New Decade Approaching

I'm 2 weeks away from a new decade. A lot happens in 10 years and I'm very very excited to see what these next 10 years have in store. :) Maybe I'll even still have this blog in 10 years...

Moved

I moved!! Don't worry...just to the loft. But it's so nice a spacious and bright!! Perks of having an extra room in the apartment. Anywho! I love change like this. I rearranged my room all the time when I was a kid. I don't know why haha it's just fun! This is what I do besides studying :) Happy Wednesday!!

Ahhhhhh!

So maybe I needed a little more time to adjust to the new semester. It's been a little hectic this past week and a half, and I'm pretty sure it's not going to slow down anytime soon.

My roommates and I started a fitness/spiritual challenge. We've completed 1 week and we have 7 more to go. We get points for no soda, no dessert, exercise (5x a week), not eating after 8, and reading our scriptures. We get MORE points for completing a weekly challenge; last week was keeping a food journal. This week is getting 7 hours of sleep. We also get points for going to FHE that Monday. Anywho, it's been fun and frustrating all at the same time. Fun because I'm competitive. Frustrating because people know we are doing it so they bring us brownies and eat in front of us after 8pm. So not cool!

Classes are picking up and midterms are approaching. There are not enough hours in the day!! I'm going to bed late and waking up early and being as efficient as possible and I still feel like I'm drowning sometimes.

I'm a co-chair for the Family Home Evening Council in my ward (aka I'm grandma). That has taken up a lot of my time trying to call parents for 7 groups and organizing apartments for each group. Hopefully, the parents have got it under control and I'll now just be in charge of meetings on Sunday to get feed back.

Social life has to fit in somewhere or else I will literally go insane. Dating life is in progress...maybe more on that later :) My roommates really do keep me sane. Sometimes we have our differences, but doesn't everyone?

Must get back to work. Happy Tuesday! Hope it's not this long until I get a chance to write again!

Billy Currington

I'm marrying Billy Currington...he just doesn't know it yet. :)

He's oober cute, has nice pearly whites, a rockin bod, and is a country singer, plus, those curly locks...just wanna run my fingers through it! Anywho, that's my epiphany of the day. Happy Sabbath!

Last Month As A Teenager

Today marks the start of my last month as a 19-year-old. Crazy! Now, all I want for my birthday is this:

Athletic tape! :) For my lab I'm required to learn close to 30 different taping techniques. In order to practice I need athletic tape! 

Classes are awesome! I think they will be really interesting and perfectly challenging. What am I taking:

-Athletic Training (plus Lab)

-Physiology (plus Lab)

-New Testament Gospels

-New Testament Acts-Revelations

-Intro to Health Professions

-Advanced Tennis (starts second block of the semester)

Although I have a 7am class this semester I really do like my schedule. It gets me up in the morning and almost forces me to go to the gym. However, if I need a nap...I can fit one in :) 

Happy Thursday!

Second Semester

7am and I'm off! I feel a good semester ahead :)

New Year

Here I am. Sitting at my desk back out at school. About to start a new semester along with this new year. Recently, my mom sent me this website that listed 30 things to stop doing to yourself.
