College Life!!!

I haven't posted any pictures of my college life, so here it is.

Well I'm loving college. I'm attending BYU and I love it!
In the last month my life has changed a lot and it continues to change all the time. I think, for the most part, I'm getting this college routine down.
Here are few things that I have learned so far...

  • You have to be bold sometimes even if you're scared
  • If you sleep on the top bunk, don't sit up! Especially not fast because the ceiling is closer than you think.
  • The bus comes on time almost everyday.
  • There are a lot of students at BYU!!! About 30,000!
  • Homework is not that fun because everyone else is playing and having fun.
  • It's not very fun when your money starts disappearing... college is expensive.
  • Callings are scary
  • If you plan on walking to campus from Wyview, give yourself about a half hour.
  • Getting letters in the mail is very fun.
  • The gospel of Jesus Christ is in every aspect of life and I'm grateful my professors can teach me that.
  • Learning new things can be fun.
  • A singles ward sacrament meeting is SUPER quiet.
  • There are a lot of buildings on campus.
  • The BYU library is big! Getting lost is not that hard.
  • Make sure you look at what room number your class is in before you actually walk in. ( I thought I was going to American Heritage but the class a walked into was Sign Language. The teacher was talking to me using sign language! It was silent and EVERYONE was looking at me! I just told them I was in the wrong class. It wasn't that embarrassing, I just laughed)
  • BYU boys are really nice, but there are some that are a little weird :)
  • Going to bed early is harder than it should be.
  • It's really exciting to see a face you know on campus even if you've only met them once.
  • Sometimes it's easy to miss your mom.
  • Having roommates is fun!
Here are some pictures
I love my roommates so much! They are only three of us in our little apartment. I'm very blessed to be living with girls that I love and I get along with. They are both really easy going and I love them.




This is our chastity line that boys are not allowed to cross. Camille and I were having some fun with the camera!




Homework should be a bigger part my my life than it is... I'm a little behind, but I'll be ok. A lot of the time I plan on doing homework all day, but somehow that never works out... I wonder why!




I love football games! This is the game against UCLA. It was an amazing game!




I work at the David O. McKay at the front desk of the Tec Lab. Everyday I learn more and more about computers. It's much different then my last job at West Jordan Care Center, but I still like it and I get to work with my brother, Kevin.


I've learned that there is a whole new world out there! My knowledge about life is expanding in so many ways. We are here on this earth to learn and I'm grateful for this opportunity to experience news things and to meet new people.

Yeah for new pictures! I love them all! It makes me so happy to hear that you are having SUCH a good time and you're loving being a grown-up! College is such a blast.. that's why you should wait at least 4 years to get married.. experience it all and stay away from those WEIRD returned missionaries!! Love you, Cindy!

I like to see pictures, too.
I heard your camera is not working! I will fix it when I come to Provo next week.
