First Day as a College Student!

Hey guys! Today was the first official day of college. I'm lucky b/c I have a pretty easy schedule for this semester. My hardest class as in studying will be chemistry most likely. But the most grueling will be swimming...no joke! For our midterm we have to swim a half mile. Then for our final we have to swim a mile. I might (no...I will) be exercising (swimming) on a regular basis so that I can actually swim it! I'm going to be in such great shape by the end of this semester! I can't wait! But most of the other people in my class have NO idea how to swim & are afraid of the deep end, so at least I am ahead of some of those guys in that I can swim, just not very well, and I LOVE being in the deep end!

Other than that, I only have one more class to attend for today and I'll be leaving for that in like 20 minutes. That one is chemisry.

College life is GREAT! I love being responsible for myself. Like at home I didn't necessarily do stuff (like keep things clean, etc.), but here I take around 1-2 showers every day and wash my dishes after I use them, fix meals for myself, keep my bedroom clean, and do my own laundry. I have been doing good...I've had some roommate problems but hopefully we'll be fixing those soon. It's challenging, but at the same time it's okay. I know that I'll be able to get through it even if it means going home more often than I thought I would. I'm okay with that though cuz I get to see you guys again!:) It's funny...it's only been like 6 days since I left and I already miss all you guys like crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I'm gonna go and wash the last dish. Oh and I haven't been doing what a lot of college students do...like the easy meals...I actually cook for myself and love it! Today I made a ranch and bacon pasta! YUMMY! It filled me up. Haha.

Okay. I'm coming home this weekend for my best friend's birthday bash party so I'll see you guys on Sunday at church (I'm leaving a little after church to come back) and then over Labor Day weekend I'm coming back (basically the next week) after my church b/c we're all getting sustained a week from this Sunday. I'll be there on Labor Day though so if any of you want to do something, you know my number!:)

One more thing...soooo embarrassing! So I kinda had a shaving accident (wasn't my fault, again with the roommate problem but I'm not gonna go into it so if you wanna know just ask me sometime) last night and my leg was gushing blood. I run out and we're trying to stop the bleeding right as my new bishopric and relief society president walk in. Ya...EMBARRASSING!

Okay, now I really better go! Love you guys!
