Wow... I can't believe it is October already! It is crazy to think that the last time I blogged I was only thinking about coming to USU. Life has been so busy and crazy I can hardly catch my breath sometimes but I love the college life. My aunt and a few family friends have always told me that moving away from home was a great experience but I was scared to move away from my family. I miss them a lot, but we talk regularly so it is not as bad. I love college. I am currently taking Creative Arts, Math, History, and an Interior Design class online. I like my room mates and have met tons of people up here.... including some boys :D haha. Life is great. I hope I can post some pictures soon.

Study Abroad....London
Hello!!! So I have been blog stalking (I know, I know, but I couldn't help myself) and I found one blog about a girl who went to Europe for a whole semester!!! I think her study abroad program was in London, England but they visited several other places. As I was reading her blog, and looking at pictures, I decided that I want to do that. I want to go travel and go to school in London. It would be such an awesome experience. I have always wanted to go to Europe, and to travel. Mostly to go sightseeing.
So because I think it would be awesome to go and do study abroad, I checked to see if Utah state has anything or any programs that goes to England or any part of Europe. I know they have some for Asia, but I would much rather go to Europe...... and guess what! They do! I don't think I would do it till my senior year or something later on but it is definitely something I want to do, and something I am thinking about. Just thought I would share....
P.S. This weekend was amazing!!! So watch out for my posts on my awesome weekend. :D

My top 5
So on my friends blog she wrote about the tradition of The 5. The 5 are five people that, should you have the opportunity to make out with them, you could totally do it and nothing you did would count. They can be celebrities, random people you met on the street, fictional people...it doesn't matter. They can be from any time too.
I think this is a beautiful tradition, and like her I want to share my 5. The most wonderful part of it is...no one can judge your 5!
That being said, here are my 5. Remember, this is a judge-free list...
#5: Ian Somerhalder- I just think he is hot ;D
#4: Ryan Reynolds- He is a little older but I still think he is super cute!!!
#3: Chris Pine- I am a sucker for blue eyes AND he is amazingly attractive.
#2: Paul Wesely- I think he is an awesome actor, and I honestly think he would have been a PERFECT choice for Edward in Twilight. He is also HOT!!
#1: Zac Efron- I have loved him ever since High school musical and I swear he gets hotter every day. He is so Attractive!!!!!! ;D
My Alternates would be: Taylor Lautner, Josh Duhamel and David Archuletta.

Utah State University
EXCITING NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!In my last post I stated that I wanted to go to school full time, and I am happy to announce that I will be attending Utah State University in Logan Utah this fall. I am so excited and can't wait to go! I talked to them and got my application deferred for this fall. I am so so so excited. Right now I am working on financing and housing but soon I will be picking my classes and getting everything ready to go. On March 1st my sister Emily and I are taking a trip up there to look at housing and talk to our financial adviser. It is crazy thinking that I will be moving out soon! I am actually thinking that I will move up in the summer and get a head start on looking for jobs. I can't wait to open a new chapter in my life.... cheesy, but true :)

My Thoughts..........
I just thought I would share some of my thoughts that have been running through my head lately.
On January 30th at 4:30 pm my friend Chris Neil Sperry got in a car accident and died instantly. He was at a stop sign turning left when a red truck hit him on the drivers side of the car. It was a Sunday afternoon and he was leaving our Singles Ward to go home to his family (He had blessed and partaken of the sacrament, as well as attended all his meetings that day). This past week has been really hard for me, but also a time where I have been able to take a step back and take a look at my life. Chris was an amazing man. At his viewing and funeral everyone talked about how he was always smiling and how he was ALWAYS nice to everyone. I honestly can't remember ever being around him and him say something rude or mean about anyone else. He was a person I loved to be around and he was so easy to get a long with. Looking back on HIS life it makes me want to be a better person. I feel like I owe it to HIM and to ME.
For the past year or so I feel like I have been in a Limbo kind of. I do have a job so I work full time but that's not what I want to do anymore. I want to be a normal college student. I want to move out, and go to school during the day and get a part time job. I want to whole college experience. I honestly feel like I skipped a whole chapter of my life after high school. I took classes at night after work but it's just not working for me anymore. I have been scared to go to school because I don't have the money for it and I am afraid of student loans. But after what happened to Chris, I want to LIVE. I want to live my life the way I want to. I want to have fun, and date, and be a student at a college and MOVE OUT! Don't get me wrong I love my family and I would miss them if I moved out, but I really think I need to move out.
Something else I learned about Chris this week was that before his mission (which was to Mexico) he got a Spanish Book of Mormon and read it about 3 times before he even went into the MTC. What a great example. I have been a slacker in that area lately, but again it is something I want to change. I want to grow spiritually this year and I want to do that by reading MY scriptures everyday and praying ON MY KNEES morning and night. That is what Chris did, and that is what I want to do too.
There are a lot of things I need to change in my life. I think that it is sad that it takes a friend to die for me to look at myself and realize that I need to change.

Movie Weekend :D
This weekend was actually a lot of fun! I guess I got to watch more movies than I thought :D
Thursday the 25th was obviously Thanksgiving and in my other post I stated that I went to play football in the snow. Then helped cook all the food and then my family sat down and ate all our delicious food. Then when we were cleaning up my dad decided it would be good for me to learn how to get all the meat off the chicken... it was so gross!!
Friday I had to actually work(which stunk) but after work I got to hang out with some friends from my ward. We ended up watching The Holiday while making treats, but the real reason we hung out was to watch ELF (which we did after the holiday). Both are fantastic movies.
Saturday was kind of a relaxing day. I got to sleep in and watch some movies. I rented The Killers and then that night I went and saw Tangled with my mom and my sisters. I totally recommend Tangled... it was so funny and cute, I LOVED it! 
Sunday I went to my family's ward because Me; my mom; and my sisters Emily, Abby and Ashley all sang How Gentle God's Commands as the intermediate hymn in sacrament. After we sang I went to my singles ward which is always amazing. After church though I hung around because I had a meeting at the Institute at 5 so there was basically no reason to go ALL the way home and then come ALL the way back for a meeting. After my meeting I came home and ate real fast before going to our woman's choir for my family's ward. After that I got to come home and enjoy one of my favorite TV shows: The Amazing Race!

Catching up... I know a lot of it is RANDOM but oh well :D
So I am trying to catch up on EVERYTHING that has happened. I know i am missing a lot, but oh well. I will try to do better at blogging more frequently so I don't always have to "catch up" but we will see how that goes.
*For Thanksgiving we decided to play football....IN THE SNOW. It was fun but i was FREEZING!
*On November the 18th I was in charge of our harry potter PRE-Movie party. We decorated Brother Murri's house with a Harry Potter theme. We had a potions table and fake trees (one with the car in it) and other decorations around the house. It was so much fun. I will have to track down some pictures and post them! Then we went and saw Harry Potter 7 part one at midnight all together. It was so much fuN!
*Last week there was a "blizzard" and this is the view from my house:
*A little bit ago a bunch of my friends from my ward decided to go see a movie. We went and saw inception (which i had already seen)... But it was still GREAT!
*One day we decided to put the headband i used for my lady bug costume and put it on my niece Bella. She cried at first but then she calmed down a little bit. SHE IS SO STINKING CUTE!!!!
*SO during Halloween I was in charge of our regional Halloween dance and we did all the food. So the night before we made TONS, and I mean TONS of popcorn. We did white chocolate and caramel popcorn. Here is what we made :D
