Week 5!

I can't believe it has already been 5 weeks, but I also can't believe I still have so many more to go!  With it being Memorial Day weekend, it seems like everyone went home to visit family, which is a downside to going to college so far away.  2 more months until I get to go home. 

 I don't really have much to update on this week.  I've just been busy with school and church for the most part.  I did get to go to the Lava Hot Sprigs on Thursday!  They are seriously HOT! But it was fun, and I got sunburnt....no surprise there.  







 I also decided to draw last night, and this is what I ended up with. 


I'm so glad there's no school tomorrow because it gives me a day to catch up on homework and laundry and, well, everything, basically.
  
But I can't forget what memorial day is really about! Thanks to everyone who serves our country and protects our freedom, and especially those who lost their lives protecting ours!  



Have a great week,
XOXO, 
Anna!

Week 4: No Mission For Me?!

Image
Do you ever just feel like jumping off a platform from 40 feet high? Well let me tell you about my last two weeks. As most of you know from Instagram and Facebook, I had a meeting with my bishop 2 weeks ago where I found out I can go on a mission with braces, and so I set up another appointment for the following week to begin my mission papers. I'm pretty sure that was the longest week of my life because I was SO excited.  Well, you can imagine my disappointment when I arrived to my meeting, prepared to start the biggest adventure of my life, and the first thing I heard was "I hate to tell you this, but I talked to the stake president and you can't go until the braces are off." Alright, no big deal, now I just have to re-plan the next two years of my life. Instead of enjoying time at home preparing for my mission, I'll be starting my sophomore year of college. Instead of being in New York or California or Washington or Florida or who knows where for the nex...

Week 7: Bonfires & Best Friends!

Image
It is the 7th week of my second semester and I can't decide if time is flying by or dragging slowly.  I guess it's a little of both.  This week was full of spontaneous adventures but also packed with lazy days! About half way through the week, Nikki got sick and had to go to the doctor.  So for the rest of the week while she was recovering we basically camped out in the living room and had several movie days.  We watched Insidious 2 (we want to go see the third one which just came out), The Uninvited, 13 going on 30, Read it and Weep, The Best of Me, Big Hero 6, The Rugrats Movie, etc.  Like I said, lots of lazy days! On Friday I saw a sign on campus that said "Blood Drive." I headed straight to the location listed on the sign and signed in. I don't know why, but I LOVE giving blood; I think it's fascinating. But maybe spontaneously giving blood isn't such a terrific idea because I hadn't had much (any) water that day, so I was really light he...

BYUI Week 1

Image
So I thought that I would start a blog so that friends and family back home can know what I'm up to out here in Rexburg.  The plan is to update it every Sunday evening. Whether or not that will actually happen is another story...but I'm going to try!  I guess I will start off with the trip out here. My dad and I left home on Monday, and arrived at Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming on Wednesday morning.  We stayed at the Old Faithful Inn that night, which was a very interesting (and cold) hotel.  We saw quite a few geysers, including Old Faithful.  There was also a lot of wildlife like bison and swans etc.   By the way, IT SNOWED. IN SEPTEMBER. THAT' S NOT OKAY. Oh, okay. This was the inside of the Old Faithful Inn. Old Faithful Geyser BISON!! One of the hot springs at Yellowstone Thursday and Friday we moved things in to my apartment and met all of my roommates.  They are all very nice and we get along really we...
