Hugging my parents as they head out my dorm room door

Wiping away tears and finishing the decor

Checking the time for 4:30 p.m, where I meet who's all on my floor


Making new friends and finding out where everyone is from

Excited for the week's festivities and meeting new people, including alum

Running through the columns and eating tiger stripe ice cream, yum!


Finding out my roommate and I share the same birthday

It that how they paired us?...no way!

Family is here for Labor Day weekend, I'm 18 years old today!


Walking 22 minutes across campus to my 10 a.m. class

Listening to a Spotify playlist while unfamiliar faces pass

Signed up for Mizzou Rec cycling that basically kicked my…..


Obsessing over the stir fry at the dining hall

Dreading Sunday nights when the laundry room is a complete free-for-all

Counting down the days until break, where I won't need to give my mom a facetime call


Reserving Monday nights for Bachelorette viewing

Hiking, hammocking and sunset brewing

Exploring Columbia, Missouri with my pals...what else would we be doing?


Traveled with magazine club….what up New York, I'm here!

Now it's second semester and time for the snow to disappear

Rushed Kappa Alpha Theta….highlight of the new year


Now it's present day….let's get you up to date

Playing intramural soccer, Tuesday night's at 8

Freshman year at Mizzou….I'd say it's pretty great
