Hey, Collegiettes™!  I’m Emily, and I’ll be blogging this semester for Her Campus-Eckerd.  I’ll be sharing my thoughts or any crazy things worth writing about that happen to me, and I hope you enjoy my entries!  Unfortunately, I probably won’t be able to meet all of you Her Campus readers, but I can at least tell you a little about myself.  I’m a senior here at Eckerd, originally from Ann Arbor, Michigan (GO BLUE!!).  I major in Human Development, and hope to someday be a therapist.  My favorite things to do to pass the time include taking long drives, watching will Ferrell movies (Blades of Glory is totally my fav), and reading magazines, especially Cosmopolitan!  I’m a sucker for Mexican food, and a die-hard Detroit Red Wings fan.  People say my best trait is my compassion for others.  Making others feel happy around me is important to me.  I’m also a huge animal lover.  I have five cats back home, Moe, Beau, Boo, Eek, and Squeek.  I would die for them, and yes, I do skype with them, and no, I’m not afraid to admit it!  Hmm, what else?  Oh, I’m obsessed with leopard print, the color pink, and glitter.  That’s enough random facts about me, you will all get to know me better as I update this blog.  But that’s my attempt for getting started I guess.  Talk to you soon, Her Campus Eckerd!

Some girls have all the fun; Devon Elizabeth Williams happens to be one of them. A carb loving, liberal hailing from Lakeville, Massachusetts, Devon is a senior at Eckerd College in Saint Petersburg, Florida pursuing a  major in Political Science with a double minor in Journalism and International Relations. After spending January 2011 in an intensive Winter Term program at the United Nations in New York, Devon realized that taking over the world will be more difficult than anticipated, but nothing that a vivacious red head in stilettos can’t handle. In her free time Devon is a bartending beauty queen who has a soft spot for blueberry pie, Broadway and the scheming antics of Blair Waldorf. When she’s not paddle boarding at the waterfront or laying out on Eckerd’s private South Beach you can find Devon singing in the alto section of the concert choir. At the end of the day Devon is thankful for Newport, RI, her family, Sadie the black lab, Paul Mitchell, her girlfriends, Cheetah, and rhinestones.
