Timpanogas Gateway...

HEY
I have finally moved!!! My new place is a MESS but as soon as I get all moved in it will look super nice!! I have lost the cord that hooks my camera up to my computer so I can't show you any pictures at the current time. But never fear I will post some soon!! I am so blessed to be able to live in such a wonderful place!

On Wednesday the new semester starts and I can't wait to get going! It will be a busy time for me but I am ready to embrace it! I will be taking 5 classes this semester. And once the semester is over I will only have 4 more semesters to go...haha...

Congrats to my mom who is almost done. She will graduate in April with a medical computer something or other. She's smart and I'm so proud of her for doing it. She's wanted to go back for a long time and now after all her hard work she's almost done!

This Friday I will be making the trip up to the Great Northwest to visit the fam. And I can't wait!!! I miss them terribly! I haven't seen them since January so it will be fun to catch up. My sister is going to be turning 17 in a couple of months and she is going to be starting her Junior year in high school next week. I can't believe and fast she is growing up!! She is taller than me now :o(...but it's not like I'm huge or anything so we all new that that would happen! haha

Anyways...that's all for now...I will post lot's of fun pics next week after I get back from Washington! :o)

Good Luck to all those starting school soon...have fun! heehee...

New Theme Song...for this point in my life!!...

Chris Daughtry
Over You

Now that it’s all said and done
I can’t believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down
Like an old abandoned house
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath
I felt as if I was in way to deep
Guess I let you get the best of meeee

(Chorus)
Well I never saw it coming
I should have started running
A long, long time agooo!
And I never thought I’d doubt you
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know
I’m slowly getting closure
I guess it’s really over
I’m finally gettin’ better
Now I’m picking up the pieces
From spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
‘Cause the day I thought I’d never get through
I got over you!!!
(End Chorus)

You took a hammer to these walls
Dragged the memories down the hall
Packed your bags and walked away
There was nothing I could say,
And when you slammed the front door shut
A lot of other’s opened up
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for meee

(Chorus)
Well I never saw it coming
I should have started running
A long, long time agooo!
And I never thought I’d doubt you
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know
I’m slowly getting closure
I guess it’s really over
I’m finally getting’ better
Now I’m picking up the pieces
From spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
‘Cause the day I thought I’d never get through
I got over you!!!
(End Chorus)

I never saw it coming
I should have started running
A long, long time agooo
And I never thought I’d doubt you
I’m better off without you

And I never saw it coming
I should have started running
I’m finally getting better
Now I’m picking up the pieces
From spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
And I got over you!!!
And I got over you!!!
And I got over you!!!

The day I thought I’d never get through
I got over you…

other random thoughts from that past month...

In all this past month has been exciting and a learning experience for me!...I am getting ready to move soon. I know that it's the right time but I am sad that things are changing! I don't handle change well but I'm working on being better at that. Things have really fallen into place as far as school goes. I'm SUPER excited for the upcoming semester but a little nervous! I am going to be taking 15 credits and working 38.5 hours a week...CRAZY...I know that I won't have much of a life. But I've discovered that you really make time in your life for the things and the people that are truly important to you!

I am about to embark on a new adventure. I am excited to see what life has in store for me. I truly believe that the Lord puts you in a place where you will learn the most. And now I feel it's time for me to move on and learn something different from new people. I have LOVED living at Alta and have learned soooo much about myself from the people I have met there. I have made some truly lasting friendships there. I guess I just want people to know that I feel so blessed for the experiences that I have had in my life the past 5 years. Change is always hard. But I'm learning that it is necessary if I want to grow. I feel really good about my move to the Timpanogas Gateways Condos.

I never realized how much crap one acquires after living so long in one place! haha I have thrown out so much stuff...I'm so proud of myself!! haha It's fun to look through all of my old stuff though. It brings back so many old memories. I've decided that sometimes packing can be fun. But I can't wait to unpack in my new place!! YEAY....well thanks for listening :o)

BYU Intramural Champs!

On August 7, the intramural softball team that I play on played in the Championship game. And we WON!!! We were undefeated in the tournament. Unfortunately I wasn't feeling well that day at all!! But I tried to play my best. We had a blast playing together! Everyone on our team really got along well and played well together! And we were even down 3 people at the last game and we still won...YEAY for us!

Oh and...we got these really cool T-shirts that say that we are Champions...just in case other people didn't already know...haha...

Manti Temple Trip

Well on August 2 our ward went to the Manti Temple. It was a WONDERFUL experience!! I just love that Temple! There is sooo much history there. Before our session we met with the Temple President and his wife for a half and hour. I was asked to say the opening pray...and for those of you who know about my "Public Prayer History" know that it didn't go as planned! haha...I figured that since I was in the Temple that everything would go great!...my bad...I was humbled. The actual prayer went fine BUT as I was walking down the stairs I slipped...haha...just my luck. I did catch myself before my face actually hit the ground. :o)

Here are a few pictures from the day. Sister Tracy wouldn't let me a picture of her though...




In all I enjoyed my trip down to Manti very much!!
