It's been a little over a month since my last post. A lot has happened in this last month. Where to start? That is the real question.1. I was blessed with an amazing semester. Finals are in just a week and I will have officially survived my first college semester. I think that that is a huge accomplishment. I am still working in the health science field. Classes are hard, but I was able to maintain.
2. There is this app, Tinder; notorious for being a sexual hook up app. However, since I go to BYU-I, it is used for one thing, and one thing only, to get dates. I had never heard of it until I came here. Hearing my roommate's cousin talking about it, I decided to download it. I did, and within the first day of getting one, I got a match and a date was set up. Fortunately, it was my first official date. (being asked by a guy) Unfortunately, it was an awkward date. I was almost kissed, and probably almost proposed to. AWKWARD!
3. Four days later, I went on another date. I had asked this kid. We has also met on Tinder, but he seemed different than the previous dude. However, I was still skeptical about it. I decided that this time, I wouldn't go alone. I was bringing two friends with me. I got one of them a blind date. (my home teacher (: ) I couldn't find another guy for my other friend to save my life. Finally, the day of the date, I asked the kid I was going with if he knew anyone. He did and we ended up being successful for the date. We did skittles bowling and then just made hot chocolate at my apartment. So much fun!4. My best friend was able to come up here for a couple days. I got to show her how much better BYU-I is than USU. I think (hopefully) she will be transferring here. The spirit here is amazing. My sister was also able to come stay with me and that was definitely the highlight of my semester.
5. My friend, Kaitlyn, texted me yesterday, around 12:30. "I feel like I might go crazy if I just sit in my apartment all day. Got any ideas of things we could do?" I didn't know of anything, but when I got to her apartment, she said, "We are going to Jackson Hole!" I had never been there, but within 30 minutes, we were on the road. It is only about 90 minutes from here, so it wasn't too bad. We had her roommate with us and it was such a blast. Now, since we are poor college students, we didn't buy much. We just window shopped, which is probably the best thing ever.6. I am going on a mission. I am so excited to serve the Lord. I wish I was already out there. My papers are started and are being continued everyday.
Adventure is out there, you just have to be willing to find it!
