Back In Business

HELLO! Well, I've been on... sabbatical for the last month and I've decided to get back into letting the people around me know what's going on in my life. Number one, my family. Especially my sister across the country. Number two, Cecilly. Because she has become a devote blogger, and we love story swaps. What other way to do so besides web 2.0?

The last month has been eventful. I went home a second time, and a third for Thanksgiving. State-wide blizzard warnings, snow storms larger than blizzards, long treks, great food, family chats, campus closure, Harry Potter, Tangled, school, mission plans, discovery, just dance, just dance 2, friend wedding plans, guitar arrangements, next semester registry, and much more. Wow. Much more eventful than I thought.

I do know that is a lot of information, and that I can't talk about it all in one post, so if anything particularly awesome pops up into my head, I'll be sure to post.

BUT, I'll just start with today :)

I woke up, still not feeling well, and went and took a quiz )the last assessment until finals week I might add), then headed home. I was starving because I hadn't eaten very much the last several days so I decided I definitely deserved a quesadilla, ramen, and a giant glass of eggnog. But, my stomach had other plans. It was definitely upset with my for my previous. So I struggled all throughout institute for my poor decision making skills. Later, I made jalapeno corn! mmmm. Then caught up on some TV. Gotta love Grey's.

I'm really excited to see where I go on my mission! It's so exciting to think in six months, I could be in New York, England, China, Spain, Brazil, or even Wyoming. My mission is going to do some good for me, and I'm excited for the outcome. Although I'm nervous for the trials that will be placed in front of me, I know I'll have extra help. I've also been thinking a lot about what happens after a mission. I really want to pursue my aspiration of medical school, but it'll probably change within the next two years. I'm thinking of attending the U once I return. I'm really excited about this.

I recently visited the U for a medical student program, and LOVED it. I loved SLC as well! I had never been to SLC for a personal trip. It's always been to family's homes in surrounding cities, or FBLA/DECA trips and we stay in the hotel, and of course the Vernal trip to the gateway. But other than that, first trip! I had an exciting time walking on campus, visiting the dorms, and going to nightmare on 13th. I think Salt Lake will be a perfect city for me to live in and pursue a degree. Cedar is good, but it's small and very far away. I want a university experience of having more than 20,000 students attending, and the sports teams are a big deal, and an academic challenge. It all attracts me, and I can't wait. PS I do have a story for you, about the med program I attended at the U. I'll tell you later, for now it's bed time

Duerme bien.
