today as i was walking to class, i was thinking about this month. i've always loved september, but this year's september has been extra fabulous.
the weather. i think because i walk to class every day, i am much more aware of the weather than i ever was at home. september usually brings that middle ground between summer and fall. today, it was extra beautiful. the sunshine was deafening with its promises of cooler weather coming soon. i can't wait.
football season.
september brings the beginning of football season, which is the most exciting time of the year in the south. and let me say, it's so much more fun as a college student, getting to sit in the student section with my beautiful friends and sorority sisters!
turning eighteen.
obviously, i've always loved september because it's my birthday month. everyone likes getting presents! i got some really fun things in the mail, then i spent my birthday evening in birmingham at the fabulous samford university, getting to see my best friend there and then going to the drew holcomb concert! it was amazingggg. such a good way to spend the day. i didn't get to go home for my birthday weekend because of football, but instead i got to meet my family in cahaba village one sunday afternoon for a celebration! it was super great (and yummy).
baseball!!!
so, my most exciting part of september has definitely been following the rays and their spectacular comeback to make the playoffs. wednesday night was probably the craziest night i have ever seen in sports. a lot of bizarre things went down, but i think this picture says it all.
evan longoria is such a beast. he hit a walkoff home run in the 12th inning, completing the rays' comeback from being down 7-0 in the 8th. five minutes before that, the red sox lost in the ninth inning when carl crawford couldn't make a catch in left field. (there is an incredible amount of irony there...) but all that means the rays are going to october!!!
it has been a beautiful, exciting, crazy month, filled with swaps and homework and lots of espn watching. i'm ending september at the beach with fifty of my beautiful alpha chi sisters. i can't think of a better way to slide into fall.
