January Happenings

So it is January. A new year and a new semester. And I'm finally updating my blog! (Thanks Laura!) I'm still and English major and still working like crazy to get things done. I'm actually taking a screen writing class this semester which I am WAY excited about. I've already got my idea and characters mapped out. All I have to do is write it! That's going to be the rough part, but fun. So I'll keep you updated on how that is coming along as well. I'm also taking Old Testament this semester, which is AWESOME! I absolutely love this class. I have learned so much already, and we've only been in class for a couple of weeks. It's great.

Other big news....I turned 21! Woo Hoo! What did I do? I just a few friends over and we ate food, played games, laughed, w/e, and had a really good time. It was a lot of fun and really nice to have a local, small, get-together thing. It was nice. I was also able to get together with Amanda and Shanda for lunch which was also fun because we all have birthdays in the month of January, and when we were kids, it was so crazy because our birthday parties were ALL in a row. And we haven't been all together for our birthdays in a long time, so it was fun to get together and chat for awhile.

Life in Rexburg is cold....as usual. But fun. I love it here. And I'm REALLY excited about tomorrow because Elder D. Todd Christofferson is coming for devotional tomorrow and I have a ticket! I just feel extremely blessed to be able to have the opportunity to hear him speak, in person. The note taking pressure is on! I have a feeling tomorrow will be a good day.

Well, nothing else too exciting. But I have decided to use this blog as not only an update on my life, but also on the books that I am reading. I have become a read-a-holic! I am constantly reading something! I guess that comes with being an english major. So, I have decided that after I finish a book, I'll blog about it, recommend it, etc. It'll probably start tomorrow.

Class time! Got to run. See ya!
