It has been an interesting last couple of months. I have 20 days of school left! I have taken over a PR campaign for one of my classes, which I was trying to avoid taking charge of. But long story short the group leader before me had a bit of a break down and didn't do much right so I have two weeks to put together an extensive PR plan with the help of my team members; right now it is at 12 pages and requires a ton of work and rewriting and research. I am working with the AAF which is a great learning experience. I am ridiculously busy in general and seem to be in charge of major group projects (as usual) I am working on a few different campaigns right now, and loving it. I work very well in high stress situations. And I love being busy.

I am starting a CHARITY!!!! I am so excited. The inspiration actually came from a class and although the idea and plan is still new it is certainly something that I have fallen in love with very quickly.  The charity is for mentally handicapped children, and the brainstorms and plans are phenomenal, I am so pumped about this. And thankfully so are the other five people that I am working with on this. We are planing to have our first event and be official (legally) by the end of the semester so about three weeks? We have a lot of work to do; but I know we can do it!

My roommates are utterly and completely amazing. Life is so great right now, I hope that it contuines to do so and progress. Oh I went home with my roommate Lisa. I had never been on a farm before so she took me to hers. Here are some pictures. (I tend not to put pictures on facebook unless I am asked for another person's benefit; lately it has been friends and roommates)

Oh Drew of course,
Well, we are doing well and having lots of fun. We are just taking things slow right now, which I am grateful for. I don't think I will be very fond of the seven week break coming up though when we are apart more; we are pretty much together almost all the time at this point.

 Face painting at a summer solstice event, I made him into an indian. He painted a purple heart on me; which wouldn't come off for a few days.

 Guitars unplugged with Drew, my roommates and my extra roommates of course.

Drew caught a towel that Caitlin threw into the crowd. Strangely enough a couple guys tired tackling him for in and fell over in the process. I guess he is a bigger guy than I thought.

School gets out in a month! I am so excited. I am so excited not to be carrying so many groups and people! I will try to not have another repeat of this next semester.

June 3rd 2011

Just a quick update. Life is BUSY! Somehow I have managed to carry three or four semester long group projects. Right now I am doing research for BYU-I, running a PR campaign, working on a adverting campaign, working on business stuff, presentations galore, I wrote a radio script yesterday that will air  soon, church callings, ... well you get the picture life is hectic. I am pretty much with Drew and my roommates 24/7. But life is great. Keep me updated on your lives.

Sooo life.....

So I recently got called as FHE mom, and today I got called as a gospel doctrine teacher as well. God really wants me to good at public speaking and teaching, my entire semester is presentation based; I hope to get good at this FAST! It's good to have God on my side on this one, I am super nervous but so excited to start. I hope this helps me and I learn a lot! God really wants me to be better at public speaking.

Oh and Drew! Drew, drew, drew.... is amazing. Back story on this one, I dated him before his mission; well now he is back. He hasn't been back for long but I guess it was bound to happen. He is the ... yeah hes just amazing. I'm flustered. Its great, so yeah ... hmmm I'm even speechless. Well we have been seeing each other again since the beginning of the semester every day or at least every other day; and we finally made it official a little while ago. So yeah, this should go well.

And I love my roommates still, life is great.

April 24th 2011

Frist off today is Easter! Which is great in its own. And my roommates are AMAZING! I have been so so blessed this semester. I am glad I chose to room with Kari and Wesley and just as glad that my other roommates are equally amazing. I just got a roommate yesterday, a room roommate that is. I'm glad that I don't have to have this huge room to myself anymore, but she does have some complications; she got in a ATV accident on Saturday and now has a broken back and a brace to go with it. I hope that moving here will make things a lot easier for her. I am dating some amazing men at the time, so I am hoping that I will find the right one out of this group and be able to keep him.  Classes aren't to bad, I'm only taking 16 credits and it feels so much easier than my semester in the fall. Well, a couple of my roommates just made me breakfast so I better go eat the delicious food waiting for me.

Back in Rexburg Spring 2011

I arrived in Rexburg yesterday and finished unpacking quite quickly. So far my roommate Kari and I are the only ones in my apartment so we are getting to know each other better than before; its quite a lot of fun.  So the last day has been Kari and I and some of my closest friends stoping by. I am have been so excited to see my close friends up here. They are all so amazing, I am so lucky in the choices I have made in the friend department. The people close to me are nothing short of utterly phenomenal. I am so blessed by the people I surround myself with.  I love my friends so much despite where their locations may be. I am also looking forward to meeting so many more wonderful people through out the course of this semester.

I am REALLY hoping that I actually do have a roommate and don't have my room all to myself, but I guess I will have to wait and see; or make a phone call.

I am still currently enrolled in 18 credits drooping below that for me is proving to be easier said than done, I think at this point I really do have trouble not being an over achiever in most areas let alone this one. Even though I am taking all difficult upper level classes I am finding it hard to actually click the button to drop below that amount of credits at this point.  Hopefully I can bring myself to click that button so I do not manage to kill myself this semester. Taking all  seven of my Comm 100 level classes last semester was enough. And as far as books go I was grateful to see that I spent a little over 200, its the first time in a long time I've spent under 500 for a seamster on books.

It also looks like this semester that I will be expanding my learning beyond just what my classes entail and what my major teaches, I plan to work and learn flash scripting,  photography principles, more on adobe programs, and of course educating myself as well by reading a good book every now and then and expanding my knowledge. Guess, I have to overachieve and learn in access in one way or another.

I find it interesting what opportunities really come my way. On one of my flights getting me to Salt Lake I had a conversation with a man sitting next to me for over an hour and a half (social butterfly as always).   But long story short he works for a record label in New York and wanted to give me a very nice inside advantage for an internship there and also offered his hookups with PR or marketing people that he has in the future. So I will be giving him a shot out when applying for internships.

I am looking forward to classes starting on Tuesday. But as far as figuring out my dating life, not looking forward to figuring that so far; classes haven't even started and its already confusing.

My Mother is running the Boston marathon that is coming up in the next couple days as well so be sure to wish her luck in thought for me.

Car Sold

Well, my car was having problems and overall it was a lot more to fix than it was worth. To fix it was at least 3 or 4k. So I made the choice to sell it which to my luck actually worked. Sadly I wasn't able to see it for much but it was decent for the condition that the car was in. It is now on its way to Mexico. I am quite sad that I no longer have a car, but it was in a condition where I should not drive it back to school. Hopefully I will be able to buy a new car in the future I certainly miss having a car now.

You know when you said only when heck frezees over....

Well it froze over. Well to southern Arizona. Dang climate change. On the plus side I got great pictures of Christian and Chandler.
