Hey, so, it's been a while. I hope you, my loyal few readers, are doing well. I have been rather ill for the last few days, but I am on the downhill side of my sickness; I haven't had a fever today! Awesome blossom. Anyway, a lot has happened since I last blogged, so I'll catch you up to speed then give some words of wisdom before peacing out for a bit.

I'm sure you were waiting anxiously to hear the results of Phi Lamb / Lambda Chi's Spring Sing performance... We did great, worked our tails off, wore a RIDICULOUS (-Amanda-) amount of makeup and hairspray (some in the eyes, sorry!) and...got 7th. Which clearly isn't last, and for most of us really not knowing what we were getting ourselves into, I don't think that's too bad. Phi Lambs - if we get the chance to do it next year, more girls better try out! It was an awesome experience and it was great getting to know the Lambda Chi's!

Also last week was AMPLIFY!! It was absolutely incredible. Shane and Shane even sang Christmas music! The BYX had their Island Party that day as well, and it was great to see God moving on campus. Pray for Phi Lamb and BYX, that Jesus will shine through us!

I had a lunch interview at Riverwind Casino last week! I will be interning once again at Riverwind beginning in May, and I am very excited about it! Although I'm not sure exactly what I will be doing yet, however, I am certain it will be awesome! I already like the people and the environment from previous years' experience, and I am glad to have the opportunity to go back.

Most of you know that I applied for an week-long internship at CMA Fest. I got an email yesterday saying I didn't get it, unfortunately. I was really bummed at first - anyone who knows me knows how much I LOVE music. Getting to report at CMA Fest and work with the best in the music industry would have been a dream come true. I know that God has a reason for keeping me... Romans 8:28 comes to mind. I don't like that I'm not going to Nashville, but I know that God has a plan and purpose in mind. So, thanks mom for reminding me that there is a reason for this. :)

The Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon is Saturday, keep up with it on Twitter by searching #ocmm or by following @OKCMarathon. I'm not running the 5K this year like I hoped to, but my family will be walking it & I hope to be volunteering! NewsOK wrote a story about why my family walks - we do so in memory of my cousin, Blake. The story is incredible, check it out here. 

Thanks for keeping up with my life! Have a super weekend!

Music for the week: Clear the Stage, Ross King

How 'bout them Cowboys?!
I must say, they played an awesome game today! While I enjoy every aspect of OSU basketball, I must say, the part that captured my heart today was probably not televised: James Anderson singing the alma matter with two little girls. It was the cutest thing I have seen in a while. Since I'm no sportswriter, I won't get into all the game details. If you'd like a rundown, I recommend reading John Helsley's article on the NewsOK website. If you'd like my very opinion about the game or my thoughts on fans, contact me. I'm so proud to be a Cowboy fan!
On Friday, thanks to my aunt, my big & I went to the Eli Young Band show at Riverwind Casino. I have been an EYB fan for quite a while, and getting to see & meet them last night was quite a treat! It was also great to catch up with some friends from my time at Riverwind! Caylee & I had a great time, even if it did mean getting back home at 1 a.m. 
Between being sick and having tests, I didn't do too much else this week. My neighbors have finally decided either to be quiet or take their noise elsewhere (thankfully!!), which means bedtime for me! Pray I get over this sickness...and that I haven't passed it to too many people :) Have a great week!
