BYU/Utah

Well, despite being totally blown out by Utah, the game was actually kinda fun...at the beginning. Here's a nice little pic of me and Nathan:

Quick Update

So today is Sunday (9/18) and to get over the devastating, demoralizing loss to Utah, I spent the day making this video to get my mind on things far more important than football...

The Holy War

It is nigh. I can feel it in the air. The statues are all wrapped in saran wrap. It's RIVALRY WEEK!!
Oh man, oh man oh man...I'm psyched. I just got done with class and now all I have to do is wait (well, I'm also going to play dodgeball today and we have our first intramural game is tomorrow, but you get the idea.). In the last two days, I've had two dreams about the game. First, me and Nathan were in the stadium watching. We were driving the ball really well when all of a sudden I decided that I needed to run back and get my camera (that's how I knew it was a dream: I would never do that in real life.).  On the way back to the dorm, the stadium erupted in applause and I got all depressed knowing I had missed us score.
Second dream. This one wasn't as good, in fact, it got me kinda worried. For some reason, the game was in Salt Lake (which makes me think that it was just a flashback). Ya know how dreams seem normal when we're in them but when we wake up we realize they were actually strange? (Leonardo Di Caprio). Well, me and Nathan were walking around looking for a place to watch. Then later, we actually got beat on pretty bad so we walked around campus all depressed. After feeling depressed for a while, I actually woke up. Figuring out that it was all just a dream (or nightmare, really), I got really happy and hopeful again. Anyway, I just thought I'd share that with you. I'm gonna be taking a ton of pictures in the next few days so look forward to those. Until next time, I'm gonna go get something out of one of the ten vending machines!

Thoughts So Far

Well, here I am. It's quarter to 10 on a Monday morning, and I'm waiting to go into my music class. I thought it would be a good idea to take this time to blog.

Things I love about college:
-Girls: There are soooo many gorgeous girls here, I'm finding it hard to focus.
-Guys: There are sooo many awesome guys here and everyone's really friendly.
-Food: The food is actually really good, and I can eat as much as I want which is definitely a plus.
-Campus: The campus is absolutely beautiful. Flowers, statues, trees, grass (that I can actually lie down in because there aren't fireants here), buildings, and of course, the mountains in the background, make BYU the most beautiful campus I have ever seen.
-Professors: almost all of my professors are really great and interest, but...not all of them. Sam (my writing prof.) is definitely my favorite so far.

Things that I find not so cool about college (I don't hate anything, really):
-Class: while my classes aren't overly difficult, sometimes they get in the way of my partying. Which is no good.
-Being on my own: Now I know what you're thinking: "What?! How could you not like being on your own?" Don't get me wrong, I love being able to do what I want, when I want. It's just so hard to be disciplined and make myself do homework and stuff when there's no one telling me what to do.
-Walking: I walk. Everywhere. It kinda sucks, especially when I have a class on the outskirts of campus.

All in all, BYU is pretty much the greatest thing ever and I can't see myself going to any other university.

One last thing, I GOT A CALLING YESTERDAY. That's right...in addition to being a full-time student and Zoobie, I also have to be a Sunday School teacher. I'm not too worried though...I think I'll be all right. Hopefully.

Well, class is about to start so I'm gonna go ahead and sign out for now. Until next time, I bid thee farewell.

Huzzah!!

Not that I want to jinx anything, but my blog has started working again!! YES! That's good because I have a TON of stuff to talk about. ALREADY. It's been like 2 weeks!! Anyway, I am really enjoying my classes so far. They're not easy, but I have really awesome professors and I definitely won't be falling asleep in class anytime soon. In case anyone is wondering, I'm taking Music 101, Freshman Writing, Geography, Intro to Psychology, and Book of Mormon. It's a lot of work, but at least it's enjoyable. Last Saturday (9/3/11), BYU played its first football game. 100+ students crammed themselves into the Jimmer Hall lobby, and it was SOOOOO much fun. Just wait until the home games!!

Watch it...it's awesome.

Anyway, I'm supposed to be studying right now. Now that my blog is working again I'll definitely be posting frequently.

I Love College.
