i hope you know somebody loves you
so i suppose now is as good of time as any to start updating again, now that i've had a moment to stop and breathe..
summer was pretty awesome, I accomplished a lot:
-I had my first intership @ cherry creek where I learned SOO much! and met some pretty cool people too. I also reconfirmed my desire to become a wedding planner! :)
-I auditioned for the bigtens. I was and still am very excited to be a part of the SMB!!
-I went to KY for a mission trip. Probably one of the coolest things I've done with my time. That experience has really made me want to do more volunteer work.
-I got my license! lol I finally did it, it still seems weird to me.
-I also got to spend a bunch of time with my family, friends, and derek! We had a bunch of BBQs, bonfires, and parties. It was nice to catch up on some of the time I missed with people!
so now i'm already well into my second year at msu. I moved in on the aug 18th. For the first two days I had receptionist training because I'm working at the front deak in shaw. Then the very next day SMB preseason began. We had preseason up until the day before classes started, it was a lot of work but also fun! Once classes began we went into a daily hour and a half rehearsal. I'm really pleased with my classes for this semester, I truly enjoy them all. I'm taking two hospitality classes, a science class, economics, and a social science. All of my teachers seem interesting and I know I have a lot to learn from them.
our first football game was yesterday. we played Idaho and won, 24-17 I believe? The entire day was very exciting! We marched to the stadium and then did our pregame show..SO MUCH FUN! :) It was an awesome experience! I marched the Iowa flag which was cool because I became quite attached to it during preseason! hehe The game was fun to watch, I'll admit it was my first MSU game so it was a good time. After we did one more song on the field and marched back. It was also the first night that us freshmen could wear our band jackets! yay! My mom and aunt went to the game so after we all went out to dinner! After dinner I ate this huge brownie/ice cream thing..it was so good especially because we couldn't have any ice cream during preseason, so it was my little reward to myself for making it through everything! lol kinda silly, i know.
that brings me to now. It seems like the past few weeks have gone by so fast. today is our first day off so i've been able to get a bunch of errands done with the help of my family. Derek will be coming up to see me tomorrow! I'm really excited, I miss him so much! Also, tomorrow night we have a 3 hour mini camp rehearsal for band. Then it's another week of school!
Well I'm going to take advantage of this free time and get a little reading done for class..
until.next.time
