La la la.. LOGAN!

I love Logan. I love everything about it. I'm so happy I came here! Seriously everything is so beautiful and wonderful and I just can't wait for everything to come. (okay, yes I can wait) But really. Don't worry about me guys, I'm definitely meant to be here.

My roommate is the greatest! During the summer I was stressing a little bit about it. Would she be a party animal and stay up all the night? A lot of questions had been running through my mind. About a week ago, I felt that she was going to be amazing and we would get along really well. We totally do! I already love her. I'm so happy!

Pictures up soon of my new room :)

Is this real life?

Hey guys! I thought I should post since I haven't in a while. Also, I needed a break from packing! Packing is seriously so draining. I feel it will never end. But anywho, here is my progress so far! (It's pretty much done)

 



I can't believe all that stuff is mine/will fit in my dorm. Crazy! It's really happening. I'm leaving Saturday bright and early! Stay tuned to hear all about my adventures :) love you all! Thanks for everything.

news!

I've got some NEWS!

So I've been applying for some on-campus jobs and its pretty stressful. It's weird starting from square one again.. but it's a good thing! I needed to update my resume anyway. I had an interview last week and I felt it went pretty well! But, I didn't get the job. Don't worry, I wasn't too discouraged. Maybe it just wasn't meant to be. I've applied for 3 more jobs but one job in particular that I REALLY want just got back to me!! Yay! I got a phone call this morning and she wants to interview me right when I get up there. It's at the Student Health and Wellness center, kind of like an on-campus doctor's office. Neat huh? I would be at the front desk, helping people get checked in. But I'm happy because that's right where I want to be! I'm so excited. I hope I get it! Cross your fingers.

It's official. I PASSED MY CNA TESTS! I'm officially a Certified Nursing Assistant.

Everything will work out for the better :)

In between.

I'm sick of fake. I know this is too much to ask... but can't we all just be nice?
It stings to know that some people that you care most about, treat you like crap.

Ouch.

Oh well. I guess this is how we can tell who our true friends are.

13 days folks! Crazy. This "in-between stage" is so hard.
I'm scared.
happy.
nervous.
excited.
not ready.
ready.

I can do this. I'm doing it! Life is really happening.

Moving is stressful.

Time is slipping away by the minute.. can you feel it?
I'm moving to Logan in 17 days! Can you believe it?

I know it's crazy. In a way I wish there was more time, there's just so much more I need to do, need to see, people to hang out with before I peace out. But it's time. I am ready. Well ready or not, here I come! I'm almost done getting all my dorm stuff. It stresses me out. Did you know Moving is highest in stress only next to death and divorce? It's true. Some moments I want August 20th to come so badly. I'm just excited for new things to come! I think it's good I'm getting out of Provo/Orem. I'm ready to see a different place and new experiences.

Oh p.s. I've got a job interview tomorrow via skype! It's for an office assistant job in the Special Ed. department at the University. Cross your fingers! Any prayers are welcome as well :)

I'm officially done at Farr's Fresh. It has never felt so good! I'm so glad my mom told me not to work up to the day I leave. Even though it's only been a few days, I've been so busy and have had so much to do. It's definitely a blessing in disguise. Mothers know best after all.


Last Friday we took our CNA tests! It went pretty well.. cross your fingers again! We'll find out the results next week. Have a good night! :)

California, you were good to me.

Dear Bloggers,
It's been a while, forgive me? Get ready for a recap of the last couple of weeks! Two weeks ago I went to California with Ray, Ames, and Savannah girl. We stayed at my grandma's in Laguna Niguel. It was so much fun! It was so nice to get away from Provo for the time being. The weather was incredible. Warm with a nice ocean breeze. Sounds like heaven right? It was. Ready to hear a neat experience?

On Saturday morning, we had planned to go to the Newport Beach Temple do to baptisms. They told us to come in anytime before 8:30. So my Alarm goes, I turn it off, and fall back asleep. Typical haha. So we are rushing to get there on time and I call the temple and ask them to please let us in, that we're almost there and the temple worker turns us away. I explained that we were from Provo but it wasn't good enough. We were 8 minutes late. Bummer. So my mom calls to see how it went and I told her the story, (my mom, having worked in the temple before thought that it was wrong). She called the temple, and told the Matron what happend and she was very upset when she heard we were turned away. The next day, in the Saddleback Singles Ward, we hear news that the Temple is now open till 9:30! Isn't that great?? The phone call my mother made was meant to be. Anywho, we go back to the temple on tuesday right before heading home and it was amazing! We got to talk to the Matron afterwards and she was so friendly! It was such a great experience. God works in mysterious ways.

After we got home, I've mainly just been working. Speaking of which, I'm almost done! My last day is July 30th. Crazy. But I really am excited. I want to be able to spend more time with friends and family before I go/get more things for college/pack. You know what I'm saying? :)
Thanks girls! So much fun :)

You've been on my mind

This week I survived 5 days of work! I worked 5 out of 6 days we are open. (well technically it was 4.5 shifts, not 5, but I was working for 5 days so I for sure counted it). Forgive me if I seem to be complaining. It's not that I don't like work, I just feel like I work so much. Goodbye summer? June's already gone! crazy. Maybe I've just been there too long and need something new to see? I've only got about 5 weeks left, I'll  hang in there :) and besides, my co-workers are so great! I would not be able to endure those long days and nights without them. So to you I say THANK YOU! :)

I secretly wish there was more time. I feel that every thing is slipping out of my grip too fast. I move out in 7 weeks. SEVEN WEEKS. That's crazy folks. There's so much I need to do! There's so many things I want to do before I leave. Summer, please don't go so fast. I love you and want to enjoy you!

On a better note...4 days till CALIFORNIA! Oh heavens I can't wait. It will be so nice to get away. I've been dying for a vacation. Beach here we come! I can't wait to live in my swim suit for 4 days straight. yeahhh!

My dear friend Emily is teaching me how to budget! I'm so excited! I hope I can get it down good and be good at budgeting. Because let's be honest...Where does that money go?

Do you love Sundays as much as I do? They're so amazing. The Gospel is true! I'm loving my new ward. The Bishop is pretty great and so are the youth. "Fear God more than man." and, "Change is possible to anyone if you do it with Faith." Heavenly Father answer our prayers! He cares so much for us, it's incredible. Don't give up! He's always there for us. I'm so grateful for my Savior. What a perfect example. Thank YOU.

Happy 4th of July errrybody!
