One year down...

My first year in the tundra has been pretty darn great! I have had a lot of fun. I have been really cold! I have put together a top ten list of the things that I have learned in the frozen tundra.

1. I LOVE BYU-Idaho!!!So

I don't think I can say that enough! I love BYU-Idaho! I love the teachers! I love the students! I love the atmosphere! I love the learning! I love it!

2. I'm so excited to be a teacher!

I think going right along with loving BYU-Idaho is the fact that I'm so excited to be a teacher. I think being in school, and actually learning the techniques of being a teacher really has shown me that I want to be a teacher! I'm just so excited to actually be in a school, and teach.

3. I'm not a huge fan of Rexburg.

So Rexburg... haha. I think we have a love hate relationship. It's cute. It's small. It's cold. It's Rexburg. Well I think it's more of a my school of choice is there so I think I'll stand you because I love the school.

4. Roommates are key!

Roommates! Another one of those things that is a love hate thing you know. You love them. You hate them. Then you love them again. I think I have had everything this year when it came to roommates. I have had the quite the social the geeky the awesome the fun the not so fun. The one thing that I have noticed is they just haven't been the like the roommates in Provo. I miss those girls!

5. The Library is Key

HAHA me the library sometimes I spend way too much time there and sometimes not enough. That is what I learned that the library is really a fun place. I just need to have the motivation to get there.

6. Working full time going to full time not such a good idea.

When I moved to Rexburg I had a great job... but that didn't last long. Let me tell you why full time work and full time school not a good idea. It was a great job, but this is the first time in 3 years I have not worked full time and I love it!

7. You only live once.

I think I have always know this, but I'm living it now. I had a friend tell me the other day that she loves how I just go for it. I decided this year to just go work for Disney. I decided to just quit my job. I decided to just leave Provo and go to school in the frozen tundra. You only live once, so why not just do you want at least you will be happy.

8. The best thing in the world is progressing.

So the big thing that brought me to the frozen tundra was progression. I just felt like I wasn't progressing in life. I decided to pray about it, and guess what I'm progressing now. Probably not as much as I want to, but I have goals to help with that. I love moving forward! I don't know everything that is on the path, but I do know that I'm going on the path and I'm moving forward. I love that!

9. Rexburg pedestrians are not the brightest

enough said. I hit one the first day of fall semester. I got frustrated with them on daily. They just aren't the brightest.

10. The difference between want and need.

I think for a long I have really wanted certain things, so I thought of them as a need. Now I think that has changed. I think about the stuff I thought I needed, but I'm good. My Dad kept asking me what I want, and I kept say I don't need anything. I'm good. I think my perspective has changed. I don't need what I want anymore.

Well there is my list. One year down, and I'm super excited for the next year. I'll hopefully keep you a little more updated, because next year will be a lot more fun.

Drum Roll Please.... DISNEY

So as some of you may know I'm going to be working at Walt Disney World, but some of you have no idea how this came about. Well let me tell you how all this came about. It was the beginning of the fall semester, and like most college students I was getting burnt out. I'd been in Rexburg for what it felt like forever, and decide that I can either just plow through school or do something else. As this idea came into my head I also had the idea man I really want to go to Disney Land again. hmmm Disney thats interesting. Wouldn't it be cool if I could just live at Disney Land forever. THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!! Then I though well why not. I could work there. Yeah why not. So I turned to my best friend... google. I soon found out that they have this college program thing. I looked into it even more, and talked to some people. After thinking about it for I deiced that I needed to be responsible and just plow through school. After a few week of this responsible think I thought well why not I'm just going to try whats the worst that could happen. WELL I GOT IN!!!! Screw winter semester it's too cold in Rexburg I'm going to DISNEY WORLD!!!!!! So that is how this all happened!

Wait I know what will I be doing there. OK get this I get to run one the rides! So cool right! Let see I don't think there are any other lingering question, but if there is just let me know. I'm super excited as you can tell by this awesome video!

Time, Time, Time

So it is almost time for a lot of things right now... such as:

The end of the Semester

Going to Utah

Going HOME!!!!

Christmas

New Years

Working at Disney World

Going to Florida

Going on my longest plane ride.

hmmm I think thats it.

Since all these changes are coming about I thought that it might be a good time to blog, and maybe be constant with blogging. (not making any promises)

Ok so first I love BYU- Idaho! I have absolutely loved my first year back in school. I'm so excited to come back and finish my degree! I know when I left Provo I was not too excited about Rexburg, but it's really not that bad. It kind of grows on you. I knew when I came here that this was the place for me and it still is. I have learned a lot! (more to come on that)

With how happy I'm here I'm even happier to be leaving. I'm very happy because on my way home I'm going to make a stop in UTAH the land that I love! I never really thought about how much I loved living in Provo until I left. I miss my old roommates. I miss Karianne! I miss all the things to do! I miss some of my old co-workers! I just miss Utah! That being said I'm so excited to go down there for a little while.

HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME! HOME!

HOME!HOME!HOME!HOME!HOME!HOME!HOME!HOME! enough said.

I'm excited for Christmas.

I'm excited for my traditional Irish New Years!

Ok Disney! I'm going to be working at Disney. (more to come later)

Because of Disney Florida and the longest plane ride.
