This could perhaps be the first time I have written in this blog since September. September 4th to be precise. Hmmmmm…. Could this be a problem? No, not really. Probably because there has been nothing very exciting to share about my life. Although I was thinking about blogs the other day and how great they are. And here is why:
When I am an old lady with 44 wrinkles on my face, I am going to be so excited to read about my day-to-day college experiences. AND when I have a daughter who is going through a rough time, I can say “hey, I think I wrote a blog about that” and I will whip it out and read it to her. And I will basically be the coolest mom ever. SO. Here is the decision. I am going to try to write in my blog every day. Every single day. Did you read the part that said try? Good. Because I think that is kind of a key word.
So since last September, here is what has happened in the Fall 2011 Semester:
1. I moved to Autumn Winds.
2. I had great roommates named Allysa, Emily and Kendal.
3. Ashley Middleton got engaged to Matthew Davis.
4. Ashley and I went on a talent retreat and sang “Good Morning BYU” for the talent show… totally won… just sayin.
5. Quinci, Stephanie and I all went with Kiah to shop for bridesmaids dresses all day…
6. I became the coordinator for talent and ran about three shows.
7. I went on some with nice men.
8. I played miniature golf in the Snow Building and almost knocked out my date multiple times with the golf ball.
9. I was going to go whitewater rafting but I didn’t. Probably because I had a meeting.
10. I met and became good friends with Hillary.
11. I went wedding dress shopping with Ashley.
12. I spent a few days with Quinci’s family in American Fork Utah.
13. I tried Café Rio for the first time.
14. I went to Temple Square to see the Christmas lights for the first time.
15. I attended Kiah Griffith’s wedding on December 20th 2011 to Ramon Tangiora.
Over Christmas Break:
1. I spent time with my family.
2. I went down to Eugene for Christmas day to spend time with my extended family.
3. I read the entire book “The Help.”
4. I watched “The Help” for the first time.
5. I got a new Cannon camera for Christmas. And a massage.
And now THIS semester:
1. I started my new job at the Language and Letters Academic Discovery Center as a secretary.
2. I decided that I am staying up here for the Spring semester.
3. I got the calling to be a Relief Society teacher.
4. That’s it.
Okay. That is my life in about a page for the past five months. Oh! And here is some exciting news: Elder Jonathan Kiser and Elder Kyle Dowdle have both been serving their missions in Brazil for SIX MONTHS now!! This means that they are already ¼ of the way through their missions. Hip hip hooray!!!!!
Now for today:
It was a B-E-A-utiful day. The it looked like Spring… almost. Well… it was trying. Church was great. Except I kind of have a hunch that a good portion of our ward didn’t come because it is Super Bowl Sunday. Indeed it is. After a church we attended a Break the Fast with my ward and had deli sandwiches, veggie trays, chips and cookies. And water. Delicious. Especially when you have been fasting all day.
After church I called my family and talked to my little brother Jordan who announced that our pinewood derby car didn’t win for the first time in almost ten years. Someone else must have cheated. Obviously. The Dentons are champions when it comes to the pinewood derby. Everyone knows this.
Then our apartment friend came over. We discussed marriage, rings, married housing, rings, his mission, rings, his mission, his mission, his mission. Yes. I think I may have indeed have finally met someone who is just as excited to get married as I was my first semester. I’m not sure how I feel about this. He got home from his mission in Peru last October. He just broke up with his girlfriend on Thursday. And now he is asking my roommate out on a date. He is back in the game ladies and gentleman.
