Bucket List Update #4

Hey kids!!
 
     I crossed off another thing on my bucket list! I fell asleep during a movie!! Check me the freak out! Ok, I know that might seem like an odd thing to want to accomplish, but it's almost impossible for me to fall asleep while a movie or tv show is playing. I just get too caught up in the movie and watching it and don't think about sleeping. But on the 19th of September, at approximately 2:00 in the morning, I was watching a movie called Courageous with my roommates Shandee and Emi and Jon Maughan and I fell asleep! I woke up when the movie was almost over and I got super excited! :)

Thought I would just let you all know real quick!

Round Two... Don't Mind If I Do

Welp Folks.... here I am again. Back up at Utah State, back to blogging on a weekly basis... it's gonna be great! First, let me tell you why I haven't blogged about anything interesting in a really long time. It's because my life is SUPER boring during the summer. I worked two jobs, slept for 8 hours and would get up and do it all again the next day, nothing to blog about at all! But now that I am back at school, there is definitely adventures that are bound to be had!

Before I moved up to school I did a Cafe Rio run with Kyle and Chelle! It's been forever since I had been there and it was delicious as always! Great food with wonderful friends! Love them dearly :)


Also before I left for USU, my dearest cousin Caleb had his farewell talk and lunch, which my whole family went to. He is leaving in two days for the MTC and he will be serving in the Vancouver, Canada mission! I am SO thrilled for him! Can't wait to finally have a family member on a mission to write!!



I'll miss him like crazy... but he's going to be one amazing missionary!! :)

This year at Utah State, I am rooming with Marlee Kate Matta! I met her last year when she lived just down the hall from me and we have been friends since. Coincidentally we were put in the same apartment in the same room.... crazy, right?! But she is spiritual and wonderful and I love her to pieces! My other roommates are Emi and Kate, who were friends with Marlee before moving up, Shandee girl who I knew of before moving up here and Erin :) We've had loads of fun so far!

For FHE on Monday with the new ward, we had hogie sandwiches on the Quad and just got to get to know the ward, bishop and his counselors a little better. Marlee introduced us to her friend Parker, who is rooming with her brother Eric. He is over at the apartment all the time now, which is great, because he's a doll and is really funny! Kate's friend Mikey has also been over to the apartment frequently. He too is a blast to have around!

On Wednesday our ward went to the open house for the Brigham City temple. We walked through it with the boys from across the hall, Brad, Logan and Max. It was seriously SO beautiful! I can't wait to be married in one one day!

Standing in front of the COOLEST mosaic! Loved it!

It's only been a week of school and already the roommates and I have shared TONS of laughs and met LOADS of new people. I LOVED Snow Hall last year more than anything and the adjustment has been really hard. I have set unrealistic expectations which in the end will end up disappointing me if I don't change my view. Yes it's hard, but it's gonna take some time to get used to new places and new faces. I love my Snow friends, but I am looking forward to loving my Pine View ones just as much!

Also, one final note.... ELDER NIELSON IS HOME!! I LOOOOOOOOVE when friends start coming home from missions! It's the best :)

Until Next Time, "God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply."
