Classes start in the morning. I am a TAD nervous, but mostly for the fact that I think I might die of hunger tomorrow. I have class for just over 3 hours tomorrow in one room in the basement of a building. I don't get out of there until 1pm. I think I might just pack a sandwich and eat it between Art History I and Art History 2.
I hope I am not the ONLY crazy person who signed up for both history classes at once.
But I have 3 classes in that room, totaling 9 hours in a basement. Awesome huh? You could say I have a new home.
Work is.......work. Not thrilled, but to make me feel better, I remind myself that it keeps me here on my offtrack. And I like to eat. And have an apartment. Oh curse these luxuries I enjoy....
Friend-wise things are AWESOME!!!
My roommates are pretty much the BEST THING EVER! I love them all to bits and I think we are going to have a blast this semester.
Haley Nicholas has come over every day since she got here. She can talk MORE than me. I kinda really love it! She's a doll and she gets along with my roommates perfectly. I'd say she is a keeper!
Everyone is settled in now and today I realized I have no "fun" classes. My "fun" and "hard" classes will PROBABLY be art history......yup.......art major.....woohoo!
Also scripture study is AMAZING and has really made a difference in my days. The CES fireside was REALLY good tonight.
My ward seems nice. LOTS of cute boys!!! *Praying that the cute boys from Harris are in my FHE!!!*
Saw Jason Hiatt today and screamed his name loudly. =] Yup I think he appreciated it....haha
And I love my roommate Nikki. She is a doll and the sweetest person ever! Love you deary <3
And I got to skype Hannah and Lizzy! That was lots of fun =]
I think that is about it. If you wanna know more, ask. If you comment on this post saying what you want to hear more about, I'll do a little longer post on that stuff later.
I got another letter from Michael Gmeiner; he is doing well. And I am expecting a letter from Rachel! I'm excited!
That's all for now.
TTFN! Ta ta for now!
Frozen banana
slices are delicious!

On a side note to all of that rambling and wishing I had been born about 40 years earlier, today has been a great day!
I got up this morning with not much time to get ready, but I did nonetheless and got to church JUST in time. Part of me did not want to go this morning. I was tired and my roommates were not awake and I could have easily gone to bed and missed everything. But something told me to go and so I did.
I ended up sitting with my friend Kate for all of church. And let me tell you, today was one of the best Sunday's ever! I mean church is always wonderful, but I feel normally the first hour I get so much out of it and then the rest of the time I get a bit tired and struggle to focus. But today I have never heard such wonderful lessons. Our Sunday school and Relief Society teachers were incredible! They taught by the spirit, got people to participate and hit some key notes that I think we all needed.
The lesson in Sunday school was called "Keep the Ordinances, as I delivered Them". Crystal (our teacher) pointed out that all covenants we can think of are appendages from the atonement of Christ. And that God is not a respecter of persons, so why should we be? So often people are scared to share the gospel or even discuss religion with others. Growing up in the Biblebelt, my friends all come from different religions and I think it is the coolest. We should not be scared to share what we know, for you never know who is looking and you might just have what they need. She went on to discuss the importance of friends and how they can strengthen us. And at the end of the day, with their help as well as teaching others, we can better learn for ourselves and remember the covenants we have made with the Lord. I know everything that was said today is true and that often times we forget the promises we have made, but we can always come back. We can always find what we need.
To go along with that, Relief Society was about being an example as friends and future mothers. We must practice what we preach; therefore we must start learning and making habits of those things we want for our children or for whomever we may eventually teach. We are examples now as friends, siblings, partners, husbands, wives, parents, teachers or coworkers. We set an example and if we step back and look, what kind of an example are we setting? Would we want others to follow in our footsteps? This hit me because there is a great deal I want to approve upon within myself. And I am slowly working to become the person I want to be.
Years of lessons, great examples (my family and close friends) have taught me ways to improve and day by day I am learning. I hope you can take a look and find some way to better yourself. Others might not notice right away, but in time it will make a difference to you and those around you.
