Bored...

I have been really busy!! I have a project or test in every class this week or next week. It has been pretty hectic. Also my car sunroof is stuck open, so I have to take that somewhere when I'm not in class. Luckily, I get to go home in 17 days!!!!!!!!! :)

Don't have any pictures to post really... This weekend I did have a fun break and got to go to the Freshman Follies performance! Each hall puts on an act and they have little speciality acts that people try out for in between. It was very entertaining and I'm glad I went. Wish I could have taken pictures so you would understand the randomness of it.

The other day I was finally able to sit down and write letters to the Sikoras and Finneys. Hope I can send them out tomorrow. Luckily, we can buy envelopes and stamps at the mail center on campus.

I have been having a good time at school despite the busy weeks. I volunteer at a Friendship House on Thursdays (4th-5th grade after school porgram) from 3-5pm, and that always brings me smiles.
I also go to the Gardner Hall Worship every Sunday night I don't have homework. I love it because it is a great start to my week. I also have a group of friends that I eat lunch with everyday and hangout with when I'm not doing homework.

I'm just bored sitting here. Not wanting to do homework haha. I guess I will get back to work. Hope I can post more interesting stuff soon!!! Just know that I am doing well!
Love you all!! :)

Welcome Week and First (Few) Weeks of School!!

So I finally got a chance to sit and update my blog! This is my 3rd week of school now and I am loving it!  It can be stressful trying to make a routine since it is so different from high school. Practically all my homework is reading. That is all I do after class, read, and read, and Zzz.

Welcome Week was fun! We were put in our mentor groups, the people we will have in our Cornerstone class with all semester. We had chapel, mentor group time, and Group Olympics and other activities to partake in. Here are some pictures of the fun

look at the people's positions- intense game!

These first few weeks have been good. I miss my church family and kids a lot, but I try to not think about. Instead I just talk about them a lot and share cute things they do and pictures... lots of pictures! My bulletin board will be covered after I get them all printed! I have made some good friends. I love my RA, she is pretty awesome! It has been great getting to know people.

 

Here are some picture of my first few weeks.

For some reason those pictures wouldn't get any smaller.

 

 This past weekend my hall (Gardner 3rd East) participated in a mud fun run. I twisted my ankle, but walked the rest and finished with my team. Melissa and Nick (our mascot since he was the only guy) are seriously the best friends I could have right now. They stayed with me the rest of the run and Nick gave me a piggyback ride.Nick and Melissa are both super funny and sweet!! It has been great to getting to know them better. I have known Nick since middle school and Melissa since elementary school.

 

 

I can't wait to go home next weekend! I can't wait for the rest of the semester! Now as I close I had to add this picture of the sky, it was so beautiful.

 

 

Miss everyone! My blogs will be a lot shorter from now on.

 Had to get everyone caught up :)

 

 

 

 

Dorm Assignment!!

I got my dorm assignment last night! I'm in Gardner which is the best freshman dorm! The rooms and closets are just a little bigger than the other dorms. My roommate and I are going shopping for our dorm room after I get back from mission trip. I am getting more excited to go to college now. Finding out my dorm was a good distraction from thinking about everyone moving. I had a great week with the Finney's and Sikora's! I will have to post some of my favorite pictures later. I'm typing on my iPad and I don't have many pictures on it. College is getting closer! Which is exciting but also nerve wracking. Well I got to go pack for mission trip now. Can't wait to post about it!!
