How is it that in 2 weeks, I will be done with my first year of college? What? Where did all that time go?
Basically I've been thinking that my life is about to change a lot. I mean I know that College=change but someone really should have told me that college=constant change.
What's changing you ask? Let me tell you.
I am about to become a college Sophomore. (While my brother becomes a high school sophomore. weird.) Wow. That is a lot. Especially since I feel like I've gotten nothing done in the last year. Yeah I took classes but I'm not sure how relevant any of them will be.
I'm moving back home with these guys..
I love my family, I really do. And I miss them everyday. I miss my cute brothers. I really miss watching them grow up. Granted Spencer is 10 and I guess kind of grown up. But I love to watch them have new experiences and everything. It is really exciting getting to see these changes when I do finally see them though. But living at home means living with the parents rules. That is hard for me. I am in college and I have freedom without supervision so why should I have rules when I have supervision? It just makes no sense to me. But I am going to try and be patient. Then I think, what if this is the last time I ever live at home? So if it is, I'm going to make the best of it.
Moving home means not living with these girls anymore..
Living with these girls has been a blast. I could not have asked for better roommates for my first year on my own. Seriously. While we have had a drama, fights, annoyances and everything else. We had a lot of fun. I am very blessed that I got to know such amazing girls by getting to live with them.
Bre was always so busy and kept on top of everything, she studied a lot and always got good grades. She is on the A-team no at school and that is just the perfect place for her to be. She didn't know it but she was an answer to my prayers multiple times and I am so grateful for that. She is a great example to everyone all the time.
Jenna, even though she moved home for this semester, was a great roommate. It was so nice to have someone constantly there to do things with. I was never lonely or bored. I loved that. Who wouldn't want to live with their best friend anyway? I was really sad that she didn't move back even though it gave me my own room. (That has been unbelievably nice) But I look forward to moving back home and being able to spend time with her again.
Brie is such a busy body. Yes, I'll admit it, she is a lot to handle and sometime hard to live with. But that is not always bad. She is just active and always wants to do something. I admire her for that. While she goes to the old folks home, I ditch out to sleep or watch a movie. She really is a sweetheart always means well. She has been fun to live with and get to know. She really is a great person and a joy to be around. Not to mention funny.
Britt has been such a blessing. She was the roommate that I always related to the best. We were always the most similar to me, from day one, but we can still be completely different. At first it was nice to have another roommate with a boyfriend so I didn't feel so lame or needy then when hers went on a mission, she was around more and was just such a joy to be with. She was the roommate I would talk to. We understood each other. I didn't really feel like I could ever go to my roommates, that maybe we didn't know each other well enough except for Britt. It was also a lot of fun to be able to meet her family since they live just down the street.
Jen has been a blast to get to know. She is the oldest in the apartment and has lots of experience so she was our go to person. She works and goes to school so she is hard to get to spend time with but she is hilarious. Having her talk in her sexy voice and just say the funniest stuff and to hear about her dreams in the mornings have been the best. She is so responsible and put together. I wish I could be like that.
I'll miss these girls and all of the adventures we had this year. It is going to be weird to live with new girls and to know that they are living with other girls as well.
Then, something I'm sure none of you knew... This boy leaves...
I'm unbelievably proud of him for serving a mission and can't wait to hear all about it. But I just can't wrap my head around him not being around for two years. When I think about how long two years is I think of, 2 years is half of High School. 2 years I'll be 21, a real life adult. 2 years I'll hopefully only have a year left of schooling. 2 years my brothers will be 17, 14 and 12, all young men and on their way to mission themselves. In 2 years my sister will be 24..ish, That is just so old I don't even want to think about it. In 2 years, a lot is going to change and I just can't imagine not being able to share all of that with him. It is going to be weird. That is all I know. This last semester I only hung out with him. That is not an exaggeration. Ask my roommates. He was and is my best friend and I've gotten to know him so well in the last 4 months especially, I just don't want to lost that in the next 2 years. Our time is dwindling fast, we have two more weeks at school which is the only time that I don't have to fight with other people to get to spend time with him, then we move home and he heads on a cruise right away for 2 weeks. Then we have 2 and a half weeks left before he ships off to rainy Washington (after the MTC of course) It will just be weird to lose him so much so fast. Not only him but all of his insane friends who either are following him a few weeks later to the MTC or off on their own adventures, that I won't see, I won't get a reminder of him. His family who I will go from seeing almost every weekend to rarely. They are the greatest and I am just going to have to visit them. So that is a big change.
Also my Major changed. At the beginning I was a Music Education major. I love music and thought that would be perfect for me but I soon found out that I don't need it as much as I thought I did. This was my hobby and I got nervous about turning my hobby into a career. I didn't want to ruin it. So now I am an Elementary Education Major with a Music Emphasis. So just backwards from what it was before I guess. I am excited to see how this works out. Wish me luck.
This meant my schedule changed and oh boy did it changed. I registered for my classes yesterdays and it just got crazy. I begin classes at 9 everyday and don't finish until 4:15 on Monday and Wednesday and not until 5:45 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Yeah. So next semester, school is going to be my life. That is all. It is a good thing because I am going to have nothing to do. That leads to the next one.
You know when yo graduate then goodbyes and going to college is sad? Not for me. All my best friends came to Utah State with me therefore I was not going to not see anyone or miss people. But now they are gone. So next year I'm basically starting over friend wise. I'm a little scared for that. I haven't had to make new friends since 7th grade.
Lastly, this is not a change but I need it to change. I suck at math. honestly. I am the worst. I failed my last two tests which is making it so I have to do incredible on my next test, the final,or I am done for. Boo.
Anyways, this next little bit is going to be overwhelming and it is starting now. Wish me luck.
