I can tell that we are gonna be friends.

First week of school report:

  • I missed the library. A lot a lot. I think I've been there every day since school started. Minus today of course.
  • My new roommate is darling. My twin separated at birth maybe?
  • Don't bring carrots to eat in the library. I felt like everyone in the periodicals could've eliminated me if looks could kill.
  • I like that I can eat crunchy peanut butter, multi grain bread, garden vegetable cream cheese, all the veggies I want, and not be tempted to eat junk food, because there is none in my cupboard.
  • I like that pretty much everywhere I want to go is within walking distance.
  • Kylie and I aren't as good at guessing people's names as we thought.
  • Sometimes I have no motivation to make friends.
  • But I have great people in my life to give me good advice to stop worrying about me and look outside myself.
  • I saw a billboard that said "You're worth more than just to be looked at." So true. We worry too much about what we look like.
  • Roommate prayer makes me feel happy and unified.
  • Being back in Provo makes me sad in some ways, it brings back lots of memories, but I need to look back on those memories fondly and remember the great lessons learned and move forward to make more memories.
  • I love people watching.
  • I love trying to figure out how different people work.
  • Kristen and I decided we need a little more spice in our life. Since I'm not really the rebellious type, my way of doing this is asking people really forward questions and seeing their reactions. I love it.
  • I don't like feeling... dumb I guess. I also started my new job this week and I have to learn where everything is and how to do a lot of stuff, which is kind of overwhelming at first, but I'm a quick learner, I just have to get over the learning curve.
  • I love being in control of my own self. I love being able to shape my own environment. I love seeing how the choices I make directly affect the outcome of what I'm doing.
  • I love knowing that God puts certain people into our lives for a reason, and knowing that if I'm living right I could be that person for someone, that He trusts me that much.
  • Being at BYU is just as much about relationships as it is about school. I need to remember that people are just as important, if not more, than school. Remember that everyone you see could be having the hardest day of their life.
  • I loooooooooooooooooove learning. I'm taking way hard classes this semester, but all things that are so interesting to me, things that I can see and understand what is happening down at the molecular level, which a lot of people don't actually care about, but I think is super interesting and cool! I'm stoked to create my own world someday.
  • Smile! Life is great.
