Florida Southern we thee love...

Last Friday I got to visit with some close friends from college. They were all in town for Christmas to stay with family who lives in or near this area. So we got together here, where we all became so close, and spent hours walking around campus at Florida Southern, noticing all the changes and improvements made since we last were on campus. This campus has changed a lot since we lived there. New buildings, old buildings restored, lots of new vegetation, beautification projects everywhere like gardens and fountains. It was a chilly day, which I thought was perfect for being outside.

Then we realized that it was ten years ago that we had completed the first semester of our freshman year living in the dorm that we are standing in front of in the photo above. This is about the time we all became friends. Jen and I were roommates and already friends from High School, but we hadn't known Chancie and Lindsay until this time about ten years ago.

As we walked around we laughed at stories and memories from certain places on campus. We hummed the Alma mater, attempted to fly a kite in front of the library, and pointed out all the little things that have changed. All of us are proud of Florida Southern and we loved our time here. I am extremely thankful I had the opportunity to study here and have such a good experience, and I am also deeply thankful for these girls that I have as friends.
