Fall Break- Boise!!

Grandma and I at Table Rock

This weekend I had the opportunity to go to Boise and visit my family. It was interesting ride there.First off, my grandma is one of those people that easily freaks out with people driving. Let's just say I am not that experience with driving. The whole week I was nervous that I would give my grandma a heart attack for something. I was also nervous because I had never driven such a long distance. But it all went will and we got there safe. I LOVED spending time with the people I love. I enjoyed every minute of it. It was sad to say goodbye to them. I got emotional, but I was glad that I had the opportunity to go. On the way back, I was so nervous because I had to drive in the rain for the first time ever. Thankfully, though, I made it back safe. Overall, Fall Break was AMAZING!!

I LOVE COLLEGE!!

First month of college has passed and can I just say I LOVE COLLEGE!!! I am having the time of my life. I am enjoying meeting new people and making new friends. They say some of your best friends are those from college. I am starting to believe it. These past couple of days have been crazy. Studying for exams is definitely a difficult task. Everything seems to distract me. But I gotta say, it is all worth it in the end. I am learning not only school stuff, but also life lessons. I have learned that I am a pro at losing things, but I will get better at it.

This week is homecoming week. Yesterday, I helped LSU paint the sidewalk. Can I just say are drawing turned AMAZING!! :) I also went to the Chalk Dance which was SO MUCH FUN aside from getting chalk in my eye. Either way, I enjoyed every minute of it. I love my friends and the times we have together. Bring on the rest of the week!!

College Life!!- New Journey

SO... Yesterday I finally moved in to Logan to start school. So far I am still adjusting but it is crazy to finally be here. It's what I have been dreaming of for so long and it is finally here!!! I do miss my family, but I know I am here to get a good education and make them proud. So ready for this new journey in my life and I hope it comes with many blessings. GO UTAH STATE AGGIES!!!

Family

So as you all know, yesterday was Father's Day. There are two people that I consider my dad. 1. Obviously my amazing dad. 2. David ( my uncle). Both of these people are far away from me. My dad lives in boise and my uncle is now in heaven. While I bought my dad his gift, it got  me thinking that gifts are just items. My dad and David mean so much more to me. They have taught me many things and continue to make me a better person everyday. I think that we are given people from our Heavenly Father to make us better people, teach us whats right and wrong. Sometimes we don't value the people in our life. We think they will never leave and when they do, there is so much we wish we would have told them. Each person in our lives means something to us. I am thankful for all the amazing people in my life and value and everyone of them.

Time is Flying!!!

Well I decided to get a blog (finally!). I have been thinking a lot lately about my future. I have graduated high school and I will attend Utah State in the fall. It is a little weird for me. I am excited for this new journey and where it takes me. Since summer has started, I have been working and I kind of enjoy it. I love the people I work with. It just seems that time is flying by so fast!! Hmm... I wonder where this journey takes me next.
