Okay so today we moved into our permanent dwelling for the next six months, and can I say its Temple Johnson and Hardwick all over again. To my TU peeps remember walking to the cafe through the p-way and taking the elevator up to 3rd floor or 5th depending on who you were visting. And remember how tight that space was with your lil area on one side and that long wanna-be desk under neath the windows that pulled out towards you so no one could try to commit suicide. Well imagine that small lil space minus your roomates side, no elevator, threee flights of stairs and that describes my new living quaters. Im not complaining thought Im just glad we have indoor plumbing no more walking across the road to pee and shower. Its like the Hilton up in this piece. Ill take pics and post in the morning. But its cool cuz yall know I hooked my lil area up. right.
So let me break it down how being nosy and thinking ahead like inspector gadget always pays off. (Shout out to Kee and Kameel my nosy folk) So I knew people that were here for six months and we were replacing. So I hooked up with them like the first or second night we were here because they were already staying in the building. So of course they were packing and trying to take the least amount of stuff with them. So Im like well save me that, and that and Ill surely use that, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! So I was able to lock down some good stuff. Well when we moved in all the people that went home left all there stuff they no longer wanted in the center of the floor. It was like going to a flea market, I felt like a lil homeless person rummaging through people's trash. (One persons trash is another persons treasure!) But I hooked it up. Im the only one who has pink plastic drawers with matching pink and fuschia complete bed set. A lil pink candy dish. My shower curtain that blocks off the front of my area is nice Its silver with metallic circles. Colette is going to send me a bright one like my personality to really sit it off. The only thing that is missing is pics of my girls, my love and family. I have two metal lockers that I can get some magnets and put pics on so send me some pics people its time to download those digital pics and print out pictures so I can hang. I wonder if they sell those fabric letters or stick on pics cuz I was going to put them on my lil back splash to hook that up. The pics will give describe it all. But it feels a lil more like home now.
Tomorrow is Monday and I am going full speed ahead with my workout plan and eating schedule. I will blog about that whole process I start off real strong then start fading come that 3rd 4th week. I have a personal trainer so hopefully that will help keep me on target.
What's your favorite memory about college? I would have to say mine was joining my sorority! SIGMA GAMMA RHO I have some strong sisters for life who I love very much we had so much fun party strolling, facilitating campus programs, and of course stepping!!

So, now you need pics...can we send them over email or do we have to mail them? Be strong-stay focused with that work-out plan...don't let all that good food hold you down...I would have problems b/c it looks like they got yall down there throwing down! However, I know you can do it especially with a trainer...give me a trainer and a chef please and I'll come out looking like J-Lo or Beyonce even after three kids...lol. Well, I have a paper to write for my last week of class. I'll be in touch. Love Kee

It's okay Rob, I get teased all the time for the amount of pink I wear or pick out for something. We know it's in your heart!!
EEEE-YIIIPPPP
Hey Rob, I'll send you Green pillow that should work wonders in your room :)
College part two is right after seeing those pics. Well this time you are getting paid vs. the other way around. Chrissy's on the mic babe and we miss ya Nurse Robyn (like the person not like the bird)...Pink is cute to decorate a door room but have never viewed it on RHOalty! So who gets the top bunk and did you host your bed up on cinder blocks like at TU (ha) anyway to get more storage room right...will that work on a house (ha).
Keep making the world a better place both locally and internationally (that is it I am applying for Hallmark....at $5 a card the salaries must be good)
Robyn I am disheartened to see all of that pink, omg. I do admit that I like a pink throw every now and then but sweetie....:) You have brought back so many memories of Hardwick Hall for me "471 Hardwick, ya heard!"
OKAY I got it too much pink. But I have no choice it was that are black and I can't be morbid. Well Colette hooked my up with a multi-colored shower curtain. So I will send out some pics of my new area. Chris no one is on the top bunk the entire 4x6 space is my own. And yes it is on wood blocks, like we did back at TU!!! Wow those were the days!
