College Sophmore Year






Well, I am back in good ol' Rexburg and I have been awful about blogging!! BUT, here is a little recap of the last month and my first month back at school. The middle of August, I headed out to Blackfoot, ID where I worked at the Eastern Idaho State Fair with my aunt. She graciously got me a job there and let me crash at her place for 2 weeks and it was a blast! I got to spend time with her and my uncle and hang out with my cousins. So, I spent 2 weeks working (80 hrs a week) and made bank! haha Then I headed up to Rexburg to move in and start classes. I am living with my friends Brandi, Carly and Brittany and then we have two new roommates. They are both brand new freshman and are both from like 30 minutes away, so we don't see too much of them. My roomie Brittany and I have also been incredibly social lately! I think I made more friends in the first week here than I had in the last two semesters!! We made it our goal to meet as many new people as we could and we have been doing great at it!!! Other than that, we have just been staying up way too late, watching movies and catching up.
I am taking 18 credits so I am totally swamped but I am loving one of my education classes! I am doing my practicum and get to be in a kindergarten class two days a week in St. Anthony and I LOVE it!! I love my kindergartners and I have a great cooperating teacher!! I am excited to see what new things I learn this semester from being in an actual elementary classroom!
Well, here are some pics from the fair and the first few weeks of school. For the benefit of my family, I will try to be better about posting this semester!! :)
