kickin' it hokie style

As the countdown to Orientation gets shorter and shorter, I have started to make the necessary preparations to be an ALL-STAR OL. The first thing on that list of to-do's was to order a sweet pair of Hokie shoes.

In 2008, Nike sent 30 pairs of limited edition Hokie Shox for every Orientation Leader to wear.

At my Freshman Orientation all of the OLs had Hokie Air Maxes. Unfortunately, Nike stopped making these shoes about a year and a half ago, so I was on my own when it came to finding the perfect school-spirited shoe.

Upon spending hours on NikeID.com, I finally found a pair of women's shoes that had maroon as a color option. Who knew that maroon was not a popular color to put on shoes? I ordered them a few days later, after making adjustments and perfecting them for about 3 days (perfectionist problems).

They finally came in the mail today, and I could not be more happy with the turnout!

...15 DAYS UNTIL I AM BACK IN BLACKSBURG.
