Start of Something New (not to be confused with High School Musical...)

Hello again. My dear friend Mandy has been hounding me about writing another post, so here it is. I have been meaning to write for a while and ideas and experience pop into my head from time to time concerning what I could write about. But then life goes on, and I forget. My posts might be kind of long, but hey it's my blog and I can do what I want :) It's just like a journal and I am going to write what I feel like writing.
I have been soooo busy these past couple of weeks. Fall semester at the University of Brigham Young started a few weeks ago, and man can I just say how hard it has been? I thought that it wasn't going to be that hard for me because I went summer term and got a head start. Boy, was I completely wrong. All of my classes require me to do a heavy load of reading every night, so I sure have to try not to get behind (not saying that I have just forgo-ed reading some days.)
Even though college is hard, I love it. Meeting new people, having more freedom (kind of...I still live at home sadly), only having a few hours of class everyday and not starting until TEN is glorious. The classes are great. The teachers and people are great (for the most part.) As I mentioned before, I am living at home for now. It has its pros and cons. I am saving a bunch of money, which is the reason that I am at home. It was sad to see friends move to campus when I was stuck at home. I felt like I was missing out on the "freshman experience." There are still some times where I feel like that, but for the most part, I have become okay with it. Who knows if I would even be able to do it?! I'm a freaking momma's girl! and daddy's girl. I will be on campus for a day, and I still call my mom to talk to her about funny things that I witnessed that day, or the hot boy that said hi to me or just smiled at me that I just got way too excited about. ;)
Overall, I have had a really fun couple of weeks. The other day, I got my pictures taken. I only have a few right now that I can post. I will post the rest when I get them. It was actually a blast! Brenda Durrant is the photographer who took them and she is amazing! If you ever need pictures taken, I totally recommend her! She just makes you feel so at ease and she takes great pictures for a wonderful price too! Well, I think I have rambled enough! Hopefully I will remember to write more often, so then the posts won't be as long!
