23. We lived together in the house for a year and she was one of my favorite roommates.

25. I loved college so much.
26. I still don't know to this day how my parents were able to afford me in college. I spent a lot of money.
27. On September 23, 1999 I met my husband.
28. I ran in a 5 K the morning I meet him and almost didn't go to the game.
29. All thanks to Carrie I was introduced to Greg.
30. After the game, we went to a friends house. Greg bought some Corona instead of the usual cheap beer to impress me. It worked.
31. He kissed me that very day I meet him. That worked too.
32. We were both dating other people at the time and decided to ditch them and hang out that night.
33. The rest is history.
34. I thought I caught a good one because he had a real job, a nice car, and wore suits to work. Luckily, I did. He is wonderful!
35. The first time Greg meet Laura and Dustin (a police officer) he got pulled over and his car towed. Not a good first impression.
36. However, we quickly became great friends are still are to this day.
37. At one point in college I lived in a house with five girls and four female dogs. That was a lot of estrogen!

62. I didn't know how hard motherhood would really be. I don't think anyone can prepare you for that.

That's great Nes! I can't believe this is your 5th year teaching. I remember your first year, that's crazy. You are an AWESOME teacher and I'm so glad you decided to teach.
I love my mommy so much more too! It is amazing how your love changes when you have a little one.
Loved it! I was laughing hysterically. I LOVED rooming with you, roommate. You also stole my pillow from time to time. Now that I think about it, I think we switched pillows for some reason...
You're one of the best and most loyal friends I have. Love you, girl
So fun Nesa! I loved it! I totally remember that "estrogen" filled house that ya'll lived in, that was crazy! I am so blessed to have you in my life girl, love you!
All that in a nut shell! Very impressive!!
I can't believe I made the top 100!!! I feel so lucky! I can't believe you remember all of that stuff too... funny how you spent every weekend at the soccer fields growing up, here I am almost 30 (which happens to be the new 20) and I'm still doing the same thing!
Check my blog for a little suprise!
