School here we come....

<

Well, here we are! A whole new school year. It's my first day and I can hardly believe that the summer is OVER. I am ready for school to start though I think. I am ready to have some more structure and have things to always be keeping me busy. I enjoy being busy oddly enough! We'll see if I feel the same way in a month or two....but for now I am glad to be starting again. Coming down has been so much fun seeing everyone again, and I remember why I love going to school here! Dixie is like a big family. It's so much fun. We had a carnival last night which I will post pictures when I get them back, but it was amazing. The student government pulled off an awesome night with a great turn-out and it was so fun to see everyone again. But I guess a re-cap of my goings-on this summer consisted of .... not a whole lot!




I had knee surgery....actually let me rephrase that....I had knee surgery TWICE hahaha. Once on both knees. It was awesome.


My aunt and uncle flew me out to Arkansas to visit my adorable cousins! So fun.


I got to be a counselor for a youth camp at BYU called EFY....best thing ever!



Went and saw the MAN, Jack Johnson with my little, but not so little brother! :) So good!


Seeing old friends in Orem that will always be my closest.


Hung out with my family A LOT in the good ol' wheel chair


Met Jordin Sparks


And now here I am back in St. George with my old roomies in my NEW apartment that i love at Red Sands. It's gonna be a good year I can feel it. More later!

finals = grumpy faces.

K, well, on list of things that I do not like in life I would have to put finals right up on there on the one of the top of my list. Can't say I wake up every morning excited to sit for 2 hours and take a bazillion (or so it seems) question test and regurgitate every single peice of information we learned in this semester....whew. I promise I am not bitter....finals are a necessity for a class, I am just definitely ready to be DONE. But I can say it....just one more week! ONE MORE! And then I am done. Wahoo! And summer can begin. Well, I wish I had something more exciting to talk about besides a test, but there just isn't! K well, more later!

Red Sands!

Oh hey everyone!

This weekend was awesome with everyone coming to Dixie that was trying out to be an ambassador! We had a great time up at Pinevalley at the cabin. If you do ever get a chance to go up there, it is way fun...but a word to the wise....GET A BED. There are tons of rooms it seems like...until everyone gets up there and all the beds get taken...then you are stuck on the hard hallow floor, freezing with your tiny blanket you brought, and trying to get as much sleep that you know is not going to be much. So fun, but expect to be tired the next few days, and expect a neck and back ache if you don't get a bed! For all who have been there, this is pretty funny because you know EXACTLY what I am talking about. It is going to be tough decisions for the advisors next year because we had so man people who would be such great recruitors. Can't wait to see who get's on! Well, not much going on in my life right now....actually there is TONS going on but it is probably not too interesting. Just studying, going to class, sleeping lots, working TONS, and trying to keep up! Things are definitely busy. But tonight is the Colbie Callait concert at Tuacahn and I am SOOO excited! I'll let you know how it goes. To all who read...more later!!

A million miles a minute

I have a confession to make....I am all tuckered out. I have just going nonstop for too long. With finals coming up, trying to hold down a job, ambassadors, trying to remain at least a tiny bit social, and all the other stuff I don't wanna bore you with....yeah, I'm just tired. Hahaha Good thing there is a little thing called "The Office" to keep me sane. I absolutely positively LOVE that show and could put me in a good mood no matter how stressed I am.

My point: Give yourself at least one half hour a day of sanity by indulging in the office.

Take a look:

The Deliciousness of Spring Break!

Well spring break was so great!! I had so much fun! I was able to go to Vegas to the Rascal Flatts concert....yes....we were very close!!



We were able to go all over Vegas to the usual spots like the Coke factory, M & M factory, all over to the big hotels like Mandalay Bay....MGM...etc. It was seriously so fun and way close to St. George!





Then! That thursday I was able to go to Newport, Hunington, and Laguna Beach with my friends across the hall from me. It seriously was SO fun!! We just did nothing but sit on the beach for four days. And, being the poor college students that we are, we tried to go VERY cheap. Let me just say we got REALLY sick of PB&J, fruit snacks, and granola bars. But we did keep it cheap that is for surely! I did buy a wonderful pair of shoes though :).






Now I am back in school...and well it is hard to get back I will be completely honest. The bed grabbers sure got me on monday when I was trying to get back. Well, I hope everyone else enjoyed or will enjoy their spring break!! More later.
