Finally

We'll we finally moved into our apartment yesterday. It was a lot of work, but it was worth it. We haven't quite gotten everything unpacked yet, but I'm still uber excited. Brittany and my step-dad helped us get everything down there. Brittany even spent the night. I love her! The puppies were a little stressed, but they were better this morning. We have to take them outside on a leash, so that's always fun since they're used to being able to run around. We had to come back for Dustin to go to work and to bring Jordyn home, so we're just staying the night up here. I hate that I had to leave my babies alone after just one night in a strange place. I'm sure they'll be happy to see us Monday! We don't have Internet at our apartment yet, so my blogs will probably dwindle in number more so than they already have. Lol. I'll post pics next time though!

The end

Well today was the first day of finals, and I only had one, Spanish. I wasn't too stressed about it; I enjoy Spanish. I ended up with an A for the semester, so go me! I don't have any finals tomorrow, go me again! Monday I have chem. 2, and Tuesday I have animal science. That will officially end my time at Northeast. It's bittersweet. I'm ready to move on, but I will miss Northeast. I really have enjoyed my time there. I wrote a "Dear John" type break-up letter to Northeast for The Beacon. I post it here for your reading pleasure.

Dear Northeast,



These words have lain heavy on my heart for some time now. I know there is no easy way to say this. I know that I have given you some of the best years of your life and you mine, but sadly, I feel it is time for me to move on. Please do not cry. I could not bear to see it. I know this is hard for you. I have enjoyed our time together; truly, I have. It is not you; it is I. I have grown too big for this small Taco Bell-less town. I need someone who can satisfy my “fourth meal” cravings, and you just cannot do that for me. I will miss you. I truly will. I will take everything you have given me wherever I go. Henceforth, I shall always fear the almighty wrath of yellow parking spaces. Our memories are something no one can take away from us. I will always love you my dear Northeast, and I will never forget you.


Love always,


Lindsay Hill

On another note, I received a community college transfer scholarship to Mississippi State. It pays about half my tuition, and I'm very thankful for it. I'll be receiving financial aid as well, so I should be fine. I've felt very blessed here lately.
