So I have been super lazy lately when it comes to blogging and I have had so much happening that I can report! I want to start with the good and move to the not so good just because I know that the good most definitely out ways the bad.
Being at BYU-I is a blast! I love being here and all the freedom that comes with it. I know that I had tons of freedom at home but there is a certain freedom that comes from just not having my mom there all the time for me. As much as I loved her there and all the help she gave I am glad to have this experience and the chance to grow from it. My classes are really easy and some even fun, all the teachers are very nice and willing to help you anyway that they can. Which is more you can say for high school teachers! Haha. Most of my classes I have Annie in so I have study help and we get stuff done fast and well together. The only thing that concerns me as of now is that I have two research papers that I need to do and I am not motivated at all to do them! I guess that is just how it goes in school though.
Church here is quite a bit different than at home! I don't mind the difference but I do miss that I had my own bathroom to get ready for church in! This morning I enjoyed an iceberg as a shower! But once again that is how college life goes.
My apartment is pretty nice for the most part, I love my room and the size of it! I am glad to have the room mate that I have to share a room with. We both like things organized, keep things where they need to go and don't mind the smell of nail polish and nail polish remover as we are always doing our nails! Haha
The only not too good thing that I am struggling with here at college is that six girls in one smallish apartment is not working so well. I was really looking forward to having a whole bunch of girls to get to know and love. The only problem is that all of us don't have the same standards of clean. For most people this wouldn't be too much of a problem but I pride myself on a clean kitchen and a good smelling place. As of right now I do not live in one. I love to have no dishes in the sink, the garbage taken out, and to not have to do anything but enjoy a clean kitchen! I am disappointed in ways that I can't seem to find my voice in this situation but I also don't want to be that girl who is always nagging. The only way that I see lately to solve this problem is just to clean it myself. But even then I am cleaning two or three times a day. I thought this was college! Not kindergarten where kids don't know how to load a dishwasher or even wash a dish! I guess I was just given this challenge to teach me something and as I try to search for it I will have to hold my head high and be happy for this opportunity at all.
Overall I enjoy college life but like with any other change there comes challenges. I will just have to learn and grow from it. As of now I just trying to stick with it and have some fun!
