I Survived!

I made it through one of the longest weeks of my life. Yay! My brain hurts and I am soooo tired but it was worth it! Monday I took my book of mormon test and on Tuesday I work. Wednesday I worked again and had a study group for Pdbio. That was really helpful. I definitely believe study groups are important in college. Thursday I got up at 5 and went to the temple with my roommates. That was very refreshing and some much needed uplifting. When we got back from the temple Brooke and I made breakfast. It was freaking good!

delicious french toast, eggs, hash browns and juice!

Thurdsay was a long day, seeing as how it started at 5 and I only had 4 hours of sleep. woops. haha I worked some more and then took my Church history test. That night I went to a humanities review. (Are you seeing my brain frying yet?) Then I studied for my german final and got to bed at 1. Friday started bright and early again, I was at a review for Pdbio at 7. It was super helpful though, so I am way glad that I went. I was in the MARB for 5 hours before it was time for lunch. ONLY lunch time! Oh but the day wasnt over yet. I had a truck training meeting for work. After watching 5 terribly boring safety movies I got to go out and drive our truck through cones to pass the test. The truck is bright blue and huge! well its not that big and actually just felt like I was driving paula and eriks truck again. It was pretty fun, and I passed so thats good. I'll take a picture of it some time so you guys can see. Oh ya, my supervisor that took me too the driving test also took me to wendy's on our way back to work- through the drive through. That was crazy! I studied for a while that night and then watched The Social Network. I thought it was really interesting.

Saturday was probably the evil of all evils. I got up early once again, headed to the library to study pdbio and then took my test. It went ok, there were a lot of short answer questions so we'll have to see... After my test I went into work, trying to get some rooms done so I don't have to worry about that so much this week. Karl was the the one working Crew Chief so that was fun, I got to thank him again and just talk about the job. After two hours of work and then learning that they were no longer admitting people into the basketball game I went home. Probably a good thing though cause I did laundry and took my online german test and two pdbio quizzes before going to the Brickoven with my roomies. Saturday night, while everyone was at a stake dance, I studied my heart out on Humanities.

At Brickoven. This was a very funny night... We had some weird waiters I'll

have to tell you about

Sunday was refreshing, a nice day off. My roommate Hannah made us dinner, and this was actually the first time we had all eaten together-not at a restaurant. It was really good. After dinner we did something my roommate Brooke had talked about in her relief society lesson. We each got a paper and passed it around, each taking a turn to write something we liked/appreciated/noticed about each other. It was really amazing. I love my roommates and am glad that we can all be such good friends. We just talked the night away. Seriously.... 2:30...

haha

Well sorry if that sounded like one boring travel log or planner or something, but that is seriously how I have felt. Its just been one thing right to the next all week, but I am happy to say that I have now completed my Humanities exam and only have one essay let! Then my first of many midterm weeks will be complete!

Full of Randomness

So another week is gone. I'm kind of glad, cause it was so full and busy, but I'm afraid this week may be even worse... tests.... Well this week was full of many random activities. For starters I actually worked, going around to different classrooms checking equipment. All I have to say is that I am glad I have and Ipod and that I already hate the Talmage building. I swear I will never take a class in there, cause I could just feel the "I don't understand this/I am failing vibes" in that whole building. (yes, it is the math and stats building. yuck.) haha but anyways, besides work work I did a bunch of homework, such as writing 3 humanities essays in 3 days. Go me!

On Wednesday night I watched Avatar. Yes that loooooong 3 hour movie. oh but wait, I watched it in GERMAN. Wow. My brain was a little tired after that. I caught a few words here and there, which made me happy, but mostly I just watched :)

Thursday night I had a meeting with everyone going to Vienna. We had yummy food and then got down to business. We were able to talk about important information like signing up for classes, flights, money, textbooks, since the program is official now. It was nice to be with everyone that will actually be going. We went around the room and all introduced ourselves and said what our dreams for Vienna were. I thought that was good to hear why everyone wants to experience this place. They are all really nice, and I think I will be able to get along with everyone quite well. After the meeting I came back home and we had an ice cream and cake party for my roommate Stefany's Birthday.

These are kids in the ward who came over

Then on Friday night a bunch of us in the ward went to Texas Roadhouse for Stefany. (the party the night before had been a surprise, and this was something stef had planned before) I had never been to texas roadhouse but it turned out to be really good. When we got back our Hall had a paJAM-a pj party with music. People in my ward are insanely talented, so someone planned a night for us to just sit around and listen to people sing, play guitar and piano. It was really fun.

Saturday I had a slight change of plans when I went to the Mcdonald building to work and found it closed. I guess they forgot to tell me something during training.... So i wasn't able to work, but it was kind of good cause I just went to the library instead and got tons done. I also had a soccer game which I scored in! Well the girl on the other team actually kicked it in but i still counted as 2 points! (good old byu rules)

Busy week ahead, so lets hope I can make time to study and do well on my 3 test!
