My week was very bland so I'm sharing everything that I did last weekend!

1 // On Sunday GPS (Go Passionately Serve -- a Christian college group that I'm a part of) went to Masonboro Island for a cook out! We had a big fire on the beach and huddled around cooking hotdogs on sticks and making smores. We had the entire island to ourselves which was awesome!

2 // This picture was also taken during the cook out at Masonboro Island. I can't get enough of God's marvelous sunsets! We also sang some worship songs around the fire and spent some time praying for one another. It was an all around fun and great night.

3 // I went home to Apex, NC for Friday/Saturday to see my family and best friends! We all are scattered throughout North Carolina since we all go to different colleges but it was awesome reuniting with my three closest friends at home for two days. We went to my church's pumpkin patch and spent Saturday night carving them up!

4 // Friday night was the best! We all went to the state fair in Raleigh. I haven't been in years so I forgot how crazy expensive everything is but it was still fun! I ate fried Oreo's for the first time, went on the stupidest haunted house ride, ate too much cotton candy, people watched, and rode the Ferris Wheel while fireworks were going off.

1 // My friends and I chalked on campus to promote Overflow, a weekly college ministry at our church. Overflow has helped me grow so much in my walk with God and is always one of the highlights of my week. It has definitely been one of the absolute best things to happen to me at college!

2 // Last week I woke up before the world did and went to see the sunrise on the beach. It was such a beautiful moment that a photograph can't even capture, and I really hope to do it again sometime.

3 // Last weekend was my fall break and I had a wonderful time up in Virginia with my mom and best friend Sarah at Busch Gardens! During the day we rode in the front for all the roller coasters, ate crepes, and thankfully only got rained on for a little bit. But once night time came around, so did Howl-O-Scream. We had SO much fun running through the haunted houses, being chased by crazy guys with chainsaws, and looking at all the elaborate decorations throughout the amusement park. I definitely recommend going and checking it out!

4 // This afternoon I went to a huge pumpkin patch in Wilmington and picked out 2 cute little pumpkins to paint, as well as a bigger one to carve with my small group on Monday. I am not a fan at all of pumpkin flavored food/drinks; however, I love actual pumpkins. They're a necessity for this time of year, and painting them is the best!

1 // My 21st birthday was on September 29 and three of my sweet friends had a little surprise party for me complete with birthday hats, cookies and ice cream, balloons, and crazy cat presents. It was a wonderful, thoughtful gift. I appreciate my amazing friends here at college so much!

2 // My beautiful friend Liz got married on Saturday!! Her wedding was absolutely gorgeous at a pretty outdoor venue in Greensboro. The ceremony was so loving and God-centered; I hope to one day have a ceremony and relationship like hers. The bridesmaids did a funny, sweet dance to T-Swift's "Shake It Off," we ate a yummy meal of rice and chicken, and sent the happy couple off with bubbles and glow sticks.

3 // I explored a new area in Wilmington and now have a new favorite park to eno and study at! I've also been taking my outfit photo posts here.

4 // Last Thursday some friends and I went to a club and had so much fun dancing late into the night. Besides the creepy guys there, I had a good time and it was also awesome not getting an X on my hand for the first time ever! Yay for being 21.

1 // My friend Anna and I decided to try a homemade face mask that we saw on Pinterest. So we bought a massive papaya from Trader Joe's (have you ever seen how big those fruits are?!) and cut it open. We took out all the seeds and then put it in a blender, adding some honey as well. We left it on our faces for 20 minutes, cracking up and taking pictures the whole time, convincing ourselves that we looked like housewives with baby throw up on our cheeks. 

2 // Thursday evening I went downtown and saw a musical - Peter Pan - one of my favorites! The theatre was gorgeous and the play itself was really well done. There were some adorable little five year olds playing the parts of the Lost Boys, the singing was awesome, and the scenery and costumes were very professional-looking.

3 // I went home from college this weekend to celebrate my 21st birthday with family! We went to the Cheesecake Factory and this awkward photo was taken right after a bunch of waiters were done singing to me. I got a huge slice of reeses peanut butter chocolate cake cheesecake -- yuuum.

4 // Saturday night my two best friends and I went to a free concert featuring a local band that we like, The Love Language. It was a lot of fun and it was wonderful seeing them for a short amount of time!

1 // The education building is by far my favorite building on campus! It is so beautiful and reminds me of the train station in Hogwarts every time I step inside. I'm so thankful to have classes in there.

2 // Decided to change up my study routine and go somewhere new! My friend Anna and I went to this nice grassy area across from the Wilmington Riverwalk and "studied" for a few hours.. (mostly just talked). Trying to enjoy as many of these beautiful hot days as I can before the weather gets cold.

3 // Went thrift shopping for the afternoon with my friend Katelyn and I don't think I've ever been so successful in one day! Usually the thrift stores in my area are either hit-or-miss but for some reason on Saturday I was hitting the jackpot. For only about $30 I was able to score some boots, 2 skirts, a necklace, sweater, dress, 3 shirts, and mason jar cup. I'll make a post significantly about my thrift stores findings later this week.

4 // Friday was National Talk like a Pirate Day -- yeah apparently that's a thing. So Krispy Kreme joined in on the event and offered a dozen free donuts to anyone who came in dressing and talking like a pirate. I will literally do anything for free food so I whipped together a pretty ridiculous outfit (not really shown in the photo, but my clothes made me look more like a pilgrim). Anyways, got 12 free donuts out of it so that was awesome!
