First Week of School

All right, I admit it.... I'm a slacker. I know I need to update this more often. Seriously. It's kind of ridiculous that I only have one post in August, and now this is my first post in September. -sigh- Yeah.... I should fix that... maybe. If I'm not too busy or lazy or have other things happening. :/

I'm officially back in Utah. No more Colorado. Which is sad, I miss it there. Love Colorado a lot. The drive to Utah was good. Until my car broke down.... like a bajillion times. I thank my friends, specifically Katie and Meghan for letting me room with them. And dealing with my anger at my car. It's a good thing I had my entire life packed in the trunk so I didn't need to worry about having nothing to stay over night. ^^; Anyway, my car is fixed and doing good. It hasn't caused me problems since. So I have high hopes for it.

While in Utah, I did spend time with friends. And I had some fun with my mom and brothers. More my mom than my brothers, since they were in Colorado a lot with me before I got to see my mom. It was nice to see her, cause I hadn't seen her all summer, except when I came for Adam's funeral. Yup, my mom is awesome. I would just like to point that out.

I did finally get to see Adam's grave, with the headstone. I stayed there for at least two hours, just talking to him. I miss him a lot. I cried... and prayed and talked. It's kind of revealing to talk to him because I know he's still listening. I really do miss him. And I hope he approves of what I'm doing with my life. How I am doing, how I keep going. I hope he approves of whoever I end up with. Knowing him, he'll be jealous. But, I honestly do wish he were here. I would spend all day at the cemetery talking with him if I could. Too bad I'm two hours away... If he were still alive, he would be in Utah right now, visiting from Germany. We had plans to hang out every weekend, since I had school and he wanted to see his family. He was going to come up to see me one weekend and I was going to go down and see him another. I still have the dates of when he was flying in on my calendar. Gosh.... I need to stop otherwise I will type myself to tears. I'm already almost doing that. Anyway, I visited him and left him flowers, and notes. Then the sprinklers came on... and chased me away. I got super wet. But, at least I saw him.





That's Adam's headstone. It's really beautiful. I gave him the purple flowers and the flag bucket. I actually wrote on the bucket too. And hid notes inside it for him. :) But, I'm really glad I got to see it. To the right you see a 7-up bottle and there's some skittles there too. That's actually his favorite drink and candy. No joke. I was wondering who gave those to him. It made me laugh to see those. Anyway, I miss him a lot.

Onto more happy events.....

I did start school! Yes, my second year of college. Go Aggies!!! USU for the win!! I am having a good semester. I love my classes. Well, most of them. I'm taking History, Eled 1010, English 2010, Physics, and Big Band Swing level 2. And Institute. All of them are great. They all have their own workload... I think the class I'm most worried for is History. It's all exams, nothing else.... essay exams. I'm just worried cause if I bomb one, there's goes my grade. But other than that, great schedule. I love Big Band Swing. I'm in the club and I'm trying out for the Swing Team. The tryouts are this Saturday, so... I hope I do well. I'm also applying for my program this year. The applications are due Oct. 1, so.... I'm working on that. But, I love things right now. My school day is usually over by 1pm. So I do hope to get a job. I'm still looking....

I am living with my aunt. Which is working. I love it here. I love spending time with the family, and going to school and everything. Things have just been working out nicely. It's good. :)

I really don't have any other exciting updates. I'm on my second week of school and just going with the flow. There haven't been any big USU events or football games or anything like that yet. So, I don't have any other cool pictures. I wish I did. I think it makes blogs more epic.

I should be starting a blog for my cousin Tyler who is serving his mission in Sweden. He's been sending us letters. I've mentioned the blog thing to my aunt... who likes the idea, but I'm the only one who blogs. So.... maybe it will happen. :D

Love you all. I hope to get better at this blogging thing.
