We are sad today, and we will be sad for quite a while. We are not moving on, we are embracing our mourning … We are strong enough to stand tall tearlessly, we are brave enough to bend to cry, and we are sad enough to know that we must laugh again.

Any Hokies out there in Communications, Sales or Event Management looking for a paid, full-time (read: 40 hrs/week) internship?

Hokie outfit alert.

It’s time.

Here we are again. It’s been 5 years since the shootings at Virginia Tech, and the emotions are just as raw. But, as always, today is a great reminder to “appreciate life a little more, take in every moment around you, count your blessings, tell the people around you that you love them, slow down, remember what’s truly important in life”.

Live for 32.

Running for 32 

Never Forget.

Or, we’re just really big Virginia Tech fans*…

My parents are on vacation in Hilton Head Island, visiting my grandparents who live there. I asked them to pick me up a Salty Dog Cafe t-shirt when they went, to add to my collection. I told my mom I wanted orange.

I sent Eric the link, without telling him what color I chose, to see if he wanted one and he said he’d take the Crimson.

Now, I know “crimson” isn’t the same as Chicago Maroon, but it’s close enough.

*Clearly we’re big fans of Virginia Tech—we got married there.
