Spring Break

So it's officially spring break and here are some things that have been going on since Friday.

  • My mom entered to win a free furnace on Fridays on 101.9 The end and SHE WON! It's worth $5000 with installation! woot! Her whole excuse that day was "I don't care, I won a free furnace today!"
  • Friday was also my parent's wedding anniversary. Mom, Dad, Phil and I went to Chili's and to a movie. We watched Unknown with Liam Neeson. It was actually a pretty good movie. It was like a mix between taken and inception....kinda. but it was really fun to be with the family.
  • Sunday I went to the CES fireside at the institute and it was very good. I also helped out my mom with her primary class. I love her class to death!
  • I am taking off the wallpaper in my room! Goodbye pink with white polka dots! I have been taking down the wallpaper all day today and I'm almost done with one wall! Woot! I'm so ready for it to be gone! I'm hoping that I can get most of the wallpaper off before I head back down to Snow. I will post pictures of it when I get the paint done. :)
That's all for now. Will tell you more later this week!

Smells

Through all the frozen winter
My nose has grown most lonely
For lovely, lovely colored smells
That come in springtime only.

The purple smell of lilacs,
The yellow smell that blows
Across the air of meadows
Where bright forsythia grows.

The tall pink smell of peach trees,
The low white smell of clover
And everywhere the great green smell
Of grass the whole world over

Dear New Library

Thank you for being there when I really needed to focus on my school work today. Did I get all my homework done today? No. But I do enjoy the Badger Bistro and their variety on food when I've been in a room on the top floor doing nothing but studying for 5 or 6 hours fully studying. Will I be coming back to you again soon? Oh yeah.

Love, brain-fried college student.

President's Day Weekend

Here are some things that have been going on lately:
*School has been pretty good. Classes have been keeping me busy. One class I have a test a week. In another class I have to read 125 children's books. Yeah it's a lot but at the same time it's really not that bad. Other than that classes are pretty relaxed. It's weird that I will be graduating from Snow in 2 months! Crazy but exciting!
*My calling is going good. It's going to be strange that in 2 months I won't be Relief Society President anymore. I love my calling though. I have been truly blessed by accepting this calling and by serving the calling with all that I have. I love my girls so much.
*Life is going great! I am happy with life. I really am excited for what will happen in the future. I have no idea what is going to happen in the future but I am ready for it. My plans right now is to graduate from Snow then just work. I want to save up my money for some things that are not set in stone yet.
*Dating is going good. I've been on quite a few dates lately. Valentine's Dance, Date with Daniel and I got some more to come. In 2 weeks I'll be going on a date with this awesome guy named Mitch. I'm pretty excited about dating. I don't really have to worry about if the guy likes me or not. I'm more to the point where I'll just have fun and be myself. I guess many girls think otherwise but as for me it's all for just living in the moment and living it very stress free I guess. good? good.

Well that's whats going on right now in my life. Just trying to keep you updated and I know there are some people that check my blog on a daily basis so they will be happy to know that I've updated. :)

Carbon Monoxide!? What?

So last night, I was just chillin with my roommates when all of a sudden I see on facebook (yeah get over the fact that I like facebook) that my friend said "More firefighters at the science building" I immediately went over to my window and opened the blinds to see 3 fire trucks, 2 ambulances, and half a dozen cops or undercover cops. The science building is literally across the street from my apartment. Talk about WOW! This all started at around 8:30ish. So we would look out the window every now and then to see if anything else has happened. We found out that they taped off the building with "Police Do Not Cross" tape along with cutting off the street. We later found out that there was carbon monoxide in the building which lead to 2 girls passing out and dozens of people getting checked out from EMT's. Kinda scary considering the fact that Carbon Monoxide is an odorless and tasteless gas that can really hurt someone if there's a lot of it. Thankfully everyone is okay and the science building is now clear. That was my night last night. Ephraim doesn't get much action so it gets pretty exciting when things like this happen. haha The End.
