Finally, Finals!

Finals. I've heard so much about them. I’ve always dreaded them, but looked forward to them in a sick, looking forward to complaining about them sorta way. And now they’re here. Well not officially until Thursday actually. And yet, I’ve already taken 3… So I can check Science, American Foundations and Anat. & Phys.  off my list. And how many hours did I spend in library studying for them? Zero. Nil. Zilch. Nought. Why? Because two were open note, take home test. I was disappointed. I was looking forward to countless hours in the library, pulling all-nighters and forgetting to eat. Instead, this is me and Seren studying. (Well… She’s studying… I was… kinda… Does facebook and writing my blog count?)

And yes. That is a bowl of snow we’re eating. Why? It’s snowing. Again. When winter comes to Rexburg, it doesn’t leave. I haven’t seen the sun in way too long. What color is it again? Purple?

Oh, and I'll be home Saturday for Christmas Break!

Midnight Sledding

So tonight it was the lovely Hannah, Seren, and I hanging out watching Never Been Kissed…. When we looked outside at saw it snowing. Again. I swear, its been snowing daily for the past three weeks. And we knew exactly what we wanted to do. Sledding! It was 11:30 pm. So we rushed out the door. After we curled our hair, put make-up on, and spent 30 minutes getting ready…

12:00am we left our apartment and drove to this crazy campus sledding hill. This hill is ICE. Crazy fun. We spent more time on the ground laughing than sledding or climbing. Did I mention we didn’t have sleds? Garbage bags are a college girl’s best friend when she’s sledding.

So 1am we come home. Got a big bowl of snow, made hot chocolate, ate delicious biscotti (thanks mom!), and popped in another movie. Sleepover on the couch? Just maybe :)

Did I mention curfew is midnight on Saturdays? Whoops. 

Four Reasons

Why did I decide to start a blog? Well...

Yesterday, I wrote a letter to my best friends Megan and Eliza. Just about my day. A normal, average Tuesday. And I loved it. I loved how much I enjoyed writing about my average day, because you know what? It was a perfect day. And telling those I love and miss about it made it even better.

My first semester of college is almost over, five more days of classes to be exact. Five. Five more days left of the first chapter of my college life. And I never wrote about it. I’m going to make up for it with this blog. So I’ll be writing memories of this amazing semester, and of course the new experiences I’ll have next semester! (And the one after that, and after that, and you get the point.)

I love reading peoples blogs. Whether I know them or not. I’m obsessed with blogs. And I love writing, so why not write one?

It’s an enjoyable way to ignore my homework :)
