My bf and I will be leaving for our Disney Trip in a month and two weeks. Both of us are very excited and have started to make a to do list/bucket list. Here are a couple things on our list.
1. See the fireworks, one of my bf’s picks and a Disney Must.
2. Hit the best rides and the attractions on my list are: The dumbo ride, teacups, the tower of terror and the Haunted Mansion!
3. Get the best grub: For Dave it’s a Turkey leg and for myself, I really want a Mickey Mouse shaped icecream and I am super excited for eating through Epcot.
4. Get presents. With two nephews, a niece, cousins and two grandmothers obsessed with Disney I am starting to think of things that would be perfect for each of them. Gotta share the Disney magic!
I am so excited for this trip! With a lot of family issues and sad times a little trip to Disney seems like a perfect paradise.

Happy June everyone! Thankfully the weather is finally being nice and beach worthy.
6 days until my 22nd birthday and I have no idea what to do…any ideas?

Happy Memorial Day Friends!!
No barbeques or parades for me this year. It’s finally a beautiful day so hopefully my 7-hour shift will go by fast at the bathing suit place. I do appreciate the hours so I can’t complain. My parents left me this weekend to go to the beach and I’ve never had more nightmares of getting kidnapped then I did this weekend. You’d think I was 12! Well I hope everyone has a good memorial day!

It’s been less then a week since graduation and I’m back at Cameo. I’m applying for jobs and I feel really lucky to have this position to go back to in the meantime. I didn’t make the cut for grad school due to my late application but I will be reapplying for January admission. And with my stellar gpa this semester I’m super confident that I will get in this time.
I know grad school is going to be really expensive and time consuming but working in Higher Ed. is all I want to do. And these are the steps I have to take!

Took me 3 1/2 years but I can finally call myself a good crafter. My littles send off paddle! I was so proud of it I almost kept it for myself.. Sisters Always. ΔΦΕ
Graduation is 4 days away!! I am officially done finals and I can’t believe I am about to be in this tent and graduating Saturday. This time went by so fast and it’s literally insane. I’m excited and extremely nervous for my life after college but there’s no slowing it down now. I’ve had a great time at York College, and all my memories are due to getting involved and being apart of the YCP community.
Get involved. Have fun. Study for finals and enjoy life
bye York College, it’s been a wild ride!

Surprises are actually the best!!! This weekend my boyfriend caved in and told me this big surprise he was planning for my graduation//birthday. AND IT’S A TRIP TO DISNEY WORLD!! Honestly I am so excited and I have been such a little kid since I found out. Not only that, but we’re also going to spend a day at Universal going to the Harry Potter World! I’m a disney and HP obsesser so there was no other perfect gift he could have picked. He told me it was between Vegas and Disney, and since I’m actually 12 not almost 22 Disney couldn’t be more perfect!!! This will be our first real big trip together and I cannot wait its going to be amazing and I feel so lucky to have him in my life.
And since I’ve always wanted to say this, here it goes….
“Alaina, what are you doing after gradutation?!’
“I’M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” -tehehehe

Tonight is my sorority senior send off and ritual where I officially become a Delta Phi Epsilon alumnae. It’s crazy how fast 3 1/2 years went. I’ve had so many amazing memories with these girls that I can’t believe it’s my turn to say my goodbyes. I’m a bit of a mush too so there will be lots of tears, once you get me started its hard to control (no judgement). haha. It’s one of those bitter-sweet memories, I remember going to my first send off and never believing that was going to be me.
Tonight I also give my little her padde, a traditional sorority craft, it just is more of a parting gift from big to little. It’s pretty awesome I’m not going to lie. I’ll post a picture later, since I don’t want her to see it before the actual night!
I’m going to miss everyone so much but all the amazing memories I’ve had make me realize I’m not just a sister for 4 years but for life and I’ll be seeing these girls again.

Happy Greek Week!!!
Tonight kicks off Greek Week 2013 and I’m so excited! It’s super bitter sweet since it’s my last one, but I can’t wait to support my sisters! Greek Week is broken up into sports, academic competitions and penny wars. Yes, it can get a little competitive but it’s a great week where all Greek are together and showing both YCP spirit and Greek appreciation.
I’m not athletic or musically inclined but I will be at most events and proud to be rocking my jersey for this WHOLE week

ps. don’t forget you’re not allowed to wash your Jersey ;)