We are here in this life to be the best that we can be. I want that for myself and for you. You can and should be the best you can be. We only have the time that is given to us. Take advantage of it. I promise it will change your life.
The Lord knows what
is in our hearts, as long as
we have a prayer within.

Tis The Season To Sing To No End
Sorry I haven't posted anything in awhile, my life has been more than usually dull this week but today has made up for it all. Though I will back track to Friday night for a moment. Friday night my roommates and I played Quelf. (Yes that is a real game and from what I understand, it is much like Curses) I have never played that before though. All the same Quelf is a board game where you each pick a character and then take turns rolling a die. You go that many spaces and whatever
color you land on, you draw that color card. There are Green, Yellow, Purple, Red and Blue cards.
You are not allowed to read the green cards, someone has to read it to you, they'll tell you to do something or ask you a true/false question. Some cards are "Classified" which means no one else can read them, but otherwise someone else can read the card and often the card will tell whomever the 2nd reader is to do something as well.
The yellow ones are weird, I'm not quite sure what the point of them is, mine always said the same thing, just to sit there quietly and move on. (Oh also, if you don't do what the card says you have to go back however many spaces the card says).
The purple ones are crazy and random! You have to act out or do something. Like splash water on your face and then sing "My bonny lies over the ocean". Or you have to act something out, or people have to do something while you do you thing. Like one was where the person had to pretend to be a cowboy and people had to pretend to cry or pick their nose (but you can't tell them that they are supposed to do that, you just have had to play the game before to know, or they tell you after for next time you play).
The red ones are for everyone and will make you say things. One we had was different ways to cook eggs. You go around the circle until someone can't think of anything and then they pay the penalty (go back spaces).
The blue ones are weird. They are either community, for everyone, or for you. Examples for one person: Cacia and to sit on her hands, and talk like a preacher. Nicole had to ask her foot permission to speak if she wanted to say more than 3 words, or keep one hand on the ground when not her turn. Group Examples: If you're character was on the same spot as another character, you had to hold hands with that person. You mad to make a noise that you think your character would make whenever you move a square on the board. My favorite was if you made eye contact with someone you had to say "Trippy".
Basically that game is AWESOME! Except I am not very good at it but that is ok =]
Anywhooooooo today was good. I went to bed at 10pm last night! =D And didn't wake up until 11:30am this morning. But I needed it because the night before I didn't get to sleep until 4am because my throat was killing me. =/ I am doing my best to not get sick from Cacia and Alisa. But I felt much better this morning and now I'm just kind of congested but not too bad, just an icky cough.
All the same, my throat doesn't feel too bad and Rachel gave me medicine to take.
So Rachel, Nicole and I went to church and testimony meeting was good . Houston (one of my home teachers) bore his testimony and talked about how he doesn't like the poem "Footsteps in the sand" It talks about walking with the Lord, and Him carrying us when we struggle. But it is because of a scripture in Isaiah. Isaiah 46: 3-4. It talks about how if we let Him, the Lord will always carry us whether in hard times or not. And I thought that was rather cool of him to point out, how we must humble ourselves to let the Lord carry us.
Then on the way down to Sunday school (Church is in the Manwaring Center, where we had Catherine's reception, sacrament is upstairs and Sunday school and R.S. is in the basement near where the bookstore is at) Rachel wanted to go home but Nicole and I wanted to stay. Nicole and I walked down to the lobby, but stopped to wait to see if Rachel would come, but Nicole decided to go back up and get her and talk her into coming. I waited for them both, and while I did, a guy came up to me and introduced himself. His name is Drew and he's in my ward. He rooms with Colby (another guy in my ward that I met at the beginning of the semester). And then my roommates came, and we went down to Sunday school.
