So Many Questions...

"So many questions...." I find myself thinking that a lot as I walk around this bubble that some like to call Utah. Just the other day I saw a girl riding a unicycle around campus....so many questions... I also saw duck in the parking lot. I had a lot of questions about that until I was then enlightened to the fact that there is a duck pond on campus. Why is there a duck pond?...I have no clue. Another thing that puzzles me to no end is this apparent obsession that Utah (and kinda Idaho too) have with ratting their hair. I mean with the heat and the dryness my hair is big enough as it is. Why would you want to back comb your hair and make it HUGE!?! So many questions.
It's been a good first week though. By now it doesn't really feel like a first week. It feels like I've been doing this for a long time. I was asked just a few minutes ago if I was nervous about living on my own. At first I was...seriously...I was a wreck. But now that I've been doing it for a week it's not biggie. I'm fine with cooking my own food, in fact, I'm pretty pro at it. I've also picked up a few groceries. It's nice to do things on my own. Everything I do something I have that GO ME!! feeling and I love it!
I just got back from watching Zoolander with the guys from the building next to us. I guess it was pretty funny. I don't really know because I was basically asleep the whole time. That's a problem I have. Unless I'm completely uncomfortable, you put on a movie and I'm out in less than 5 minutes.
Just to clarify from my last post...OCD is supposed to be a joke. Yes, I do love crossfit but I wouldn't want anyone to worry that..oh I don't know...that I've turned into that weird girl who only talks about kettle bell swings ;)
There is one thing that I have really been worried about and sure enough my worst nightmares are coming true. It's something that I vowed to myself would never happen to me. However, when you come to Utah and go to BYU I guess it's inevitable. It is........the farmer's tan!!!!!!! It's been high 90s to the 100s the past few days and I spend a good portion of that time outside walking. My arms are actually pretty dark just not my shoulders. It pretty much kills my soul.
I went to dinner with my "cousin" Tyson last night. I say "cousin" because he is really my dad's cousin but he is closer to me in age than he is to my dad so he's my cousin or in his words, "we're twins can't you see it?" I was fun though. It was me and him and his wife, their two friends and their friend's little son Owen. It was nice to get out. To this point I haven't ventured very far so I was getting a little bored. But they saved me :) It was also nice to be with some real people. Not that the people I see on campus aren't real it's just that it seems like everyone is so on and happy and 'every thing is awesome' all the time. I'm happy don't get me wrong but I do have a sarcastic side. I like to joke around. So it was nice to be with people who more matched my personality if you know what I mean.
Well I'm so tired. I get to sleep in tomorrow thank goodness!! Hope all is well. Keep in touch. Like I said I get a little bored sometimes so it's nice to hear from people. Text me whenever!! Lots of Love!!

  1. I was laughing about the big hair--you can add New Jersey to the list of big hair places... It must be the "Jersey Shore" influence. Oh! And don't forget Texas--when we lived there EVERYONE had big hair--but everything is bigger in Texas anyway. Glad to hear that you are settling in so well! It is weird to move after you have only lived in one place for so long, but it sounds like you are figuring it out! Love you!
