It's a Good Life

I am here in St. Louis Missouri, home of the Arch that leads to the west, toasted raviolis, Ted Drew's, provel cheese, Budweiser and Nelly. It is my second time in Missouri, but completely different from the first. I was recently at Mizzou (The University of Missouri, Columbia) which is gorgeous school with a defined college culture. I enjoyed my time there sooo much! It was fun to stay in a big ZTA house, and hear Tri Delta practicing walk outs at 2AM (hahaa...) Now I am at a campus much like my own! I am the University of St. Louis, Missouri also known as UMSL. This campus is spread out, a few minutes from the city, but is a commuter campus. I love the feel of the campus though, because it feels a lot like what I am used to.
Being from a commuter campus, I feel like I can help the girls in so many ways! I am visiting the Theta Kappa chapter, and I can not say enough sweet things about this dedicated chapter. The women here have been so welcoming, and I have enjoyed my stay here. We are getting a lot accomplished before their busy week of recruitment that starts on Sunday. They have taken me to see a lot of the St. Louis traditions while I'm here, and I'm loving it!
I have to admit, it is kind of funny not being at a class, while on a campus. There are all types of college students around scurrying to their next class, or trying to find the right text book in the book store. It makes me miss being in college for about 5 seconds, then I snap out of it. Instead of homework, I do have my own set of responsibilities so it's kind of the same. I basically love my job, and I am so lucky to have it.
The weather is SOOO nice here! Gotta throw that one out there! It is not as humid or hot as Atlanta. There has been a nice breeze the past two days. I'm loving it! Oh, and I am starting to feel a lot better. I was kind of sick last week, but I am getting over it.
Love and miss you all lots!!

XOXO
