Celebrating Spring

The weather has been so lovely here, lately! There have been a few randomly cold or rainy days, but for the most part, the sun has been shining and the quad has been bustling with activity. 

Yesterday, we had the International Festival and the Spring Carnival. On Thursday, I think half of the students were playing games in the quad because it felt so nice outside. Everyone was laying on blankets, or throwing frisbees, reading a book, or, unfortunately, studying for exams.

Exams being this coming Wednesday! But these last few weeks of school have been lots of fun and very eventful. I am flabbergasted that my fresh man year of college is coming to an end! It is really  hard to wrap my mind around that, so we'll get to that later.

Last Thursday, a bunch of us took a trip to the conveniently located Freedom Park--which is within walking distance from campus. It was actually my first visit there (much to my friends' shock), but I will definitely be back! It's a beautiful park, with lucious grass and a gorgeous pond. We were also finding canker worms all of the place and kept getting caught in their silk  webs. One of the joys of Charlotte in spring time!

I have been taking so many pictures lately, so I'm going to share a few with you. Hope you enjoy, and hope you are enjoying your last few moments of school. Don't take any of them for granted, because they pass by so quickly!

Happy spring, everyone.

Fondly,
Leslie Virginia
