Sweet Summer Time

Wow this block is going so fast. Classes are well going... my golf and book of mormon classes are going really good but my astronomy class is well not going so good. Other then that of course I'm staying busy. I went to a concert in Utah. I went to Soda Springs and went four wheeling and to the hot springs. I go bridge jumping at least once a week. I went to Egin lake. I of course go on dates but it's me so nothing special. I go to a bbq almost every sunday where we play soccer, frisbee, football, and most importantly eat. Well of course there are still the little random things, like going to the movies, moving matresses to our porch and sleeping outside, spending all day on those same matresses taking naps, eating cereal, and watching movies, shopping a few times, lots of bon fires and just lots of playing with my roommates! They are so fun and we are not at all excited for the semester to end and we all have to go our seperate ways, we are hoping to live together again when we come back in winter. But that's far away, we're not really thinking too much about that. Besides that I like to relax and try to find time to eat and sleep, I'm getting better at making time for those but there is just so much to do and so little time. I miss everyone so much and wish I could see ya'll soon. As for my future plans, I know I only have 3 more weeks before this semester ends, but I'm still not sure. I have a lot more options then I had thought and well none of them are completely promising and so I'm applying for jobs and hoping something works out and that as it gets closer that I will be able to make my decision. That's the worst part of being a grown up. My first choice is still living in Utah with my friend but we're still looking at apartments and if it ends up being too pricy I might have to do something else. I'm just hoping that everything will fall into place, but this is life and that's not how it works, lol. Well I should probably getting back to classes so that I can think I'm getting smarter.

Around the World and Back Again.




Before I do a recap I have almost finalized my fall plans and I'm hoping to live in the orem/provo area in utah with some friends (some of you may know Meaghan Bradley) well anyways if anyone has any ideas of good paying jobs or jobs that have to do with architecture please, please let me know. It would be greatly appricitated, the more options I have the better!


Holy cow it's been an amazing month (well more then a month by now)! I went on a study abroad tour with BYU-I to Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. I went and got to see the family in DC. And now I'm back in Idaho finishing up the summer semester.


Mexico... ruins, skyscrapers, hostels, latin dancing, agua azul, family stay, shopping, mud slide


Guatemala... temple, finca, cave, lake, zip lining, ruins


Belize... snorkeling, beach, swam with nurse sharks, touched southern sting rays


Mexico... cenote, beach, ruins, Indian Jones movie, Playa del Carmen


Once I flew back I got to stay with Chad for a few days before I flew out to DC. While in DC Shantel and I went to Roosevelt Island and saw the Iwo Jima statue. Then that weekend the family came! We went to an amazing aquirium. There was lots of just having fun with each other, I had missed everyone so much and can't wait to do it again.


So I know there aren't really details but school is keeping me busy with homework so I don't have much time to add lots. Sorry!


Now I'm back in Rexburg, taking block classes is a lot harder and crazier so I'm trying hard to keep on track but it's college and I've already met a lot of sweet friends this past week that I'm going to miss so much. So far I've already gone to the Rexburg temple, shot a shot gun, played lots of sports, went on a cave hike, tried dying my hair blonde but I didn't like it so I went back to dark brown (I'm hooked), and lots of playing! I'm loving it.
