester.

That sounds absoloutely crazy. I personally feel like the semester just began yesterday. Most people tend to thing that due to the circumstances of this year, that it is creeping along at a snails pace and has been the longest year ever. However, I feel as if this has been the quickest year of my life. I feel as though yesterday it was the first of the year and we had no idea what was about to hit us.

This fall semester has been pretty average compared to past semesters but that does not mean it has not been fun or carried with it some great memories. Things have sure been different this year, but thankful my friends and I have made the most of it all.

We have been able to take things slow and enjoy this time of year in a different way than ever before. We have enjoyed lots of walks, outdoor study dates and picnics.

Of course my favorite aspect of the semester is welcoming home my new bestfriend Luka. In any other "normal" semester, getting a puppy would be out of the question. But due to a more relaxed schedule it was the perfect timing. I have now had my baby for a little over a month and she has become the best part of my days. She has grown so much so quickly and it is exciting and heartbreaking all at the same time. I love the little ball of energy so very much.

As the weather starts to turn more into fall and winter, I can not wait to start to curl up on the couch with a good book in one hand, a coffee in the other, and Luke laying right next to me.

Introduction to Me:)

This is me.... (Image Information: personal photo of me; photo from August 2020.) My name is Carlee and I am entering into my Senior year!! (Super exciting, scary and sad all at the same time) The past three years have flown by and I have no doubt that this one will be the same. Hopefully, it doesn't go too fast, as I am still in the process of figuring out what my life will look like after graduating. I had always been the student in college that took as many classes as possible to try and graduate early until I realized that there was no fun in that. Now I am trying to enjoy my last year, take it as it comes and live in the moment. Unrelated to school, I enjoy doing a lot of different random things. Thanks to quarantine, I have gone from a place where I could be featured on America's Worst Chefs to an advanced novice (those two words don't really belong together but you get the point) in all things sushi and tacos. I also have a great appreciation for reading and even g...

Week 3 Story: Wise Owl, Greedy King

There once was a king who's land had fallen into a tretcherous despair. The land was not producing crops and the people had become poor and famished.
