The Open House Nov 8-15

This week has been crazy! Yes... I think I say that at least 90% of the time. Life is just crazy!

Monday my classes went well. I performed in Acting. It was a scene from Glass Menagerie. I was super nervous because my partner and I didn't have a ton of time to rehearse.. but it actually went well. That was our rehearsal performance and our final one is next week. My other classes went well! It rained and was kind of cold all Monday so I ended up just staying down on campus all the way till dinner. FHE was good. We smashed apples and pumpkins, drank cider and watched a church video.

Tuesday was one of those days where so many things build up that you just kind of lose it! I wasn't in my room all day. I left at 7:30am and got back at 1:30am! I am very grateful for amazing friends!

Wednesday was a good day. I spent the day finishing a book for my late class. I sat and read 70 pages but I did finish, and had time to squeeze in a 20 minute nap! My late class felt really long.... but it was funny. I came back and worked on homework and talked to some girls. I have to clear the lobby on Wednesday nights and I went down there and I saw Rylee (another RA) just lying on the couch. We ended up talking till 1:30 in the morning.... It was much needed though!

Thursday felt like Tuesday and Wednesday felt like Friday... no wonder it felt like such a long week! My art history class went well on Thursday. I left thinking, "Man, I just want to be in Europe! Right now!!!!! TAKE ME BACK TO ENGLAND!" I had a very funny and entertaining lunch with Emma and John John. Emma is super sick so she was half out of it and very funny as she told stories to us about her life. I could not stop laughing. Spanish was good but long. Its getting harder... which I don't appreciate. I worked a double shift in the dinning hall and Kaylee came down with me for while. I did room checks and went to dinner. After dinner Kaylee and I ran and crashed the high school bonfire because the donut truck was there :) I also had an RA meeting which went well but then we had to run around and find beds for the prospective students that were coming for the Open House. Lexie, one of my girls, came in to my room and worked on homework and didn't leave till around 1:30 in the morning!


Friday we had a great forum by our President. He announced some new changes being made to the school. I got some school work done the rest of the day. We filmed a few scenes for my literature and film project and we got dinner. I spent a lot of time with Lexie again that night. We ordered pizza around 11 and spent time just talking. It was a lot of fun!

Saturday was the crazy Open House day! I was down on campus by 8am and we set up and got already. I was a student guide again and had three boys in my group. Actually all three of them are coming here in January! We had a great turn out and a lot of excited prospective parents and students. That ended around 1:30 and then I went up to the last home football game. It was a little chilly... but it was good. I didn't stay very long before I walked back down to campus to be with two of my girls. We ended up just hanging out down here till 5 when Kaylee and I went to dinner at the Krites house. That was a lot of fun and very relaxing! After that I went back up to the lofts and spent some time by myself in my room. I hung up some new decorations in the hall, delivered some gifts to my sports girls, and just laid on my bed and watched Netflix. At about 10:30 John John and I went to Walmart and on a drive. It was a lot of fun! I got back home and just went to bed.

Sunday was good. It was another day where nothing really got done which was kind of nice. Ward Council and church went well. After church we hung out outside because it was so nice and then ate dinner. After dinner I facetimed family then went late to this fireside. It was a panel with three of the greatest couples on campus! One was my bishop and his wife and they just answered questions about dating and marriage. After that I went to the Lofts, talked to Emma, checked in on Reva and Cody and then got ready for bed!
This is a secret picture Kaylee took of me.

It was kind of a weird and tiring and long week. But in the end it was great! I will say that I am SOOO excited for Thanksgiving :)
