Dear Mom and Dad, 



I don't know why, but my mind refuses to take finals as seriously as I probably should.  It's as if Dead Day hits and the world becomes a beautiful treasure map with swirly twirly gumdrops! (Elf reference)  You probably recognize this transformation through my sudden increase in spending and our sudden decrease in communication...  
What you might have considered to be my most stressful time at college has actually been the opposite! While most students were locking themselves up in the library and shedding tears of blood, sweat and stress... your daughter was making some pretty great memories ;)

For example... 

1.
^^Delicious meals with my beautiful roommates!

2.
^^Enjoying a Christmas Concert feat. Matt Wertz, Ben Rector, Dave Barnes etc.!

3.
^^Attending painting parties where a Goodwill sad puppy can turn into Swag Murphy! 

4. 
^^ Turning a box from one of Mom's 12 days of Christmas packages into our robot boyfriend!


5.
  

^^ Taking extremely awesome yet awkward Christmas card pictures with all the hidden treats that make up our cozy Ckando!


6.
^^ Attending a theatre Christmas party where Santa's costume reflected a college students budget and was therefore 10x more creepy!


7.
^^ Going on adventures with incredible friends to see Christmas lights at the Opryland Hotel in a car they decorated that felt like Santa's sleigh! 

8.
^^ Making everyone watch Shrek 2 over and over until they finally realized it was starting from the beginning again!

9.
^^ Getting to unwrap new leaders and enjoy music from Matt Wertz & Brandon Heath at the Younglife Christmas party!


10.
^^ Actually getting some work done, but never locked up in a library... because who wants that when you can snuggle up next to robot boyfriend?




Now, don't you feel like these memories and this smiling face are far more valuable than any A+?? 










............. I sure hope you do




Sincerely,

Cassidy