Sunday school is rough because it's Old Testament but it is good. Roll went around and it was pretty amusing. I noticed Nicole Harris reading the front of the list so when it got to me, I decided to read it as well. The first few guys (that also happened to be my home teachers and their roommies) has "single" next to their names. Farther down people put things like happily taken, married with 3 kids, divorced, widowed, living with 3 dogs and I have a crush on someone in this room. No really, people put all of those, it was quite amusing. And no I didn't put anything next to my name. Afterward a bunch of the guys went up to go look at what other people had put, crazy crazy kids.
Relief Society was good. Our president taught and I absolutely love her, she is a RM and you can tell, she is bubbly and full of life. She just brightens your day as soon as she opens her mouth and she taught on knowing Christ. She read a story about a boy that had written his paper on going to Heaven. You have probably heard this story before. he talks of being in this room with a walk FULL of files covering the wall documenting every part of his life. The more he reads of the bad things, the more he wants to destroy the room so no one can see it. Then Christ walks in and pulls some of the worst files and writes His name over the boys, red in His own blood. I had heard this story before but it hit me just as hard this time, and I cried. If you haven't read this story, go look it up, it is AMAZING. After crying my eyes out, my roommates and I went home.
Rachel walked barefoot because her shoes are rather knew and were giving her blisters, but the ground was worse. I came home and relaxed a bit. Houston and Gunnar (our home teachers) were coming for dinner so I knew it would be up to me to make something since the ones who normally cook were sick. Mother being as awe inspiring as she is, gave me the WONDERFUL recipe of Arizona Skillet Dinner, quick, easy, feeds lots and tastes AMAZING.
While starting to cut the onion I got a text from an unknown number and area code saying "Do you not have a facebook?" Being somewhat confused, I inquired whom this person was. Come to find out it was Drew (He got it from the BYU-I directory, which is a wonderful tool to stalk people with, I, myself have found all my FHE brothers from that, as well as my roommates). So I talked with him while making dinner. Sadly I kind of burned the onion whiling trying to saute them and start cooking the noodles. But it still turned out well.
Gunnar and Houston came over for dinner and I must say, I love my home teachers, they are AWESOME. The 6 of us (Keely came back while I was making dinner) had a great time, and everyone loved the dinner (thank you mother for being a genius!). It was all around one of the best dinners we have ever had, just laughing and it felt somewhat like home.
After dinner they gave their lesson. Houston asked if we remembered the scripture he had given in testimony meeting and between Rachel and I , we got it! Heck yes we pay attention in church, felt so proud! =D So he went off that and his favorite scripture, Mosiah 5: 12-13 which talks of service and having the Lord in our hearts. he gave a wonderful analogy of picturing each day like sand on a beach and each day the water comes up and washes everything away and it is up to use to write the Lord's name in the sand, in our hearts until it becomes permanent. I thought that was an amazing thought and just wonderful. Then Gunnar went on to talk of how service can be as easy as smiling and how he is part of this thing on campus called "Fight the Frown". Check out the link. Gunnar is the one in the tie-dye shirt. Overall it was a wonderful message and they left us all with giant grins on our faces. =]
Then Albert came over and chatted for a bit and then I got to talk to Rachel White on the phone. And I found out I got A's on my Portrait of Cacia and Subject Exploration projects!!! =D =D =D
Overall today has been wonderful with games, spiritual messages, a great dinner, making friends, good grades, and family =] Yup, I am happy with life =]
And I hope y'all will fight the frown, and smile wherever you go, pass it along, you don't know whose day you may make. =]
SMILE
Life is worth it =]

What are men to rocks and mountains?
Today has been quite a lovely day! My alarm technically went off on time but I didn't get up for 20 minutes, leaving me 20 minutes to get ready (or so I thought). But being my brilliant self, showered the night before and got ready with ease and grace and looked rather cute if I do say so myself. I tried calling Albert to make sure we were walking to church together, but someone forgot to turn their phone back on......and off I went on my own, up the hill to church. I power walked it in my high heeled boots and got there about the same time as the cars that were driving the same way. I was quite proud of myself.
