Day 116: A New Semester!!! :D

Why Hello there! It sure has been a while! Almost a month since I last posted! Well, I'm back :D And I have lots to tell you :D

First of all, Fall 2010 semester is over, obviously. At first, I thought I had gotten all B's and 1 A, but, as it turns out, I got 2 B's and 3 A's :D Yay!!! :D I'm very happy with myself, if you couldn't already tell :)

With the Fall semester ending, I had to say goodbye to all my wonderful roommates for a while since they are on a different track than me. I didn't think it would be hard to leave, but then the day came, more like the hour before came, and I just started crying as it hit me. It totally sucked. And then after I left, I forgot my phone, so I had to come back to get it. Then on top of that, when we finally got on the road, I started to feel sick to my stomach. It wasn't 20 minutes before I requested a gas station and as soon as we stopped, I got out and puked right there in the parking lot, next to the car, with the door open. What a wonderful way for 5 strangers to see you. Thankfully, I got inside to the bathroom before the rest came up. But I felt bad because I took like 15 minutes in there. It was not my finest hour, that's for sure.

Anyways, I'm sure you wouldn't like to hear about my sickening woes of the beginning of the drive. That was all of them anyways :) The rest of the drive was just fine. That is, until the car broke down about 30 minutes from Salt Lake. But we were rescued, so it's all good :) So I finally got to Salt Lake at about 1 AM-ish. What sucks is that I barely got any sleep the rest of the night. Then the next day was uneventful, except that I saw Tangled for the 3rd time :D Love that movie, by the way. Then on Saturday, I finally got to fly home :D It was so good to be home :D

The next two weeks were spent in Texas, and they went by far too fast for my liking. But they were wonderful, nonetheless. Being there even made me think about looking into going to school at TWU in the future instead of up here in the frozen tundra of Rexburg, Idaho. They have the program I want and it would save me some money since I would be living at home. But we'll see. I think that one of the best parts of being at home for two weeks is that I found out that a friend of mine from High School got baptized this last week. I got to see him get confirmed on the following sunday. It was so amazing to see him turn his life around like that. I am just so proud and impressed by him.

Anyways! So now I am back here in -6 degree Rexburg, enjoying the short time I have with a car and with my sister (Can I just say thank goodness for 4-wheel drive?). I found out last night that I not only have to audition for choir today, I also have to audition to be in my voice lessons class. And I can't just sing a hymn for that one, it has to be an arrangement or something. So, I'm going to sing Come thou fount of every blessing. It's a gorgeous song. And it's the arrangement used in the Reflections of Christ slide show by Mark Mabry, if you feel like listening to it. It's on youtube, just so you know :)

And then, on top of auditioning for two things today, I also have to pick up my textbooks, print off the music for my auditions, and then I have a job interview at 6 tonight. This is gonna be a busy day. So I better go get started! Wish my luck!
