L'ecole

So I have just completed my first week of college! All five of my room-mates are completely AWESOME and we have a lot of fun. I am taking a pretty light load this summer term. I am taking two classes, New Testament and Intro. to tap dance. Both are awesome classes! I had my doubts at first about the tap class because it is somewhat difficult, but I am finally catching on and seeing my improvement so now it is very fun for me. :) I haven't really had a chance to meet a lot of people yet and still don't really hang out with people other than my room-mates. But I hope to branch out. There are a ton of people on campus because of efy and all of the other programs that are going on, so it is extra noisy. Good News: I just got a job at the MTC serving food to the missionaries. I am way super excited especially because I could really use the money. School is fun but I really miss all of my family and friends...but i'm not too homesick lol. My room-mate is awesome, her name is Becky and she is from Minnesota. She likes to cook and so in this week we have already made cookies and a four-berry pie. I feel very fortunate that out of the six room-mates in this dorm, we all get along very well. As a result of awesome room-mates, I have also developed a bad habit of staying up until midnight every night. lol.

2 months!!

So I have officially two months of school left..yay. ^_^ However I need to start packing up my room and the things that I will not need for college. Due to the fact that I am a major pack-rat, I am have some difficulties with this. So.... I was wondering if anyone had ideas on what to take and what not to take. It is apparent that I have wayyy too much stuff and could not possibly fit it all in my dorm. But I don't know where to begin packing. So if you have any advice it would be much appreciated. :)

It's official, I have been transformed into a cougar

I am pleased to announce that I have been accepted to BYU-P along with my brother. Thank goodness the stress of waiting for an acceptance letter is over. Now newfound stresses have arose such as, money, time, cleaning and packing, and whether or not to cut my hair or continue to let it grow out. lol. Anywho, the main point of this post is to hopefully get some advice for college as I prepare to embark on this new journey. Also if anyone has some handy dandy recipies that they wouldn't mind sharing, since I am going to try to make the majority of my food to avoid fattening cafeteria food. lol. I was telling Celeste the other day that it was a good thing I got into BYU otherwise I wouldn't be able to continue whereing my cougar sweatshirt. ^_^

Background

So.....I'm pretty new with this whole blog-type-thingy. I kinda figured you create a blog on two occasions, 1) When you get married and 2) when you have a baby. Since I apply to neither of those, my reason for creating this blog is so that I can become obsessed and addicted to another computer program. (j/k) But honestly I think the true reason is because my parents have one and umm I needed to get in with the crowd. (So is that intro. confusing or what). If that intro. does not give you a good idea of the type of person I am I'll explain... I am mostly a bubbly, spontaneous person yet shy. I like people and hanging out with big crowds...yet I'm shy. I have a ginormous family and I like it that way. I will be leaving for my next big adventure in a few months....college. My goal in life is not world peace but to simply influence those who I'm around.
