Hi.. remember me? For those of you who are wondering, yes, I am still alive. For those of you who I have not talked to recently (which is pretty much everyone) I miss you... I do. I've just been... busy. I know. That's no excuse for not calling/texting/hanging out with any of you... but I've been a little caught up in life. ...Not in actually having one though, so don't get excited for me or anything.. Things have just been.. busy.
School started up since I last blogged. Yes. Good ole school. My classes are CRAZY. For 2 of my classes alone my time spent in class equals about 25 hours a week (and that's if I'm lucky and they don't hold us late.. or have us doing some catering event). So let's just say I've been a little stressed during these past two weeks. New school. New place. New apartment. New everything. It's just been a little hectic. I'm starting to kind of settle in though. But hey, anyone in Provo.. I know a total of about 3 people in my apartment complex/ward.. so if you're ever bored and want to hang out, my weekends are pretty open. :)
The new roommates are... interesting I guess. They aren't scary like the crazies, but we don't really seem to have much in common. One of them I haven't ever said more than "Hi" to and I've only seen her about three times. They all come straight home from school/work and go straight to their rooms with their doors closed. I have the feeling we're not really going to become very good friends. The two I've at least had a conversation with them that was longer than a single word... but I don't really know them yet. Maybe it's just that awkward new roommate thing, but I kind of get the vibe that they're really just not that interested in actually getting to know me. I think most people find me somewhat... intimidating.
My classes are fun though. Except for a lot of things being a major review. But I'm hoping once we get past the first few weeks things will start to pick up. I've learned a TON in my baking class though. :) We're learning more than just how to follow a recipe. We're learning why a recipe is what it is. Why things like water temperature matter. It's a lot more math and science than following a recipe. It's taking some getting used to. But hey, I like a good challenge.
My ward is older. It's weird. Still. Even though they aren't as old as my last ward. But they aren't very outgoing here either. It seems like they've all kind of been here for forever and no one feels the need to make new friends or even new acquaintances. It's been a struggle. But this is only week two so I'm hoping it will get better. :)
Some exciting news though... I'm going to see Peter Pan on Saturday! This is one of the few times I can see myself actually supporting BYU. Hah. I can't help it if (this time) they have good taste in theatre. It's better than what UVU is doing: Oklahoma! (Though don't get me wrong... I like Oklahoma! I would just much rather watch Pan. Wouldn't you?!)
The Saturday after that, I have plans to go to some improv thing with Nicole. It's apparently really popular. And we're getting in for FREE! (I love having connections... or at least knowing people with connections). We're also getting a backstage tour from her uncle who promised to introduce us to all cool people. He also said he would tell us who to flirt with and who to avoid. Haha. It's going to be great. I love improv. And boys. What could be better to mix them both together?!
Courtney Cook.. is one of the greatest people ever. She wrote me a song. That is now my ringtone. And I feel so special because it's the best ever. :) And she has the best Spanish accent. I love her so and she makes me happy.
Umm... Let's see what else about my life? My dear best friend Elder Dallon Holloway is almost at the year mark! Today is day 341 of his mission. :) Woohoo. I find this very exciting. Yes I do.
Is there anything else about my life you're just dying to know? Umm... I just awkwardly walked in on my roommate spooning with a kind of attractive young gentleman. That's pretty interesting. And they just stared at me. AWKWARD. ha.
Oh. And I am kind of swooning over this boy.. except the problem is that I don't know his name. But I see him every Thursday and Friday. And sometimes Mondays (it depends on where my class meets). But I've talked to him once. And he's kind of pretty. And he's super nice... from what I know from talking to him once... but yes. That's that.
Okay well I think I'm done blabbering on and on. OH WAIT! No I'm not!!! Pineapple Wednesday is BACK! YAY. (If you don't know what this is... check out http://www.pineapplewednesday.blogspot.com/ for more details on my crazy experiences with pineapple).
