Date Day!

After losing in the semi-finals of the southland conference tournament Luke and I decided to makeup a date we missed last week and head to the downtown aquarium :)
I must say it was one of the best days I've had all semester. Here are my highlights :)

not long now little lizard comes to visit ^_^

i'm technologically challenged

So, in the last few months I have been through 3 laptops...I swear I touch technology and it implodes...literally, and as a result I have been unable to post photos and updates on my life.
Also I've hardly been taking any photos, so the last couple of months have been undocumented :(
Sad I know.
But I've finally gotten my grubby hands on a beautiful Macbook pro and I'm determined to kickstart some camera work pronto!

Speaking of determination, this summer Luke and I will be getting fit! I'm going to be going to the gym, eating healthy and feeling good :)

christmas with the gunstreams

my first texan christmas;
it was sad to not be with my family and everyone i loved, but i was very spoilt by luke's family and had a wonderful time;
merry christmas everyone ^_^

hello frisco!

After winning the semi-finals last night and continuing our undefeated season, the bearkats are off to the FCS national champtionship game...in football that is ;)
So proud of our boys and so proud to be a bearkat...also very proud of the fact that I GOT ON ESPN!
here is a montage of our journey :P

look out frisco...the bearkats are coming!!!

it's beginning to look a lot like christmas!

still no clue where i will be on christmas day;
but at this stage it is highly likely i will be hiding under my cover trying to forget about the fact i won't be spending it at home with my family. i feel like a grinch refusing offers to go home with friends, but it just wont be the same as long as it isn't with them :(
for the meanwhile though i am thoroughly enjoying the lead up!
