Since I'll be going to school in the summer (April until July) I am gonna get all my fun trips in as fast as I can. Tomorrow Grandma, Gradnpa and I are driving to St. George to visit Ellen and family. I'm flying to Albuquerque next Friday, and on Saturday my freinds and I are spending the day at white sands. Then my family and I are driving back up here, then on to school.
So 2 weeks until........ BYU-Idaho!
I'm moving in April 15, classes start the 19th.
Right now, my major is "Graphic Design." My schedule is all lined up and I'm super happy with it!
The Rexburg temple is beautiful- its a 2 minute walk from my dorm.
I took a trip up a few weekends ago with my freind and her parents- heres what I picked up.
- You can bike accross the entire town of rexburg in about 15 minutes, campus in 2
- Walmart is the party place, K-Mart if you really wanna get crazy
- 56% men, 44% women
- Off-campus housing means crossing the street (campus is its own block)
- A new auditorium seating 15,000 people was finished last semester
- Every single house in town was built before 1965
I am scared to death.

I don't blame you for being scared Summer. You're about to start a whole new chapter of your life - all by yourself (ie, no mom and dad right there with you) and in a new place. But, I hope you know we are all excited for you and cheering you on and we all know you're gonna do great. You'll make the best friends of your life during the next few years. Take advantage of all the great opportunities college has to offer and HAVE FUN! Can't wait to hear how you like it!
You are going to LOVE. IT. So far, the very best year of my life has been my freshman year of college. I rarely talk to people from high school but I regularly talk to my friends that I made that first summer in the dorms. Literally, the people I met the first day I was there are still my best friends. It's going to be amazing!! Of course it's scary at first (when my mom and dad drove away after dropping me off at my dorm I cried for at least an hour) but then all of a sudden you realize you're free. You are whoever you want to be, make whatever choices you want, sleep in if you want, be an awesome student, stay up 'til 3 eating pizza outside...it's going to be amazing! I can't wait for it to start for you. Good luck!!!
It's PARTY time! Be scared but be fun scared.
