So, yeah. It's been a while.
During the summer I went to the Dominican Republic. Probably one of the most precious memories I will ever have. The people we were with were so amazing. They are in such horrible circumstances and yet they are so happy. They were awesome. We worked in an orphanage and a hospital while we were there. I definitely won't take for granted the sterile gauze and beds that I would get if I were taken to the emergency room.
School has started for the fall. I really, realllly love my classes this semester. I'm taking anthropology, doctrines of the revelation, history to 1500 bce, art history from the renaissance, and english. I love my anthropology class and I really wish that I could be one. However, teaching college really intimidates me.
I figured out that on May 6th I can turn in my papers. It seems really far away but I am pretty sure it will come up fast. Especially because almost all of my guy friends will be home by then! That really blows my mind. I can't believe it's been 2 years already. I still feel like a little kid kinda. this growing up stuff is hard.
Football has started which has made this school year a whole lot easier. BYU opened last week against Ole Miss. We started off a little shaky but were able to pull out a 14-13 win. Utah state almost beat Auburn. That was an insane game. Unfortunately for Utah State, they didn't handle an onside kick as well as they would have hoped and Auburn got the ball back on the 20 yd line. Auburn won by a touchdown. The last time that an unrated team upset the bcs champ was in 1990 when BYU upset the reigning bcs champ. Part of me really wanted Utah State to win.
John Beck and Dennis Pita are starters for their pro teams. John Beck is starting QB for the Washington Redskins and Dennis Pita is starting TE for the Baltimore Ravins. I think it's pretty cool.
Well I must be off.

I wish I could go somewhere like that. So awesome! Guess I will just stick to the U.S. though, going out of it freaks me out a bit. We WILL be in Utah for conference in October! Only we have a crap ton of stuff to do in the 2 days so yeah, hopefully I make it to your town!! (Otherwise please PLEASE come for fall break.)
ReplyDeleteI loved anthropology. Probably one of my fave classes.
May 6th is a long way away my dear. I love that you want to go, butttttttt, remember I met Talon and married him all in 5 months. Yup, May 6th is longer than 5 months away. (: Marry Landon so you can live by me.
I was glad Utah State lost. We hate Utah State! And serious, BYU lost to Texas. Wow. I wasn't even rooting for Texas but now, I'm back as a fan. (; Also, we are naming our second boy Colt. Or McCoy. I like them both.
anyway, come visit! My house wants to be seen by you!
P.S. I've been working out a pton. It rocks. Come be my partner!
