After I type up this post, I will be hitting the pavement to.....run errands! haha Nothing too exciting; but it's got to be done, right?! Anyways, around noon, I will be meeting up with my roommate for this upcoming year to talk about what we will need, etc (although, she happens to be one of my best friends too, so I'm sure there will be some chit chat going on as well!).
