California!!!

I love being with family and Siblings! ...and the 80 degree weather isn't bad either. When I can go outside at 530 in the morning with a thin beach jacket and shorts and not die... that's the life. Don't get me wrong though, I'm super excited about living in the snow... but it's nice to be warm for a little bit. And in December, when it gets a little too cold for me, I'll come home to my warm paradise. A little of what I've done this week, I played volleyball, basketball, ping pong and I ran a 10K. Oh, and I've eaten more than I have in months. Delicious! I went to Disneyland too with Athena and Kimly who I haven't seen in a long time and Lynne and Dave. It was a little crowded but we still had a great time. I'm still a little sore from running... like I can't move! so yeah, it's been a great week. But I'm ready for a break from my break! haha

Bros at BYU

So there's Palmer of course! he's going to be my new roommate. He's awesome cool and VERY energetic at times, just my type. haha But we have a lot in common. I like all of his music, and he likes most of mine I think. (that's very important in a roommate I've come to find out)
Will, this dudes sweet! he's unlike any other and he's not afraid to show you. Lives life to the fullest and just a great guy. Hopefully we can go hit the slopes a lot together next semester with no classes on Tuesday or Thursday!!!
Conor!!! We do Calc Homework and I'm pretty sure neither of us would have survived the past few weeks in that class without each other. He loves We Shot the Moon (one of my new favorite bands possibly) and he's going to the Baltic's on his mission. Just an all around cool guy. He used to go to sleep by about 10, but we're slowly breaking him from the habit. muahaha.
*These are definitely the three that I hang out with the most. They're awesome and we never fail to have fun.

In'N'Out strikes OREM!!!

I just went to In'N'Out and it was GREAT!!! and yes, I'm still in Provo!!! this could mean only one thing... the In'N'Out in Orem Utah (5 minutes from BYU campus) just opened TODAY!!! It as packed, but we still got our food in less than 20 minutes total. it was impressive. Oh and people actually camped out in front last night waiting for it to open this morning! It made me proud that so many people were as excited about it opening up as I was.

Idaho Fun

This last weekend, Becca was going to BYU-Idaho to visit Lauren and Karina and to go to a dance on Friday night. She had no one to drive up there with so I abliged... haha I'm not going to lie, I wanted to go. So after class on Friday, 2ish, we drive off to Idaho and get there about 630ish. I stayed with Ryan's friend Spencer in the dorms, about two dorrs down from Ryan, and met all Ryan's friends. They're really cool guys and I kinda felt like I was going to be there for a while. Saturday we went to the caves and played Hide and go seek with glow in the dark juices. haha It was awesome, and we did some off roading too. Later in the night we went to the sand dunes and jumped off/rolled down them. I had a great time and Ryan fed me well. It was good to see him again.
p.s. I told Ryan he needs to ask a specific girl out, so hopefully he gets on that... :D

"My Dad's the Greatest Dad!"

I want to dedicate this post to my dad. My dad is amazing and I love him very much. He has been a great role model in my life and he has taught me important lessons on how to be a great Husband, Father, and Priesthood holder without even knowing he was doing it. But I have always been watching you dad, and you never cease to amaze me. You do so much for our family because you love us and you want the best for us. You've given me everything I've ever needed and then some and you ask for nothing in return. And the greatest thing you've given me is your time. You have always been there for me when I needed you. The thing I'm going to remember the most about you when I'm grown up is the time we spent together in the backyard... washing cars, planting flowers, doing jobs for mom/grandparents. The time I spent with you one on one while I was an only child is the time I'm going to remember the most. I love you dad. You're the BEST!

Vivid Dream

Have you ever had one of those dreams where you wake up and you SWEAR it really happened? Well I had one of those last night. I dreamt that I had gotten my mission call a while back, but I put it away and forgot about it. But then I remembered that I had it in my drawer, so I got it out and held it up to the light and read that I had been called to Idaho on a military mission and after a few months of that I would be transferred by jet pack to a regular mission. This isn't the first time I've dreamt about getting my mission call either. I've dreamt that Ryan Brassfield and myself were called to Antartica. 0_0 haha crazy dreams.

That's Hot!

So I was walking back to my dorm after my Calc Lab and saw this guy pull up in the parking lot on a motorcycle. Then a girl, I'm going to guess is his wife, gets on and the guy gets off. The girl tells him to call if he wants a ride home after class then leaves on the motorcycle, and she knew how to ride.... So I'm watching her ride out of the parking lot and down the street and this guy walking next to me says, "That's Hot!" hahaha... :D ...yeah

Sometimes, don't you just feel like an idiot?

So it's been three months that I've been going to BYU and I have my dad's old laptop to use. But for the life of me, I couldn't figure out how to fix the volume. One day it would be quiet, but hearable, and the next you couldn't hear it at all. Well, today I figured out what the french toast was going on. Turns out, the knob on the front of the computer isn't there for nothing. It's the VOLUME knob!!! Man, part of me is so upset it took me this long to find it, and the other part is SOOOO glad I FINALLY found it. Sometimes, don't you just feel like an idiot?

Yesterday I bought my lunch out of the vending machine and was going to cook it in the microwave because I was short on time. So I put the pizza rolls in and turned it on for 80 seconds like the package says. I press start and I wait. I was amazed at how quiet the microwave was and I thought it was weird how this one didn't have a light turn on inside while your food was cooking. But I didn't think of it anymore than that. There were other people waiting to put their food in too so I was trying to hurry. So when the timer went off I open up the microwave and feel the pizza rolls... THEY'RE STILL FROZEN! I was a little mad and thought this was the weakest microwave in the world and put them back in for yet, ANOTHER 80 seconds. I'm standing there and then when the timer got down to about 35 seconds left, I finally realized that I was using the TIMER not the COOKING TIMER!!! hahahahaha. man I felt dumb. I stood there for a minute and a half while my food just sat there in the microwave not cooking at all. I actually said to the guy waiting patiently behind me, "I'm so stupid" but he didn't hear me. Actually I don't think he even noticed at all because he never corrected me. Sometimes, don't you just feel like an idiot?
