Easter Blessings

Happy Easter everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend spending time with family and friends. I know that I truly enjoyed celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ with my loved ones. There is nothing better than praising God while being surrounded by the abundant love of friends and family. Every Easter my family and I all go to church together and then afterward we get together, enjoy a great meal and simply enjoy one another’s company. It’s so wonderful to be able to see so many family members that I haven’t seen in a while. Being away at college hasn’t allowed me to see my family as much and I am truly thankful and blessed when I am given the opportunity to do so. Easter is truly all about celebrating the blessing that we are given because of Jesus Christ being crucified on the cross for our sins. I know that I am truly blessed to be surrounded by such an amazing and supportive family who also shares a love for Jesus Christ.

How do you spend your Easter weekend? I would love to hear your thoughts and traditions. There are so many ways that people celebrate. Feel free to share and comment below! Again, Happy Easter everyone!

    I am glad you had a great Easter, it is always great to see family and friends. I got the opportunity to spend Easter with my best friend and second family. We were able the attend church and then gather to eat a large meal. My friend has a large family, so she has many siblings. After the meal we hung out for a while playing card games and having some great laughs. A day of relaxation was definitely needed as the end of the semester is upon us.

    Happy Easter to you as well! My family also has traditions that we do every year! This year, my brother and I sand at church, which was nice. My parents really enjoyed being able to see all my siblings together for the first time since Christmas. I have younger cousins and I got to be the Easter bunny and hide all the eggs, so that was fun to watch. Glad you enjoyed your holiday!

    Happy Easter! I am glad to hear yours was great. My family was lucky enough to have some of the other side of our family from Canton drive down and spend it with us. However this just meant more food would need to be made. More people was no match to my mom and my aunts, they still made to much.

The End is Near

One of my first blog posts was about why I chose Ohio Northern University to be my home for the next four years of my life. I cannot believe that time has gone by so fast. I am not typically one to get very emotional, but there is something about leaving a large piece of you behind and moving on to the next thing. I decided to close out my final blog post with things that I took away from the year as I only have about a week left of my freshman year. Time Moves Faster Than You Think No matter how many pictures were taken, time will only continue forward and it seems to be moving faster. Before you know it college will simply be a small piece of your life with amazing memories that will last you a lifetime. Enjoy each moment while you have it, because time truly does go by fast. You Don’t Have To Be The Same Person You Were in High School Wow, this could not be any truer. This can be who you associate with, the type of grades you get and even clubs or organizations you join

Spring Has Sprung!

I don’t know about you, but I am absolutely LOVING this spring weather! I enjoy being able to open the window in my dorm to let in fresh air, go for walks around the green monster and of course being able to wear all my spring clothes that have been in the back of my closet for too long. Well the time is here! I decided I would share one of my favorite things to wear during the spring! Birkenstocks! Yes, I know they aren’t the most attractive pair of shoes, but they are actually VERY comfortable. Also, Birkenstock will repair your shoes if something is to happen to your beloved Birks or you have simply just worn-out certain parts of them. They are close to $100, but I think you can justify that price when you see all the great features and benefits that come with them. So, why wouldn’t you want a pair of sandals that are awesome for your feet versus your typical Old Navy black rubber flip flops? What is your favorite thing to wear in the spring? I wo

Perks of Being a College Student

Although growing up and becoming an adult may stink, there are perks about being a college student. One of the best perks are student discounts at various stores.

Here they are: FedEx Office : Using your student ID, you can save 30 percent on documents and 20 percent on shipping services. Sam’s Club: When signing up for a $40 Collegiate Membership at Sam’s Club students receive a $15 gift card.
