MVP

Haha...so as we were leaving Berks I joked with my dad that right now my choices are between Millersville and PennState Berks...so it's M versus P...aka...MVP!!!

That made me giggle. :)

Visited two colleges today!!!!

Went to Westchester in the morning and as soon as we got there we had to drive around to try and find where we're supposed to park. And it was funny...cause as I was cruisin' through town/college (WCU is like part of the town, it's not its own campus) I just got the feeling that I didn't like it. Just the atmosphere...I realized today that I like campuses that are more compact...like this is the town over here, and this is the college over here. Separate. So I was already meh about it and then the tour was just ok. There were parts that I was like, "Oh yeah, this is nice" but it was only twice that I thought that...so by the end I was like, "Ok, not gonna apply here. That was easy!"

Then daddy and I had lunch at this AMAZING Mexican restaurant...SO GOOD. Mmm!!!

Next was PennState Berks!!! It was awesome, cause as we were driving up to it we were all worried it'd be like WCU and we wouldn't be able to find exactly where it was/where we were supposed to go but we turned a corner and BAM! Entire campus right in front of you! It was GORGEOUS. And of course this is the best time of year...with all the trees budding and everything, but still, loved the layout and the scenery. Then we get inside and our tour guides were HYSTERICAL. It was a good size group and there were five students giving the tour and they all interacted and like joked around the entire time and you could tell they were really having fun with it. And what I really loved was that as we were walking around campus, a bunch of the students just walking by would stop and talk to the guides...like a LOT. So obviously people are well-connected and there are a lot of opportunity to get to know people, which is great for me. :)

THE DORMS WERE AMAZING. Like...the actual rooms weren't anything special. Two beds...two dressers...two desks...a closet...like they were pretty good-sized but nothing fantastic. What I LOVE is that four people share one bathroom. So instead of having a community bathroom down the hall, it's kinda of like a Jack N' Jill bathroom connecting two rooms. SWEET!

So as of right now, I absolutely love Millersville and PennState Berks. Now I just have to visit Kutztown!!! Which I can hopefully do next week...and then I think I'll be good. I don't think I'm interested in much more...like I might visit Bloomsburg and Shippensburg but they're not at the top of my lists.

I'M GETTING EXCITED FOR COLLEGE!!!!!

ANTM!!!

So during this break a whole bunch of episodes from America's Next Top Model have been on and Sanya and I have watched SOOOO many of them...and this picture of Raina is still my favorite.

And it was so awesome that I had to share it... ;D

So I was talking to my mommy just now...about my day and how it went (I was with my dad for Easter) and then out of the blue she's like, "I got you a non-traditional Easter present..." and I just looked at her and she's like, "Emphasis on the non-traditional...let me go get it!!!" So she hurried off to find it and she came back and gave me...THE NOTEBOOK!!!!!!

I LOVE THAT MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And now I understand why she said my present was non-traditional...hahahaha!!!!!
