My hall has been such an amazing blessing this year. We have all gotten real close and I love them all so much! We have so much fun together: we love having dance parties, having hall meetings talking about a date one of the girls had that evening, acting completely goofy, having dinners together, and just getting to know one another better.

So tonight after our hall had gone to dinner we were called into our RA’s room. We all piled in to the bathroom where we found our RA fixing her hair getting ready to go on a date with her boyfriend. It wasn’t long though before we saw the shimmering diamond peek through her dark brown locks. We all went crazy. Her boyfriend had asked her to marry him, she was engaged! The hall went hysterical and finally settled down to hear the story. She continued to get ready as she told us how he had taken her out to this park and as they sat on a blanket under an umbrella he began to read he a poem. Then before she even realized what was happening he was on his knee asking her to marry him. The hall was so excited for her and helped her finish getting ready and walked her to the elevator wishing her to have a wonderful night.

It makes me sad thinking about leaving these girls for the summer. They have become so special to me. I am excited though that God has a funny way of working things out and I will once again be living in room 522 on Chi Alpha next year. And the best part about it is we get a whole bunch of new freshmen on the hall too next year! I’m looking forward to another fun year with the girls!
