Already?

I have a confession... I'm already counting down the days until "summer break". Summer break for BYU-Idaho students is about seven weeks from the end of July until the middle of September. I've literally been going to school non-stop for about... forever! Haha. I really love learning but I think I need a break and considering how crazy busy this semester is going to be with very demanding classes, an intense calling, and the fact that it's spring semester and I would like to have at least a little bit of fun considering that it's my last spring here. (Sad) I sure hope I can enjoy these next 73 days!

I woke up to an email from my college telling me I needed to check out my financial aid account because there has been some changes. I was a little worried because I had no clue what that meant. I logged onto my account and saw this...

WOOHOO! I got a scholarship for my last semester of college here and I'm pretty stoked about it because that means less debt for me! :)

RS Pres?

Well folks, believe it or not I'm in charge of 24 young women in my ward. I received the call to be the Relief Society president this semester! My first feeling was excitement, believe it or not! Haha. Then, last night I started to get a little nervous, eek! Today went well and I'm excited to see what this semester holds for me especially with my already crazy homework load! BUT- with the Lord I can do all things! I found this online and thought it was funny.. 

"I have four cousins."

Whenever I play the game "two truths and a lie", I always use the truth- I have four cousins. No one believes me because most LDS people have so many cousins they haven't met all of them! Haha. My cousin, Jessicah, posted this picture on Facebook recently and it turned out really well!

Portlandia.

I think it's pretty obvious that I'm obsessed with my home town- Portland. I'm woman enough to admit it, it's okay. ;) I'm half way through my time home this week and I've loved every minute of it! I've also realized how much I love the color green!

How could you not fall in love at first sight?! My oh my, I took this beauty for granted until I moved to Idaho... Don't get me wrong--> I LOVE Idaho but this is where the saying, "there's no place like home" comes in and it is 100% true!
