George! My Future Husband!

Thank goodness it's Friday! This has been such a long week. This is probably because I have been DYING for tonight to come. Tonight, I get to go see George Straight, my future husband, kick off his final tour! I have been to see George before, but I am still just as excited as ever. I am a huge fan! Huge. This is probably going to week the best week off the year for me. Words just can't explain how happy I am to have this opputunity.

So this week I finally got my dorm at Texas Tech. I was all excited because my room is exactly where I wanted, and it was kind of a freak thing that I snagged this room, but I probably should have known there would be a catch. I communicated with my rommate, and she happens to be a bisexual atheist. No offense to anyone out there, but those characteristics just aren't really anything I can relate to! But she is a very nice girl so I'm sure everything will be fine. I just wasn't quite expecting that.

Well, I hope everyone has a wonderful week! I'll be back on Friday!

Well today is a little more interesting than usual. Not much, but a little. Today, every senior (that remembered) brought their pictures to school for our senior video! We have spent two entire class periods looking at each other's pictures over and over again. We have all laughed multiple times, and many forgotten stories have resurfaced. I think we are all starting to realize that we are all going to be graduating in about four short months. Then, before we know it, it'll be time for us kids to pack up and roll on out of this little town. It's very very crazy for me to think about, in fact I don't really believe it yet. But here we are, putting our senior slide show together. Other than that and our school lockdown drill, things have been pretty dull around here lately. Hopefully next week I will have something more eventful to share.
Have a great week everyone!
 

Hello Everyone!

Hello everyone, and welcome to my first blogging experience! There is really no telling what you might find in this blog. Maybe my latest craft, or baking accomplishment... or maybe just a story that I think you might find interesting.
Today I thought I would give a little information about my background. My name is Maggie Key I am a senior at Gruver High School. I actually started my last semester of high school yesterday! After lots of contemplation I have decided to attend Texas Tech University, however I am totally clueless about what I am going to study. As you will soon find out, I enjoy a wide variety of things, all the way from arts and crafts to hunting. In the Spring, I will be busy busy busy with school work and golf. Golf is my favorite sport and I cannot wait for the season to start up and for the weather to warm up! I have two younger brothers and many cousins who are more like sisters.

I. Love. The holidays!
For Christmas we had no choice but to stick around this thrilling town while my dad managed the cotton gin that did not finish up until the day after Christmas. Of course! On the 28th we took off to our cabin in Ruidoso, New Mexico. We decided to ski one day but all of the snow was man-made. There was a small amount of excitment when my mother and I were playing Ruzzle (a word game) on out iphones and my 15 year old brother casually mentioned all of the smoke in the living room. Mom and I looked up to realize that someone had left a plastic spoon on the stove burner. I'm pretty sure my dad came running into the house faster than he can ski. My dad's best friend just bought the cabin next door to us. There were 5 college boys over there who were more than pumped when they realized that our other neighbors, Andy Roddick and Brooklyn Decker, were actually home for once! They were in full force stocking mode and considered many possible options for meeting Brooklyn. Unfortunately trick or treating and baking "Welcome to the neighborhood" cookies were both shot down by one of the mothers.

I hope everyone had a break as wonderful as mine, and I will be back on Friday!
