Hello everyone! I am tired of waiting until I can put pictures up to start my blog, so I am just going to get it started right now. I will post pictures when I get home. I am at work right now but there isn't too much to do. We are in the middle of moving buildings and my boss is out of town, so everything is a little scattered. I finished finals last week and am so grateful for how well they went. I'm looking forward to seeing my grades this semester. As scared as I am for next semester, I am kind of excited for the challenge! I will be in super hard classes, i.e. Anatomy, Statistics, Public Speaking, etc. It will be neat to explore the classes in my new major, Exercise and Wellness.
Christmas is in two days!!! I've still got a couple things to finish up in terms of presents, but I am super excited. I am going to Vegas tomorrow and can't wait to see my family there. I have enjoyed getting ready for Christmas this year because I home-made most of my presents. Anything from cross-stitching to painting dishes at Color Me Mine , I had a blast using my talents and being creative. I even started a couple presents as early as June!
I watched a couple movies last night and got caught up on some scrapbooking. I have two more pages to do to get caught up through last Christmas! Then I will only be a year behind :). After that some guys in my ward came over and my roommate and I played games with them. Correction...my roommate played games with them...I was basically asleep on the couch! Lame, I know, but I was super tired. It was still fun though; we had some good laughs.
One of the Elders that taught my amazing roommate that got baptized is going home today. It's sad that he won't be here anymore, but we are going to see him next week. He is going home for Christmas and then coming back for a tour of his mission before school starts up at BYU-Idaho. It's going to be weird to call him by his first name now. The missionaries have played a big role in mine and my roommates' lives this semester...life-changing.
I had a fun Christmas weekend up at my dad's last weekend. My little brother is SO adorable. I will post a video of his cuteness later. I love him! I got some great useful things too, like a whole new pots and pans set! I'm so grateful for all of the great things received.
Well, it's time I find some work to do. I am going home at noon and then hopefully hanging out with one of my best friends who is here from Idaho. I'm excited to see her. Life is great and I'm looking forward to seeing what new experiences I will have in my life that compose the Music Inside of Me.
