A New Front Porch

Around the time we remodeled my bathroom, we also had the front steps redone. The steps that were there before were made of brick and matched the color of the house. When our contractor noticed that some of the bricks were coming loose, my parents decided it was a good time for a new front porch. They had been thinking about redoing the front to match the back patio which is all done in slate. It only took our contractor a few days to finish the steps and it made a huge change to the look of the house.

They started with tearing out the old bricks, breaking them up, and then using them to fill in the bottom step. Then they added concrete and built the other two steps. It's a remarkable improvement!

The set of Mississippi Grind

This week was Spring Break so there was a lot of free time. On Tuesday, my friend and I went to Mobile, Alabama to scope out the set of Mississippi Grind, Ryan Reynold's new movie.

My future boat <3

Having spent most of my waking hours studying for three midterms, I didn't have much free time this week but I did get out of the library long enough to tour the Port of Alabama with the Marketing & Logistics Association (MLA). 

Driving a Band on Warped Tour

It's about time I got around to writing this. I guess I was so embarrassed by what happened that I didn't want to talk about it, let alone write it down. But it's been so long I'm over it so here is the story of my time (about two weeks) as Set It Off's driver for Warped Tour 2013.
