adjustments

This has been harder than I thought... And it is really hard to keep good spirits when everyone and everything around you is negative. I miss my mom. My dad. My brother. My dog. Tiff. Her family. Everyone. And it's so hard to keep that positive attitude when your best friend, who doesn't cry, ever, cries because she doesn't feel right about where she is right now. I just want to take a break and cry, but I don't have time. I have so much homework and I don't know if I have time for a job! I have been trying but no one has responded and this just isn't good. I thought I couldn't manage 8 classes. That was a piece of cake! Now I have 5 classes, and I want to break down. I need some good sort of stress release that allows me to study at the same time...aaaaahhhhhhh. That's all. Thank you for letting me vent!!

college

So today in my Latin class, my professor said something pretty incredible to me. We were talking about majors and why I was in Latin class and I told him that I was a math ed major. He loved that I was taking Latin and doing math. One thing he described to me was that he hated math because he is a history man. He was never taught math with a history sense. The Hebrew's did math by writing it all out word for word. They didn't use symbols. Symbols were used much later in history. The symbols were actually added by some Philosopher that spoke Latin and it enabled the people to go further in math! The entire time we were having this conversation, I kept thinking to myself that I could possibly change the face of math curriculum. Or my students would think that I am crazy. Either way, that would be so cool! My professor also said that if he would have known that stuff earlier in life, he probably would have loved math so much more. It's crazy how life goes. He became a Latin professor when he could have done something with math. Holy molar, God's plan is amazing and real! Anyway, I found that super interesting and I thought that I should share it with you. Have a great day!

screw it

So, I have given up on this whole write every day thing, its just dumb, but I am going to try to post more. As of yesterday I moved up to college and it has been a blast! Today, there was this thing called taste of Logan and local restaurants give out free samples. People have said that they may be way small portions, but there are so many that by the time you are done, you are full. Well, it poured rain today...The only thing we knew about this place was that it was taking place on Main Street. It was on Main Street, but it was on one end of main street. We freaking parked a mile away from the event. I kid you not. So we walked forever in the pouring rain and just lived it up. It was so fun! Then we had a quarter of a cookie and a small drink and hiked it back to our car, which was by Chick-Fil-A so we stopped there instead. We then continued to our dorm and watched a super intense movie and now we are here:) I just love this stuff so much!  Sure it was hard leaving home, but this is so worth it! I'll keep you updated on the fun stuff!!

Day 21

Today has felt like this..

I didn't do squat because my parents are out of town and have no contact with us, so I slept in, and did nothing. Literally. After this ridiculous week, I just wanted to relax. It was so wonderful! I also got ready for absolutely no reason, and it was wonderful! I just let today be me, and all was amazing. It has been a long time since I have had a day like this, and it was amazing! Oh boy, that is all I can say...Anyway, I hope your day was just as wonderful!

Days 16-20

Oh my word, this week has been so crazy! For the past four days I have been working like crazy! I have been babysitting for my guard instructor from 7:30-4 pm and then at my other job from 5-11 pm. All I have really done this week is work, sleep, and eat. Which is kinda sad, but at the same time, my paycheck is going to be beautiful! Ahhhh, I'm so excited to get paid from my night job! I will be paid at least $400! aaahhh! And, an extra bonus, Saturday is my last day at my night job! Woohoo!! I was offered my job back when it comes summer time, but, I really don't want it. I would rather get a different job. That pays higher. Because minimum is NOT enough to live off of. It's a great starting thing, but if I am going to support myself, then I have to get a higher paying job! I can't wait for Saturday!! Yeah!! Oh my heavens, can you tell I'm a little bit excited? Also, don't expect anything next week either. I will be in Delta with the band! Holy molar my life is so much better! Wa-freaking- hoo!! Anyway, that is my life as of current. Love you all!

Day 14 and 15

Wow, has it been a crazy 2 days. Lets start with yesterday.

Yesterday my aunt, cousin, and cousins girlfriend came into town to spend the weekend with us and it was so nice yesterday. We went down to Bajio's down in Provo and it was just beautiful. The Riverwoods down in Provo and just amazing. Here, enjoy this beautiful picture that I took!

Do you see what I mean! Oh man, I just love Provo! We just had so much fun last night, just sitting under those lights and just talking!

Today we went and got shakes at JCW's and after I went to a friends house to watch the fireworks for the Highland Fling. Those were some pretty fireworks. And then this amazing friend gave me and two other friends gifts for moving out to college. She is just to freaking thoughtful! Love her to death! Well, that has been my fun past two days. I hope you have had just as much fun as I have!
