The Introduction

I have finally received word on who my roommates will be and which room I will be living in.
I think I'm more nervous than when I found out for CUW.

We're all friends on Facebook now, but have yet to talk to each other. I don't know how well they know each other or anything, so I decided to break the ice...

"Hello ladies, I guess I don't really know anything about you, but I'm quite excited to get to know you all throughout the year! I thought I'd introduce myself before the school starts however, just so I can ease into the year a little easier.. I'm Elisebeth (duh), I live in Green Bay WI--Go Packers! I actually spent most of my life in Minnesota, and am super excited to finish out my college years back in the fabulous state. My dad is a pastor, which is why my family has moved around. I am an Early Childhood Education major with LCT as my minor. Last year I was a freshman at Concordia University Wisconsin. I loved it there and made some great friends by the end of the year. I decided to transfer to CSP for a few reasons. Mainly because I got bored at CUW, because it's like half an hour from Milwaukee and I don't own a car so I was always stuck on campus. This also caused difficulties with me getting a job. So I'm super excited to be in the city! Another reason I decided on CSP is because my boyfriend goes to a music school in St. Paul, so I'm excited to no longer have to deal with a long distance relationship. So yeah, that's pretty much it right off the bat. I don't know how well you ladies know each other already, but I would certainly love to hear about your lives"

4th of July

This was the first 4th of July that Trevor and I spent together!
We spent a lot of time together before going downtown. We ended up ordering Pizza Ranch and picking up our delicious combo (half Chicken Bacon Ranch [extra chicken/extra ranch]+ pepperoni and half Pepperoni and Green Olives along with an order of mashed potatoes and gravy and a 2-liter bottle of Barq's root beer!)
It was a terrific lunch, of course!
We then headed down to the City Deck to look at a few of the local bands that were playing. Trevor knew a lot of the guys in the bands so we shot a lot of pictures of many of the bands. While it was quite fun, my knee disagreed due to the large amount of walking we did over the course of the evening.

Those are the shots I got of the bands. I think they turned out pretty well considering it was my first time shooting bands. You can see them on my Flickr page too: Elisebeth's Flickr!

Also, I love this picture of me and Trevor I took downtown on Snapchat. :)

Our first 4th of July <3

Faithfully

I love that my boyfriend is such a music nerd. Well sometimes it actually bothers me a bit to be completely honest. But for the most part, I love that.

Get back from Walmart and hear a song on the radio? He sits down to figure out how to play it on the keyboard and sings to me. Then transitions into playing Faithfully by Journey. My favorite song. 

That's one of my favorite things that he does for me, plays that song when we're at his house.
