All Hallows Eve*


Happy Halloween!
Today is the day! I am so excited! It is literally the first Halloween I have celebrated since I was about 10... I'm pretty much pumped! I'm going to BYU's Hallapoluza and possibly to some Engineering Haunted House thing. Considering the Engineers at BYU are pretty much Geniuses (nicholas alan tanner) I think it might be borderline AWESOME! I'm going to be Little Bo Peep... it is going to be cold... but I'll tough it out :D

In other non-Halloween related news:

I got the first of my second set of Blocks today. I am so excited. It was wonderful to not be in pain yesterday! I was able to walk up stairs like normal people! Who ever imagined I would be amazed at such a simple thing... it's funny how perspectives change. My goal is to be able to walk up the stairs the night before my block, so that when I get my blocks, I'll be able to do things like hiking and biking and all the other outdoorsy stuff I used to love... minus running... that one might take a bit longer :D
The needle gets inserted into my the one labelled 3 I believe... i think that's what they were saying in the OR... They put music on my ears, so I couldn't hear as well... apparently i'm supposed to freak out or something... they don't know me very well :D

Well, Have a wonderful Halloween... I am going to go home today and celebrate my Big Bro's birthday :D... I can't wait!

*Forgive the Lack of Creativity in the Post title, I'm pretty sure that I could come up with something better, but i'm supposed to be doing Chemistry Homework right now...

This Thing, Called Life

Here I am. A month and a half into school and not a single blog post. What kind of Blogger am I? :D So, I'll give you the cliff note version of my life.

Roommates:
These are my roommates! I love them to death! We have had so much fun at college-- talking, laughing, playing-- anything but homework :D. I don't think I could have asked for better people to live this first year with!

Classes:

I like this cartoon, it kind of puts everything in perspective for me, but it doesn't stop me from being stressed out. Classes are amazing, though it's a lot of hard work, I think that I'm prepared to do semi-decent. I still have all A's and A-... btw... coming from GA, this whole A- thing is really throwing me for a loop... Heaven Help me!
As for my major, BYU doesn't allow Double Majors... well, they allow them, it's just that they can't figure out how a music education degree and a nursing degree will ever help me in my life... so I have to choose one. I think I'm choosing nursing, though, any who know me also understand that this could change at the drop of a hat.

College Life:

I love love love love college! I am having so much fun! The people are fantastic, my friends are amazing and The spirit of campus is undeniable! I'm really glad I decided to apply, I know this is where i'm supposed to be, and whether or not I make it into the nursing program, I'm going to finish up all four of my years here.

I don't think there is much else... just that i love college!
