NACURH 2009

Who would have thought I would be so blessed to be experiencing all I am just through following my heart. I really had no idea why I was going to Utah State, but there is no way I would experience all the things I have! I just got back from NACURH (that stands for “National Association of College and University Residence Halls, Incorporated”) which was in Tucson Arizona this year. I had so much fun and learned so much. I met people from all around the nation and also delegates from Australia, Canada, and Mexico! It was huge, and the best thing was we were all so different but had so much in common! I met one girl from Minnesota and during a exercise we were supposed to find one thing in common… it took us 5 mins, but we both are the middle of 3 children with a younger sister and an older breathe NAMED BEN… can you imagine that?! The most exciting part was presenting. I was the only first year delegate to present 2 programs. And my first one was in the second session. I had never resen...

How to Become a ME!

My favorite paper in high school was my How to Become a… paper. It was so much fun to write because it was a directional paper. So I decided to update you with my crazy first day of finals week with a How to Become a successful tester! :) So here goes, hope it entertains. Wake up, it’s Sunday morning (a good Sunday morning if you ignore the third eye on your face). Go to church. ENJOY IT! Call roommate to come pick you up because it is snowing and you didn’t take a jacket to church. Change out of church clothes and go to eat at 4. Eat pasta and decide that is enough. Go back to the apartment and do everything and anything but study. Have a dance party. Watch 3 complete episodes of T.H.S. on the E!, then Center Stage. Go to Ward Prayer and take lots of fun pictures. Eat a cookie and go home. Once you get home decide maybe you should read Chapter 16 of Massey. Enjoy it. You like sociology and the descriptions of why young men are the way they are. At around 11 decide you are really hun...

I Know that My Redeemer Lives

Today was one of the BEST church sessions I have gone to in a long time. It was our last week as a ward, and well all got released. It was such an emotional testimony meeting but so good. As many of you know it is nearly IMPOSSIBLE for me to sit for longer than 45 mins, so to sit through our 2 HOUR! Meeting was amazing for me, but it was because the spirit was so strong. We all pretty much just shared our public appreciation for the ward we were blessed to be a part of. It is funny, because I came from a really great ward, but this ward is AMAZING! I really do feel like these kids are my best friends and I could not wait to go to church every week. The kids in my ward are the most inspired and spiritual kids in the world and I am so blessed to have learned from them this semester. I took the opportunity to share my testimony with them today and I would also like to share it with you. I am so grateful to be here in Utah at Utah State. I didn’t know why I was supposed to be here and not ...

Really long explination

*NOTE: for short explanation check the six sisters blog It was Thursday, and i was restlessly sitting around and checking my e-mail like none have seen before. So I finally got the e-mail on Friday while I was at Relay for life! uggh! so let me walk you through the process I went through to receive such an e-mail... So the 3rd or 4th week, Jordyn and I were tricked into joining our Area Government with PIE!!! yes of all things it was the Banana Cream Pie that started this headache of a year! so I went to eat pie with a few "invitation only" people, and took my pet flamingo. after we had sat there for awhile, I realized I was at the AREA ELECTIONS! so thin I was like "well frick, might as well" so I ran for Programming and Events as a serious candidate and because I didn’t think it was a good idea for someone to run unopposed, I also gave a RIDICULOUS speech with my flamingo and ran for Networking and Communications Coordinator (I didn’t even know what that person di...

me? superficial?

So my roommates and i have been talking a lot about dating lately, because the attractive one names Kelly (but now goes by Bunny) has a cute date with a 24 year old. YUP she is next to be married. :) so last night we got to talking about our expectations and requirements of the guy that we are going to marry. My list was extremely short and un-superficial therefore my roommates were shocked. haha 1. Taller than me 2. DARK hair (that means black) 3. has non-toxic saliva 4. played at least one sport in high school (tennis doesn't count) 5. is a good cuddler 6. doesn't salt his pizza so as you can see i am not superficial and i am going to have a great man... oh but my roommates also pointed out that i only had 2 of these things on my list when i got to USU and every time i get a crush i add another thing to the list, so their prediction is that by the time i am ready to marry this list will be entirely to long and include the one requirement that goes something like "does no...

Facebook Tag

So facebook is a splendid thing, and we are currently playing a little game of tag. so i thought i would post my note from ta so anyone on here could read it too... not to mention i noted this here blog in it, so it only seems fair right? HA enjoy! Once you're tagged, you're supposed to write 25 random things, goals, and habits about yourself. At the end choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person that tagged you. If I tagged you it's because I want to know more about you. [one] i have 3 beds in my dorm room. [two] i push the tip of my nose when i am in deep thought, bored, or really listening... you can tell which one it is by the way i move my finger. [three] cops in Logan are... fake. [four] condoms can hold a lot of water. [five] i hate creative arts. [six] i have a crush on a kid in my english class. [seven] i like the song "seven things i hate about you". [eight] the "quad squad" and "tri pod" are ultimately my best friends ...
