Spring Break
The first week in March I headed to Panama City Beach, Florida with my roommates and several other friends for spring break. I must say it was probably one of the best weeks of my life. I had so much fun and would drive the 13 hours back there right now to relive it all again. Just being on the Gulf was awesome, it was so pretty to watch the sunset every night while lounging in the hot tub or sitting on the beach! Our condo was beautiful and had a huge balcony.. the only down side was our break was earlier than most schools and at times, in our condo, I felt like I was in a retirement community. But besides that the beach was great, met a lot of people (mostly from Michigan), and of course the bars were fun too. It was pretty nice the last couple of days there but not nearly as warm as it was the following week, oh well we still laid out and got a tan! Still trying to get back into school mode after break, only have about a month and a half left of the semester and then I am a senior, scary thought!!

High School Reunion
Obviously not my ten year.. This past Saturday I went to Greenville and saw all of my best friend's from high school. I talk to most of them often but for all of us to be together again at the same time, in the same place was awesome. I seriously haven't smiled or laughed that hard in a long time and random moments from the weekend keep coming to mind and I start laughing aloud, I think people are beginning to think I am going crazy :) School and work and life have been stressing me out lately so a break from that was very much needed.
Here is a group picture of us + my current roommate Britt
In other exciting news, 11 days till Panama City for Spring Break!!!!!!!!!

Bad Blogger
I am horrible at this.. I never ever seem to update this thing. I am going to try and be better about that. While on the topic of blogging in general, I am doing a project on social media, particularly on blogging and micro-blogging, so I am going to need everyones help with surveys and stuff :) More details to come soon.
So January has flown by and it's already almost the middle of February. January was fun, it SNOWED, school is picking up with projects and tests galore but work however has slowed down to almost extinction. My employer is cutting hours to save money so next week I am not even on the schedule and the following week I work three hours, plenty of hours to pay the rent, not. My internship is still going well, love the people I work with, the projects I have been given have kept me occupied, so far so good.
Last week I caught the infamous stomach bug and it knocked me down for a few days. Got sick Monday night and didn't eat my first meal with flavor till Friday, and let me tell you I ate and ate on Friday.
Really looking forward to Spring Break the first week of March (yup 20 days away!!!)A break from Raleigh and classes will be amazing and is already needed. I am heading to Panama City Beach, Florida with two of my roommates and a couple other friends of ours. Praying for sunny, HOT weather and just an amazing week overall!
Here are some pictures from the amazing snow day in Raleigh!!

New Semester
The spring semester started on Wednesday the 7th as did my new internship. My schedule is pretty packed for the next few months, with 2 jobs and 16 credit hours. My classes are all Junior/Senior level classes and I love finally being in concentration classes and actually learning things that are useful.
I have one class Monday/Wednesday and that is a Business Ethics class. It is really interesting so far but I am curious to see how our first quiz goes because everything we have done so far is very much up to your own opinion.
I have four classes on Tuesday and three on Thursday. On Tuesday I have a Calc lab, yes calc, and yes it has been 3 years since I have taken it. Not sure why we have to take this class but we do, we shall see how it goes. After that I have Investments and Portfolio Management, then Marketing Research, and my last class is Personal Selling. So far, so good. I have a HUGE project in both of my marketing classes, 45 minute long presentations.. It will be great experience but is a huge jump from classes with only tests to classes that require so much participation.
I am also taking an online class, Operations. I like this class better than the other online classes I have taken in the past because this one has dvd's of the professor actually teaching the material.
My internship is going great so far, I love the people I work with and the tasks I am given actually require me to think, which is awesome. My other part-time job is going.. the department I work in is going to be phased out within the next few months and they have started to cut our hours, give away our work and it has become rather stressful. Until they completely cut our job, I am going to stay around just to make some extra money, since the internship is unpaid, probably until around March. So until then I work around 20-25 hours a week, take classes, participate in AKPsi and try to have a life. So far I am making it...

Winter Break
It is so nice to be done with school and home for the holidays!! So glad that my semester is finally over and that I get a fresh start in the new year, new classes, new professors, etc. I am also starting a new internship in January. It is with ClearImage, which is a marketing firm and I will be working in the business development and marketing research departments. It is unpaid which is never fun but I am hoping the experience will be worth it! I'll keep you guys updated on that in the near future.
I got to meet Lincoln last week and he really is the cutest thing ever! I was paranoid to hold him at first, forgot how tiny newborns are. I caught on after a day, needed to because he loves to be held and I am a good auntie so of course I was picking him up whenever he made the slightest of noises. Hope to see the little reptilian again soon :) Ava is also adorable. She is such a little Princess, and I love it and her obsession with pink. My roommates always ask to see pictures of her and we are plotting to steal her and bring her to our apartment. Personally I think she would fit right in.
The weather in NC is so weird this time of year. Two days ago it was almost 70 and then today it was 35. I really hope if it continues to be so cold we see some more snow this year, we have just had some flurries and I'm kinda hoping for a little bit more.
I'm off to bake Christmas cookies, hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

Palin, DC, Birthday, Thanksgiving
November Updates:
Right before the elections I attended a Sarah Palin rally. Overall it was an incredible experience. It was the first time I had ever been around so many people at one time with similar views of my own. I hope to see more of Sarah in the future!
Some of the line to get into the arena
Bob Dole
Sarah Palin
November 13-17 I was in Northern Virginia with my little from AKPsi and her roommate. We stayed at her parents house and went to DC, Georgetown and a Redskins game. It was great to explore DC again and see all the monuments again. Georgetown was fun, lots of great shopping!
Touching the Washington Monument
In front of the Monument
In front of the Capital
On that Sunday we went to the Redskins vs. Cowboys game. It was a night game and is a pretty big rival game so it was a really neat experience for my first pro game. My little's family has a Garden Center and they have passes to seats around the stadium and we got passes to walk on the field before the game and we had seats in the corner of the end zone in the 9th row and passes to the box. Overall it was an amazing time!
View from our seats, the players running onto the field!
Waving the Redskin towel
This is how close I was to Terrell Owens! Tony Romo was just about 50ft away from me!
On the field with Lyndsey!
I turned 21 on the 20th! It was a great time and it feels so weird to be able to buy alcohol. I am officially now an old woman.
Me and my roommate Sarah at the bar
Taking a birthday shot at dinner
Getting carded for the first time
Thanksgiving Break was a great time, the Fescoe's gathered in Myrtle Beach for our annual Turkey Day celebration. We stayed at a new resort called the Ocean Reef and overall it was a good time--especially Friday when I got to celebrate my 21st again at Margaritaville. The food and the drinks were great and it is always nice to be around family that you don't get to see often.
Being 21 is fun, but it is back to the real world of work, school and finals until Dec. 12th then I will get to visit the new baby Lincoln and then Christmas break till January.
