And the beat goes on...


Week one of Idaho is done!
Funny/ sad thing is, that it wasn't even a full week!
But it was fun! =]
Classes are a bit overwhelming....but that is how first days tend to be. Like, the teahers present the entire semester in one day and its just like, "Wow. Ok, so what is due tomorrow?" So I think I will have a lot of homework this semester- but it will be good. I am looking forward to it. =]
My first weekend in Idaho was good to! I am so happy that I have my friend Camille here with me- who is one of my best Friends! It makes life a lot easier. =] Plus we have a class together! Which is happiness too!
Friday Camille, my roommate Andrea and I and a couple other people went to a concert by a band called We Shot the Moon. Then on Saturday I got some homework done, went on a picnic to this really cool park near by that has this little water park and a merry-go round! Plus I got to see my good canadian friend Josie, or as I like to call her Anne Girl. Then we walked around main street- there was this battle of the bands thing going on, and basically we just got free stuff. I was happy I got a free mail opener. That was the joy of my day. =] haha.
Saturday night I went on a phone date with my cowboy! That was fun. =] We talk on the phone a lot, but it was funner to be on an actual date! Then I went to the sand dunes in Rexburg and had a bonfire- but bonfires just arnt the same when there is no beach around.
Today was my first sunday in my new ward- we start church at 8:15 am! So early! I am done before everyone at home has even gone to church! But its nice to have a lot of the day free. It was a really relaxing day full of writing letters, talking to friends from school and just enjoying the day. =]
In a little bit I will be headed out to do some stadium singing- and then off to bed so I can wake up bright and early for work tomorrow!

The cat came back.....Or in this case the girl.

I am back to Idaho!
Wow. I have been back for 48 + now and it still feels odd to be in Rexburg.
My summer was great.
I didnt update here much- ehh....thats fine. I spent a great summer in Santa Maria with all my friends. Went to the beach. Ate In-N-Out more times this past summer than my enitre life combined and now I like it. Lived the life with slurpees. Got myself a Cowboy named Joe. Learned spanish. Didn't even leave the state of California from the time I got home till I left. It was just really grea.t =]
I got back here this past Tuesday afternoon, and have been slowly unpacking ever since and I am finally done and that is a great feeling! I will have some pictures up shortly. I am just trying to get adjusted to new roommates, my new apartment and the limited space, starting school again wtih 16 credits,and work from 4-7 am...once again. Once I find some free time I will take out my camera and get some pictures of the beautiful campus before the snow hits and my surroundings! =]
