One fine day(s)

So, my new semester has started and it's the bomb. Seriously, I love all of my classes, and I feel I'll do very well this time around. I'll keep you posted more about what goes on in my classes, but this blog is dedicated to the sweetest day(s) I've had in a long time. Here goes..

Monday:
Started school. I am enrolled in a Country Swing dance class.. it's so fun, complete with LOTS of attractive men. Good thing too- you get to dance with every single one of them. Yes, please! My roommates and I went out to eat lunch at Beehive Grill, found out that they sell gourmet burgers for $2.50, complete with tons of fries. Yes, please! And there was an Aggie basketball game in which we dominated BYU-Hawaii.. Pretty good day over-all.

Tuesday:
The greatest day of all. Went to my classes, enjoyed them all, and while I was walking home, I was stopped by a really attractive guy who just wanted to talk. Nobody does that anymore! Also, another cute guy asked for my number.. Made my day. Later on, we went to Taco Bell. Don't worry they messed up somehow and gave me a free burrito along with my regular meal, so I had a free dinner. American Idol started up.. need I say more? The secretary of my ward called and asked if I could meet with this bishop, so needless to say, I am the new Visiting Teacher Coordinator! I was SOO happy! I've been waiting for a calling since I moved to Logan 10 months ago! I finally got my church calling, and I know I'm going to love it, and be blessed because of it. Lastly, $2 tanning.. always a good day.

Wednesday:
I learned how to Country Swing dance, and I'm not too bad! It was actually really fun. My roommate Elicia made Chicken Alfredo for dinner and invited a cute boy over.. that's always nice. And the dinner was AMAZING.. Shot out to Elicia for fixing dinner! At the Kent concert Hall on campus, the Institute put on the Joseph Smith movie. I was so excited to go, I love the movie, and bawl every time without fail. I asked this cute returned missionary if he wanted to go, so we met up with him. It was nice to catch up.

Thursday:
I went over to my grandparents house to watch the Jazz game. My sweet grandma made me some dinner and sent me home with a bag of potatoes. My favorite thing in the world! Grandma, if you're reading this, I really appreciate all that you and Grandpa do for me! You're the greatest grandparents in the world! To top it all off- The Jazz won!! If you guys didn't watch the game.. you missed out for sure!! A rookie made a 3-pointer at the buzzer, and swished it! I cried a little bit. Sleeping after that shot was almost impossible. I'm still on a high. Go Jazz!!!

So far this week has been complete with cute boys, blessings, and victories! I sure hope today, tomorrow, and sunday will be good too. That would make this week legit, no doubt.

Current Obsession(s)

I like Michael Buble.. I really do.
And I really like his new song, "Haven't Met You Yet."
It's basically how I feel in a nutshell, I'm glad someone put it into words for me.
So hats off to you, Michael. Your song is my new current obsession.
& here are the lyrics for your convenience.. :]

I'm not surprised,
Not everything lasts,
I've broken my heart so many times I stopped keeping track.
Talk myself in, I talk myself out, I get all worked up, Then I let myself down

I tried so very hard not to loose it;
I came up with a million excuses,
I thought I thought of every possibility
And I know some day that it’ll all turn out,
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And I promise you kid that I give so much more than I get~
mmm.......I just haven't met you yet.

I might have to wait,
I’ll never give up,
I guess it's half timin', and the other half's luck.
Wherever you are,Whenever it's right,
You'll come outta nowhere and into my life.
And I know that we can be so amazin',
And baby your love is gonna change me,
And now I can see every possibility, mmmmmm....

Somehow I know that it’ll all turn out,
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And promise you kid, I'll give so much more than I get,
mmmm....I just haven't met you yet.

They say all’s fair in love and war
But I won’t need to fight it,
we'll get it right and we'll be united
and I know that we can be so amazin'
And bein' in your life is gonna change me,
And now I can see every single possibility, mmmmmm

And someday I know it'll all turn out,
And I'll work to work it out,
Promise you kid I’ll give more than I get
Than I get, than I get, than I get.

Oh, you know it'll all turn out,
and you'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And promise you kid to give so much more than I get,
yeah I just haven't met you yet.

I just haven't met you yet,
Oh, promise you kid,
To give so much more than I get.

I said love love love love love love love.....
I just haven't met you yet
Love love love .....So doy day ay ay ay, ay ay yeah
I just haven't met you yet!

-Even though basically all of my friends are married/engaged/dating I'm not worried. I know my time will come, whenever that may be. But as for right now.. I'm having fun. I'm in a good place with good people, and I have the sweetest roommates. I have all this time to strengthen my testimony, and grow closer to the Lord. I have my whole life ahead of me to get married. But if the opportunity does come up faster than expected.. I won't complain. :]

****************************
Also, I have another 'Current Obsession':


My roommate Emily and I made dinner tonight and it was delish. I made tortilla soup, which was okay.. it was store bought and not the homemade kind that my mom makes, so it didn't really compare.. but Emily made Bubble Bread. Basically cinnamon rolls in a different form. Anyway, it was absolutely amazing! Thank you Emily for introducing me to a little slice of Heaven!
Smells delicious!

This is Emily's 'I Love Bubble Bread' face!
Well, it's kind of late, and I've got to get reading my scriptures before I fall asleep. One of my New Years Resolutions is to read everyday and I've done pretty well so far! Hopefully by doing this, the Lord will help me ace my classes this semester! Huzzah!

aaaaaand I'm back!

After a very much needed long break at home, I've come back to reality and responsibilities in Logan. I also changed up my blog a little bit, so feel free to look around. I'm excited to start back up with school and institute, and to have a schedule again. I always feel like I'm wasting time when there's nothing that I need to get accomplished in the day. But anyway, I just wanted to say that I'm back, I'm alive, and ready to start blogging again! I know you missed me..
