Just Call Me Slacker.


Bishop's Ball!
Ronda, Me, Lissa, and Sarah
I love my roommates!

I know, I know, I haven't posted in far too long. Honestly though, I was having WAY too much fun at home with my family and friends! I hope ya'll can forgive me! (see, I even got the Okie words back!) Anyway, I took some pictures with my friends, and I decided to share them =)
This is Corie ... She's beautiful!
Anthony and I
"Family Photo"
We all claim to be siblings. =)
If only, if only...
Dog Pile on Andrew! Poor guy, look how red his face is!
Here's Andrew with a normal face hahah
And now for the snow... I got back to Utah on Sunday the 4th, and it snowed from Monday morning until Wednesday morning pretty much without a break. It was insane! I am so not used to this cold weather and this much SNOW! It really is beautiful though, and I was able to capture some funny pictures of what happens when it snows so darn much. Enjoy!
It says "Pray for Snow." I guess I just thought it was funny at the time because when I took this photo, it had honestly been snowing for 36 hours straight! I think we done enough prayin' Utah!
Exhibit A: I don't think it's going anywhere.

Exhibit B: Yes, it is hard to find parking at BYU.

Especially when half the spots are covered in snow.

Exhibit C: Last but certainly not least, the beauty that comes after the storms.

Brrr! It's cold out here!


Miss Ronda Mae is now a brunette! Which makes me the only blonde in our apartment...
So I am now the "outcast" in 3 ways: only blonde, only BYU student, only one from out of state! Oh well, I guess being different isn't such a bad thing, eh?





I love living with my best friend!



Snow in October? Toto, I don't think we're in Oklahoma anymore!
I am freezing out here! I didn't think winter was supposed to come this early.
I even had to scrape ice off my windshield the other morning!
I am definitely still trying to get used to the climate change. It's very different, but I love it!


Hooray for rollerblading!
Lissa brought home 2 pairs of rollerblades yesterday and demanded I go with her.
We had a blast! I forgot how much fun it is to rollerblade. I love it!

Pink is My Favorite Color!

So my friend Lydia came over last night to "study," but we all know that when girls get together all they do is talk and go crazy! Well, Lydia had a bright blue streak in her hair and I commented "I want pink in mine!" Here are some pictures to explain the rest of the story! =)


Ahh! It's so PiNK!



Lydia: "I just killed Barney!"





Yep, I got Ronda to do it too!



Don't worry, Mom. This is the most rebellious thing I'll ever do. Ever. ;o)

BYU Lives Up to Its Reputation!

Wow! BYU is TOUGH! But I still absolutely love it here! The more I get to know my roommates, the more I just love them! We've already had so much fun together, and I can tell that there's a lot more to come!

I love my classes, except World Civilizations... it's so long and boring it's hard not to doze off! My American Heritage professor is absolutely amazing though! He's Jeffrey R. Holland's son, and he invites the Spirit with every lecture! It's wonderful! Also, I made the BYU Women's Chorus, so I get to go sing every day with 180 wonderful girls with beautiful voices. It's so much fun, and our conductor is incredible! I can't wait for concerts!

I'm just loving life here, and I'm so grateful to be going to such an incredible University. But I do miss home! Keep me updated on all the news! I'm off to study!

Living in Utah aka: Mormonville, USA

Well, I've decided to start blogging because I'm finally on my own! And because my mom told me to... so I guess I'm not really on my own yet =) I'm all moved in to my new apartment, and I absolutely LOVE my roommates! They all go to UVU, but that's okay because they're super fun and we get along really well. I start classes on Tuesday, and I'm kind of nervous! I'm sure I'm going to be that typical freshman walking around with every book in her bag and a highlighted map of the campus, but that's okay. At least I won't get lost! Wish me luck!
