Nice to meet you

So, we had a crazy snow storm yesterday, crazy for Virginia anyway. A bunch of my friends and I were all snowed in and had a big sleepover. They all drank and I watched, we played a few card games and country power hour. I never actually played with the real CD, and yeah I guess I still played even though I didn't drink. Some of them passed out early and the rest of us played Turrets all night long. Kristin and I slept by the fire and still froze most of the night. We woke up, I had my coffee, then we all went to Jersey Mike's. Now I'm at home starring at this mess of a room I'm debating on tackling. It's all clothes. I just have way too many plain and simple.

I realized I never actually introduced myself. That's what it seems like everyone does on here.

I'm Whitney. I am from a somewhat small town (granted we have more than one stop light, it's not that small). I am an almost 23 year old student at VCU studying to be a teacher or so I planned. I eventually wanted my Master's in Special Education, but I have a few other tricks up my sleeve before pursuing that. I am going to receive my Undergrad degree for Early Education on May 22nd and couldn't be more excited! I have plans to travel and maybe teach some ESL classes overseas with Lauren (She's graduating too). We will see where that all takes me. I would also love to teach at the elementary level for the inbetween. What else? Well I still reside in the home where I have lived for 19 years with my parents and my younger sister. While we live in the suburbs, it is only about a 15 minute commute to the downtown campus of VCU. My sister started Fall 09 so we are there together now. I have a wonderful family and great friends. I have led a very pleasant life and always count my blessings. I know I am a lucky girl and so grateful for everything I have or have yet to experience. Music is a huge passion of mine (I have secretly always wished to be a country singer). I love to travel. Summer is my favorite season, for the simple fact of loving the beach as well as, the river (where I have grown up over the summers). I am a reality TV junkie and I am looking forward to whatever life may bring my way (I am a gypsy at heart). I have always been told I am mature for my age which is crazy because I like to let loose more than most people. I am just trying to make it in the real world while reaching any goals I come up with along the way. I am not the best writer, but it is a form of therapy for me and blogging may become a habit of mine. I am surely learning that God's plan may not always be my own plan and that being single isn't the end of the world as I once thought years ago (hence my eagerness to exit my last relationship). And I love to smile and laugh. Having fun is essential in daily life (in order to keep sane!)
