I LOVE COLLEGE.

So not to brag or anything, but I'm pretty sure I have the best roommate ever. Not even joking, Lauren Cottle is so great. Sometimes she forgets to make her bed, but I forgive her, because, you know, I am not the cleanest person... Having a roommate has forced me to stay organized and go to bed on time. It's really nice. She even puts up with my weirdness too. Sometimes I just start singing and quoting the greatest youtube video of all time, I am your grandma. 

Watch it. Love it. Share it.

So I love college for many reasons.
(in no particular order...)

1: The food. Oh gosh is it good! I didn't know food could be so good till I came here. I usually skip breakfast or just have some granola or something that I keep in my room. For lunch I usually eat in the CougarEat, it's full of restaurants and stuff. Usually I get the Kailua Pork from Teriyaki Stix. It is SO GOOD. Another favorite is the BBQ Chicken wrap from the salad and wrap place. I have yet to eat at taco bell. For dinner I usually go to the Cannon Center, the cafeteria for the dorms. It is so good. They always have really yummy desserts and they almost always have poppyseed dressing for my salad. Life is good.

2: My roommate, who I already mentioned, its seriously amazing.

3: My RA is pretty awesome. Her name is Emma. She is so fun and nice and caring.

4: All the handsome men here. Need I say more? I've been on a few dates with some hotties.

5: Classes. While they are always overwhelming, I love school. My favorite class is my Manufacturing Engineering class. We have lecture monday and wednesday and my lab is on tuesdays. Last week in lab we were given  a single piece of paper and 30 minutes to construct some type of structure that would hold up some hymnals 4 inches off of the table. My group was pretty awesome, we were able to stack 25 hymn books. One group got to 39 or something, but I think we did pretty well.

6: Football games! WOOOO. Ra ra ra ra ra, ra ra ra ra ra, ra ra ra ra ra, GO COUGARS!

 7: The fun stuff to do here. Last weekend we went and broke a world record. No big deal right? It was awesome. It was a HUGE dodgeball game. SO MUCH FUN.

8: Church. So fun. I absolutely love my ward. I am FHE Mom so I get to teach tonight. We are going to go to Kiwanis Park and have a picnic. It's gonna be great. Here is a picture of my FHE group, well most of them anyways.

So obviously I'm having a seriously good time. But I also miss my family. My brother Jon gets home from his mission in Brazil in 6 weeks! I can't wait to see him :) It's been fun having my twin Remington out here. Today he slid down a pole thing that helps old people walk down/up stairs and he ripped his pants. One of the most hilarious things I've seen.

Goodbye New York, Hello Utah!

So I decided I should probably start a blog since I'm all grown up and moving to college TOMORROW.  I'm going to Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. I am either majoring in mechanical engineering or manufacturing engineering technology. I am SO excited. But I am also SO sad and SO nervous. I've met my roommate on facebook. Her name is Lauren, and she seems super fun and sweet. I am really excited to meet her. I am staying in Taylor Hall at Helaman Halls. The dorm is probably itty bitty and I have 6 bags full of stuff and then some. It's crazy all the stuff I have accumulated over the years. I am so sad to be leaving Bloomfield and all of my friends. I will really miss my family and other people I love here. I am really excited to start living on my own and meeting new people and going on lots of dates with some cute mormon guys :) On the way to Utah we are probably going to stop in Boystown, Nebraska to visit my aunt and uncle and cousins and in Granby, Colorado to visit the Paige family. We are also going to go to Idaho to visit our cousins the Alvarezs' and the Ganoes. I'm really excited to see all of them :)
