Thankful 9.

Today, I am thankful for the ADORABLE, FUN, ENERGETIC, KIND, and CARING Roommates.

If any of you remember, it's always been a struggle for me to make any girlfriends. I have always had a few, but never a lot. I am always surrounded with guy friends, which is never a bad thing because I love them all, but sometimes it's nice to be surrounded with a bunch of girls and have that girl talk and laugh at girly stuff and do girly things. I have also struggled finding roommates every year except for my sophomore year. That was the last year I knew every one living in my apartment/house. And after that, I've only been friends with 1 or 2 of my roommates and that was hard. I constantly found myself away from my home or in my room because I just didn't click with my roomies.

This year has been a HUGE blessing in my life. I honestly don't know how I got so lucky. Lots of plans changed and I was nervous about who all of my roommates were going to be because

technically, I was only friends with Kaycie at that point. But the Lord sure did bless me. I am

now blessed to have 5 AMAZING girls as my roommates and friends! Who are these girls? Let me introduce you-

This is Sweet Kaycie- aka the roommate aka the best friend in my life. You probably already know this girl, but if you don't - she is fantastic! I am so glad after all these years we are finally living together! She is the peanut butter to my jelly. I don't know what I'd do without her in my life. She has been there for me through EVERYTHING and I know I can always trust her and talk to her. I know she loves me and wants what is best for me. She is a great lady and I am grateful to have her as a friend and roomie.

Meet Suzy Q. Darling, Hot, Fun girl. Suzanne is a fantastic girl and a wonderful roommate. I know that she legitimately cares for me and my happiness. She makes me feel better when I am sad and laughs at me when I am ridiculous. I know I can always turn to her because she is a great listener. One of the most self-less girls I know, and she deserves the best. She also likes to have jam sessions in my car and is up for party hopping. Suz knows how to have a good time! I am so glad Suzy Q has come into my life this year.

This is cutie-pa-tootie Brittany Dahlin. Britt loves to have fun, which I love to do as well! She makes the best faces and will crack me up constantly! Really, this girl is a riot! She also is such a good friend; she's a good listener and gives great advice! She listens to me ramble on and on about dumb things, and I listen to her. This girl is also on her toes; she works hard as a student and LOVES her job! She is an art major so her creative side comes out a lot and just continues to amaze me. I love Miss Britt Dahlin.

Meet Miss Amelia Bedelia. My acid in my life. I seriously LOVE this girl and am so glad we've become great friends! I worked with one of her best friends last year, who was supposed to live with us, but that fell through and I'm so glad Mia still lived here! She is wonderful and we get along so well! She is so fun to hang out with! My love for her has just grown so much over this semester! Sometimes I feel like we are the same person, which always makes things fun cause I know she loves me for me.

This is Miss Megan Sollis. She is ADORABLE to say the least. Unfortunately, our schedules clash a lot so I hardly get to see her most of the time! Megan loves to cook- especially vegetables and will find creative ways to make them. She is also so fun and quirky! And if you haven't seen her bust a move, you should probably ask her because she has the GREATEST dance moves I've ever seen! And she always seems so excited and happy to see me when I walk in the door! I sure do love this Megan of mine.

So there you have it. Maybe I bored you by my novel I just wrote or maybe you are jealous because my roommates are FANTASTIC! I am so lucky to have these beautiful and fun girls in my life!

I got real lucky.
