ONLY 12 MORE DAYS UNTIL I GO HERE

yes that is right... this would be a picture of the happiest place on earth. in preperation i have been studying this

lets face it. its probably the worst ride at disneyland but its kinda like a sin not to go on it when you are there. and i am no sinner!
lastly, i will be eating about 1.3 million of these

maybe more...
So disneyland i will be there soon but first i just have to make it through
a big nasty english ppr
a semi nasty english ppr
a math test that will leave you saying "please just kill me now"
a super ridiculously long chem test
and
2 chem lab write ups
so disneyland i will be there as long as school doesnt kill me first!

just a second to brag...

I have the best home teachers to ever grace this planet...

enough said

now thats what i call a good day :)

I have been planning on finally declaring that I wanted to be a food science major for a really long time (about a year) but I just kept putting it off. I mean who could ever believe that I could get into the program. Every time I walked past the life science office I was reminded that I hadn't gone in there and make an appointment with the academic counselor so that I could finally get the information to apply to the program. One day last week I was feeling particularly bold (probably due to the fact that the weather was finally broke into the 40's and I almost wore flip flops... almost) and I walked in and made an appointment, but of course they were completely full until the next week on Friday! I think they were trying to torture me, and it was working! So Friday FINALLY rolled around and I walked into my appointment. (I felt like I was at the dentist of doctors office two places of which i detest) After what seemed like an eternity I finally got called into the counselors office. I sat in silence as the counselor looked through my grades and other academic stuff (the whole time all I could think was breathe in, breathe out, don't panic, breathe in, breathe out...) Finally she told me that I had been officially accepted into the program!! Just like that! I was finally in the program! no messy forms, no horribly long interviews that I had to stress about I am in the program!! I even got a free pen that says the BYU College of Life Sciences on it! Now thats what i call a good day!!!!!

p.s. Food Science doesn't equal cooking

Every time i tell someone that I am a Food science major (because I am one now :) )I get one of two reactions the first "oh you want to be a dietitian" nope if i wanted to be a dietitian I would get a degree in dietetics. And the second response "oh you want to be a chef" I'm pretty sure that if I wanted to be a chef i would go to culinary school... I don't want to be either I just want to be a Food Scientist!

AG

This past Saturday we had a little Aspen Grove reunion for the summer staff this past summer! We went up to Aspen Grove and partied! SO fun! I forgot how much I am completely in LOVE with that place! It's so beautiful and I made some of the most amazing friends this past summer! I never dreamed in a million years that out of the hundreds of applicant that applied I would get picked! This place has definitely changed my life! Here are a few of my favorite summer memories...
Going to my first ever rodeo! it was amazing!

living here! it's so beautiful! (minus the bugs haha)
getting to hold little kids all the time

getting rescued by firemen!

finding random pictures of these two on my phone all the time haha


celebrating christmas not once but twice in one year! oh yeah!

late night GT
being with all the other amazing ag workers!

doing things like paint balling, rock climbing, and repelling!

Last summer was SO much fun and I can't wait until next summer! I submitted my application yesterday and hopefully I will be going back this upcoming summer again!

here are a few pictures of the reunion this past weekend (ps i totally stole these pictures off kimbers blog because i didn't bring my camera! thanks kimber!)


Casey, Kimber, and I cross country skiing!

new job

So, i just started a new job working at the BYU creamery! So far i love it! i love that we work and set teams so im always working with the same people and they are amazing! however, starting a new job is always interesting... trying to get the hang of a fast paced job when everyone else knows what they are doing besides you can be pretty crazy! let's just say i didn't make in through the week without making a few little mistakes... ok ALOT of mistakes! haha some worse then others but of course this post would be boring with out a few good stories so here goes...
the first day i got there they forgot to get me my uniform for me (we wear polos) so they had to make do with the ones that just got back from dry cleaning which consisted of an xxs or an xl. lovely... so my whole first shift of work i had was swimming in an xl large t shirt! haha
Then, on saturday, the ice cream part of the store closes at midnight and then after cleaning up we get to go home. we started cleaning around 11:30 because there were not many people coming in because it was getting late... well around 11:55 right before we were about to close and we had just finished cleaning everything some random person comes in and asks for a shake. now shakes are pretty much the vain of my existence. they are so hard to make and if your not careful you will cut your hand of! not even kidding! so one of my co workers was instructing me on shake making and i pulled out the cup right as he turned on the blade! bad timing! the shield that keeps you from getting milky ice cream all over yourself fell off and i dropped the cup trying to get my hand away from the blade and ice cream went EVERYWHERE within six feet of the machine! i mean EVERYWHERE including all over myself and my hair and my co-worker! yuck! so we had to stay an extra 15 minutes just to clean up that mess! oh the adventures this job is brining me! well sorry for the novel! im sure i will have ALOT more interesting and embarrassing stories to come!
ps a general authority totally came into the creamery yesterday! oh utah you never disappointed!
