What I love about Sundays

It seems like my sundays are my busiest days out of the whole week. Yesterday we had a boys apartment come over for dinner. We made them spaghetti, french bread( which i burned, i blame it on mom) and salad. It was so fun! I got to wear my cute apron and I felt so womanly. We played fun games and halfway through my Camp side kicked in and i had to do the dishes. I mean who starts getting out dessert when the dinner dishes aren't cleaned? Then our FHE brothers came and brought us cake so the first guys left because they didn't want to intrude on "family" bonding. Our FHE brothers finally left at like 11:00 and I decided it would be a good time to start homework. All in all it was a very long, fun filled day. It is days like those that make me really love college.

I'm tired of coming up with creative titles for my posts

Last night I was just sitting in my apartment eating junk food when the movie Gone with the Wind came on. I got really excited (probably a little too excited. my roommates think I'm a freak now haha). Immediately I thought back to Newport when I watched it with all my sisters and we were laughing and talking about Scarlett O'Hara's awesome eyebrow raise. I tried to convince my roommates to watch it with me but they wouldn't. They just don't understand the classic-ness of this movie! Watching that movie made me really miss you guys ( jill, emily and clarah). I love watching oldies but goodies with you. Anyways, after watching the part where Scarlet is all upset because her waist used to be 20 in. and now its 22 I decided to put the skittles away and go for a run. I love this place! I ran right as the sun was setting and it was sooo beautiful. There is an open field right next to the temple and you can see the whole valley. I stopped there and watched the sunset over Rexburg and as I was watching the sunset Dances Wolves soundtrack came on my Ipod. I couldn't help but start to tear up as I watched the sunset and thought of my Dad's favorite movie. Well, that was my day yesterday. It was a day full of adventure

home sweet home

Dear avid reader,
college. what can be said? The first time I walked onto campus I saw a father walking with his two children. Immediately I thought “ oooh sucks for him. He must be ashamed” but then I realized I was in college and people walking around with kids is completely normal! AAAHHH! I’m still traumatized. College is a completely different environment then what I am used to. Everyone is wearing modest clothes, we start class with a prayer, and I don’t hear the f-word every five seconds. I have to say it is refreshing and a little unsettling.
My first day of classes I felt so confident that I was in the right place and I could totally handle anything. Well, let’s just say that I didn’t know where I was going and I realized I couldn’t handle everything when a forty year old man( with a mustache) came and sat next to me. Along with slightly traumatizing men hitting on me I have experienced the worst weather here in one day than I ever had in 18 years in Las Vegas. I have a night class that starts and 7:00 and ends at 10:00. I was just eating dinner when I heard what sounded like a giant blow dryer coming from outside. I looked out the window and I couldn’t see anything. It was pouring rain( and by pouring I mean a torrential downpour of rain and hail)! I looked at the clock and it was 6:30. Oh...crap. Luckily, my roommate has a car and she offered to drive me or else I would’ve decided that class just wasn’t worth a cold shower.
