SO many Posts!

So, it's kinda fun having a few minutes everyday to wait for my ride from campus. It means I can write a little post. Guess what I did today? I donated blood for the very first time ever! Something about donating has always terrified me. It wasn't TOO bad. I don't know what drove me to do it, I was walking to my locker and next thing I knew, I was signing in. Weird! It wasn't at all like I expected. The needly didn't hurt at all. I filled the bag pretty fast (5 minutes, at least I think that's fast.) BUT, I got really really pale. The guy thought for sure I was gonna pass out, and I almost did. When I was walking over to the "snack table" I suddenly lost a large portion of my hearing and got tunnel vision. It was a unique sensation for sure! Happy Thursday!

Huzzah! Exam 2 status: 95% Hooray!

Smiley Smiles, and the Clock keeps Ticking

So... that's about it. Smiley Smiles and the clock keeps ticking. I decided today that time's not gonna change. Sometimes I wish it would fly by, sometimes I wish it would STOP. Today, I decided it's all irrelevant. (hopefully this lasts.) Because whether or not the days rush by or drag on, it doesn't change the present. No more trying to rush ahead or slow down; just, you know, living. So, smiley smiles and the clock keeps ticking...but I don't hear. : )

Exam One Status - COMPLETE

HOOOOORAY! I just finished my first exam! My goal this semester is to take each exam on day one offered. So far, so good. This one was for my chemistry class. I got a B, which I am pleased with...because...I added the class the last day possible, and therefore have only been in the class less then a week. SCARY! Especially since I've had NO chemistry before this semester. So yay for a B! Today, my physics class was uber stressful. People were very very very very confused by the lecture. Ahhh! Have a spectacularly wonderful evening! Good night!

Happy Happenings!

Lovely physics! My brain hurts. So here's a couple happy happenings of late... -My new calling is SUNBEAM teacher! It's absolutely such a treat. Today was our second week in primary, so we're still learning the ropes. After Opening Exercises we took our bathroom break...where one of the girls discovered the light switch. She and secretly I were fairly amused as she sneakily turned off the lights while a couple women in their 40's were in the bathroom. The women panicked like no other as my little sunbeams just quietly giggled in the pitch black. Oh fun! We got to spend several minutes of class playing the "walking reverently in the halls game." Next week, we'll play the "leaving the bathroom lights ON game." I really just love these girls! -So I just realised I haven't blogged about New Years yet! I went to a Rockapella/Noteworthy concert with my brother and one of our amazing friends. It was way fun. If I had a camera, I'd post some pictures, but I don't, so I wont. -Good News! My friend Patrick leaves the MTC for the Ukraine on Tuesday morning! I'm soooooo very excited for him. He's going to be a wonderful missionary. - I have a friend! Okay, I have several, but this one's an on-campus friend. For some reason this semester, I haven't really felt like talking to people in my classes (I've had a lot on my mind lately.) BUT, in Physics on Tuesday when I sat down, I just starting talking to the guy sitting next to me like we'd been life-long best friends. It caught be by surprise, but it was refreshing so I didn't stop myself. Then on Thursday he saved me a seat. Yay! - On Friday I went to a Pirate's theme dance. It was way fun! -Okay, last update... So I accidentally left my homework for the weekend in my locker on campus and didn't have the car (Amber was at an all day track meet.) I was distressed at first, but it turned out to be an awesome blessing in disguise. I got to just hang out with my family for a few hours which I haven't really done for a while. Hannah and I DDR'd it up for like an hour and a half. It was so fun. I LOVE playing DDR (dance dance revolution) with her! Then Michelle and Sarah put on the most spectacular puppet show for the family. It was, no joke, 45 minutes long! Whew. But was totally packed with comedy, mystery, suspense, comedy, romance, comedy, accidental violence and so much more! Wish you could've seem it. We were rolling in laughter! :) Happy Chocolate Chip Cookies! Good Night! (or nite)

Slip'n Slide

Just had to say that I am LOVING the snow! There's more snow then I've seen in years and I couldn't be happier! Yesterday on campus, piles of snow from clearing the walks, seriously the size of a school bus, dotted the university. Magically they disappeared during the night!? Where'd it go? But, don't worry, today the sidewalks were completely covered in ice. It was so fun/funny. It was like ice-skating from class to class. No one would pick up their feet, and LOTS of people slipped (which wasn't fun or funny...but secretly funny.) Happy Winter!

SCHOOL = COOOOL

Hello friends! Well, schools back in. I'm going year round until I graduate (April '11, unless I decide to do an internship.) I'm really excited! I love my major (Food Science with a Chemistry Minor) and I even enjoy reading my 1000+ pg textbooks. So, that's pretty much my life now... Yay!
