New Beginnings!

So wow.... my life has done like a complete 180 in the past few months... some of the changes are good and some ehhh not so good. so this is just going to be a random update about whats new


I have almost finished my first semester at the U.... I am loving it up here! SUU just seemed like an extension of high school... and im glad i finally got away. my major is very small compared to elementary ed at SUU and i have met some fantastic people within it. even tho i love my program it still feels like graduation is forever away! every time i go into an elementary school it just reminds me of how much i want to be in there actually teaching and working with the children...i know that i have to do good in school to get there but another two years just seems like forever! oh well im sure ill enjoy it and everyone says that you shouldnt wish to be done!

One thing that has been quite the challenge is living all the way in West Jordan when the U is in SLC. it is about 40 minutes by train and so it takes up a ton of my day just gettin there. its not like Suu where if i forgot something i could just run home.. and every time i miss the train i end up driving which eats up a ton of money. its just TOO hard to live here and go to school there. so im really working on getting my finances in order so that i can move out. me and alexis chica-wang nay have plans to move out so hopefully if everythin goes right that will happen!

Another big change is that im no longer dating nick. i read (on facebook haha) that if you change your relationship status more than twice a year you probably aren't ready to be in a relationship (or something like that) I think that is completely true... relationships arent about drama... and if you have one so filled with drama that you can no longer see the good in it.. what's the point? we broke up about 2 months ago... ive had some very hard times.. and some times where i feel happy... like my old self. but for the most part ive just been calm. the kind of calm that comes from making a decision that you can live with and being happy about it. I think the hardest part is losing the friendship. after dating someone for almost four years a big part of you is shared with them... and to have it gone is really hard. sometimes i just see a picture of him or something that he gave me and i start to feel really sad...  but then i realize that we werent happy... and now we both have a chance to be the smiling, laughing people we were three and a half years ago. 

moving back has almost seemed too natural. i not only moved back to the neighborhood that i was from, but i moved back to being with my family.. and hanging out with people i haven't been able to see in a very long time. im so glad to be back and able to see Alexis Nay! She had been my best friend since 6th grade and it almost feels like we picked up right where we left off. I think that my six years in Cedar City really changed me and im really grateful for some of that.. but there are just some things that I really missed from here and she is definitely one of them. along with all my other old friends from here!


right now im feeling very positive about my future! i love my school.... i love my family... my future career and all of the people surrounding me!!

well my friends this has been another rambling by me
hopefully there will be more good things to come :)
