I survived finals!!! Not only did I survive but I also succeeded. None of the grades dropped and one went up a little bit. That means that I end with 3 A's and 2 A-'s. 3.875 GPA. I love it. Right after finals got over with, the apartment was cleaned out and everybody started leaving their separate ways to go home. It was a very surreal time. I finally left and began what is going to be my life for the next four months. Yep, I don't go back until April. So now I work. That's basically all I do. It is a big change to go from a place that has all of your friends and something to do every night to a place where nothing is really happening. That is kinda my fault because I don't really want to do much. What I really want is to be with my friends again. I miss them all so much but I am glad that they are all happy and with their families. Hey, and I get to be with my family too. That's a good thing. We had a lot of fun over Christmas and it was great...

This past week has been something else, I'll tell you what. But in the end it has ended up being a good week, although the end result of this week will not be entirely realized until the end of this next week. The reason being that this past week was dead week and this coming week is finals week, one of the most dreaded weeks in the life of a college student. To say that I have studied for these finals more than any other finals I've ever taken is an understatement. For some reason, it has come more easy to study this semester than at any other time in my life. This week, however, I discovered the lost land of the library, with some help of good friends of course. What a great place to study. I could focus but still have my friends around me, have mini conversations but still be very productive, it felt pretty dang good. This week however, is going to be the make or break week. Monday: Middle East, Tuesday: Psychology, Wednesday: Math, Thursday:Science. each test havi...

It has been a couple of weeks since I have posted and what an eventful few weeks it has been. My life is definitely changing but that is a good thing. Within the past few weeks, I got to return to my home to see my family over Thanksgiving. I love my family, they mean the world to me and I am thankful for all of the support that they give me. While at home, I was able to learn a few things about my self from my family, my friends (via text), and through the scriptures. the thanksgiving holiday really helped me remember those things that I am taking for granted and what I need to do to ensure that I don't do that again. Upon reuniting with all of my friends back at school, I was overcome with gratitude for all of the things that they have done for me. That lasted for a few days and along with a couple of visits to the temple, I became aware of many blessings that God has given me. My spirits are high. My spirituality is high and I know that it is because the Lord cares abou...
