1. Getting my pref into my sorority
People may think it is weird that my preference is
a top moment of 2014 for me and not my bid. The way I got my pref is what makes
it a top moment for me. I had heard my sorority at a girl down the hall’s door
and than I didn’t hear them come to me. My first thought was that I wasn’t
getting one and I wouldn’t be getting into the sorority. Than they knocked on
my door and I was shocked and excited.
2. My birthday surprise from my roommate
My roommate from last year was the best. She
surprised me with a little birthday party the last night we were at school
together. I had no idea that she was doing it even though she had all our
friends in on it. I made a post about it here.
3. When everyone was at my house after my grandma passed
Although it was a sad time, it will always be a
moment I never forget. My house was packed with all of my family. Before they
came we ran around and cleaned like mad people. There was so much love and
support in our teeny, little row home. Something I will never forget from that
time is my uncle picking me up from school and my cousin taking me back. To me
it was just an act of love. Family is everything to me.
4. Hiding from my RA with my roommate
This happened not too long before we left for
winter break. My roommate of this year and I hid from our RA by turning off all
the lights and music. Why were we hiding? Because we had Christmas lights, a
tree, and a table from the lounge in our room and we’re not allowed to have
them. Our RA was walking around knocking on doors. This whole ordeal lasted
about 2 hours during which we took tons of snapchat videos and even said our
new catch phrase, I spy some chicken.

5. Finishing anatomy 2 and getting an B
I spent all summer going to class. I’m not being
dramatic when I saw whole summer either it was 12 weeks plus an extra week at
the beginning before I switched schools. For 3 out of the 6 weeks of Anatomy 2
I was failing. The class was so much harder than Anatomy 1 and I really didn’t
think I was going to get a C. I ended up with a B and was so happy I cried.
6. Finding out my grades for fall semester
I worked all semester to get good grades and ended
up with grades that were better than I thought I was going to receive. The
pride I have for completing that semester is amazing. It made 2014 amazing.

7. When my grandma told the nurses I was going to be a nurse one day
My grandma told nurses multiple times that I was
going to be a nurse one day and she always did it with pride. Every single time
I feel like quitting I think of those moments. I think of how much faith she
had in me and I keep going.
8. Getting my Big Spir
Many people might think that getting my Big for my
sorority was a bigger moment for me than my Spir but it wasn’t. Not that
getting my Big wasn’t a huge part of my year its just that deep down I knew it
was her. I wasn’t extremely surprised. Now when I got my Spir I was shocked and
didn’t even have a guess as to whom it was.

9. Going out to the outlet mall with my mom
At the beginning of the summer I was going to a
community college that was an hour and a half away. It was right by the outlet
malls that I had never been to. When I was switching over to a community
college closer to me I had to go to my regular college and a bunch of different
other places. I ended up getting to the community college really early so my
mom and I had dinner and walked around the mall.

10. Ordering my scrubs
Although it was pouring rain and I had to keep going
to the ATM to get money out, the experience made me one step closer to becoming
a nurse. A friend and I laughed as we tried on scrubs in the big handicap stall
making fun of the way they fit.
11. Family reunion
We had less than a month to plan for the reunion
and at times it was stressful and pure chaos but I wouldn’t change that day for
anything. I saw most of my mom’s side of the family. We swam, played baseball,
and had a moon bounce. Everyone had an amazing time and the next weekend when
we saw them again we set a date for next year.

12. Playing football with my cousin
I’m not close with some of my cousins because of
age differences but I had a really nice time throwing a football with one of my
younger cousins, Cullen. I feel like we bonded a little. Him and me were the
oldest there and just kept throwing a football back and forth over the pool. To
my whole family’s surprise I can actually throw a football.
13. Our underwear line
My friends Miranda, Erika, Jill, and I all decide
while sitting in our lounge that we were going to make a underwear line and
sell it. The long week and all the work were finally getting to us and I have
to say we definitely lost our minds but made a memory in the moment.

14. Watching The Hunger Games for the first time
Now it wasn’t the fact that I was watching The Hunger Games for the first
time it was how I watched it. My friends Jill, Erika, Joann, Jeannie, and I all
decided to watch the movie in my room. I asked a million questions and talked
the whole time. It was dysfunction at its finest but than again we are always
dysfunctional. It was a perfect example of how we are as a group.
xoxo,
Lauren