All the same, as I was walking up, who did I see but Brent and Bill! I was quite surprised they hadn't left for Burley already but according to Brent they were too lazy and tired to drive, therefore they slept yesterday to rest up. We got to church to find that half the stake had been told 9am and the other 9:30am. And after being quite good and getting there on time and everything. But we just relaxed for a bit and chatted. I felt more than usually small sitting next to two 6'4" guys plus Brent's shoes were about twice the size of mine. Talk about overwhelming, luckily they are all easy and I am pretty sure I was sitting next to the two coolest guys there. (They are so fun!) Albert came later and I did not see him until after sacrament.
Church ended up having sacrament, then 3 Sunday schools, but based on seating I didn't have to move, but Brent and Bill left to go home before the snow got too bad. Then for Relief Society, we were in the same room. I got to sit in the same seat for 3 hours....that was fun. (This was the same room we had Catherine's wedding reception in by the way). But church was quite good and I got my Temple Recommend but I still need to get the Stake President to sign it.
This afternoon was nice, I came back and I made Albert and I wraps with chicken, lettuce, ranch dressing and salsa on top. It was YUMMY. I even got to talk to my dear sister today =] Ah how I love talking to her.
And now I am watching Pride and Prejudice. Albert watched the first half with me. The snow started this morning and has yet to stop, but it is not to stop until Wednesday and then it is going to be a high of 9 degrees. I am a tad nervous but I kind of like the snow. It makes the break seem homely and warm. I desperately wish to have the classic Christmas movies, while curled up in a blanket on the couch, drinking hot cocoa. What a wonderful thought.
Anyway, this weather is making me quite happy, at least until school starts back up next week. Plus in the evening, Idaho gives off this beautiful pinkish glow of the sun setting behind the thick snowy clouds and it is a gorgeous site.
But now I am off to go drink some milk (I have most of a gallon to drink by Wednesday, as if it is a challenge though), Man I wish I had some cinnamon bears right now. Maybe I shall eat some chocolate (teeheehee). I bought some yesterday for the first time since I've been here. =D I forgot how happy it makes you feel =D =D =D
Now to go finish a letter. I promise to write you all that are far from Rexburg at present.Oh and I think the people in this whole complex have decided that since most people are gone that they must make up for the noise, for they have been running up and down their apartment and the breezeways to no end. It has never been this loud since I've been here, what is this craziness? Oh well. I love y'all dearly.
Jack: You are not to talk of Miss Cardew like that. I don’t like it.
Algernon: Well, I don’t like your clothes. You look perfectly ridiculous in them. Why on earth don’t you go up and change? It is perfectly childish to be in deep mourning for a man who is actually staying for a whole week with you in your house as a guest. I call it grotesque.
Jack: You are certainly not staying with me for a whole week as a guest or anything else. You have got to leave… by the four-five train.
Algernon: I certainly won’t leave you so long as you are in mourning. It would be most unfriendly. If I were in mourning you would stay with me, I suppose. I should think it very unkind if you didn’t.
Jack: Well, will you go if I change my clothes?
Algernon: Yes, if you are not too long. I never saw anybody take so long to dress, and with such little result.
Jack: Well, at any rate, that is better than being always over- dressed as you are.
Algernon: If I am occasionally a little over-dressed, I make up for it by being always immensely over-educated.

Algernon: I certainly won’t leave you so long as you are in mourning. It would be most unfriendly. If I were in mourning you would stay with me, I suppose. I should think it very unkind if you didn’t.
Jack: Well, will you go if I change my clothes?
Algernon: Yes, if you are not too long. I never saw anybody take so long to dress, and with such little result.
Jack: Well, at any rate, that is better than being always over- dressed as you are.
Algernon: If I am occasionally a little over-dressed, I make up for it by being always immensely over-educated.
