Everything!!

So, I really am bad at blogging. However, I hope that this post will be able to make up for it. The past few weeks I've been asked if I like being at the LDSBC. Of course I love being here! I've already mentioned in an earlier post why I like the school, but why do I like the area. Salt Lake City has grown on me and I am starting to love it here. Most of the pictures in this post are from the first month and a half of this semester. I do not take enough pictures and I do feel terrible about that. Well, I 'm done rambling!

Okay, this has nothing to do with fun activities but it makes me laugh. I was working on an English Project when I noticed this on the wall. (Yes, I was distracted and I wasn't paying attention to my group studying!) I started laughing really loud, like I was hyperventilating. I had my group read it and soon they were laughing. This sign might only be funny because we know some of the students at the LDSBC but this represents some of our school perfectly.

Have I mentioned how much I love being close to the Salt Lake Temple? Well, I love it! My roommate, Crysta, and I have Temple Wednesdays. We have a chance to go walk around the temple and take a break from homework, problems, and just relax. We have not been able to go the past few Wednesdays and it's been terribly sad. For my family, I promise I do not walk around at night alone. Yes, this picture was taken at night but I had multiple people with me and I really was safe. (Photo Credit goes to Crysta!)

This picture was taken after my first week at school. We had just attended the first year of school dance. Which are exactly like stake youth dances. Unlike stake dances, half of the group are dating or engaged. Which means these dances are terribly awkward if you are single. Well, back to the picture. I went with my friend, Brynn, and roommate, Kylee, to Pizza Hut. We ordered a whole pizza, bread sticks, and cinnamon sticks box. We ate it all in like twenty minutes. I have never been so full in my life. Really, I couldn't swallow my last bite of pizza and I barfed. It was a great experience but I won't do that again for a very long time!

Okay, who is that cute girl? That beautiful girl is my sister, Natalie. She is sweet, sassy, and very smart. I had the opportunity to have her come and stay with me for a night. We got to watch movies, sleep in my big bed, go to temple square, go to the roof of the conference center, look at my school, visit Desert Book, and go out to eat. I loved having her here and I want her to come back. I don't know if I told my mom this story but I'm going to share it on the blog. Natalie is super sassy and not very affectionate. Well, I guess she's affectionate in her own way. Natalie had been sassy the whole morning and I couldn't believe some of the things she said! She had some money on her and I took her into Deseret Book. Natalie has a deep love for books and I thought she would want to buy a book for sure. Natalie was pulling out her money and I was so proud of myself because I really know my sister. What she said next melted my heart. She wanted to buy my mom a book really bad. She wanted to make my mommy happy. We looked around but we had no idea what books my mom does not have. So mom, Natalie wanted to get you a book and I stopped her. Natalie loves you a lot and she really wanted to buy you a book. I think she was going to buy you a cook book!

What a heart!! Crysta and I heart attacked our roommate, Katelyn, door. This was the most pathetic heart and the only picture I got of the hearts and door. Katelyn has moved back home and we really miss her!

My Aunt Debbie is an amazing person. She is a blessing in so many people's life. She works at Marriott and does a great job for them. I really do believe if she left the company they would all fall apart. This package came on a Saturday. It had been a really hard week and I was really down. Kylee brought this package up to my room. I saw that it was from my Aunt Debbie and I read her message. This was a huge tender mercy. It was nice to know that my Aunt Debbie was thinking of me. In the package was this bucket full of treats. It had popcorn,cookies, chocolate, and gummies. I love little things like this and I really LOVE my Aunt Debbie! Thank you again Aunt Debbie!

My Uncle J and Aunt Libby came to Utah general conference weekend. I got to spend Saturday night with them. My Aunt Libby and I had a chance to drive to Prove alone. My Aunt Libby is a really neat lady. She is one of the strongest, coolest lady I know. She has great advice and has been through a lot. I really can't put into words how cool she is. I am so thankful that I got to spend so much time alone with her. The Chelson side is really big and it's not very often that you get one on one time. Well, I also got to spend time with Natashya, Andy, Porter, Milt, and Uncle Jay. We went out to this Chinese place. We had to wait for the boys to be done with Priesthood Meeting and we ended up eating about forty fortune cookies. After dinner we went to a Frozen Yogurt place and I loved it. It was delicious and the whole night was amazing. I am very thankful for Aunt Libby and Uncle Jay. I love you guys!

This was the first meal I made with my roommates. W had chicken, rice, mashed potatoes, salad and Tang. I think there was vegetables too! It was a delicious meal and I can't believe how much has changed since then!

This, my friends, is Crysta. We spend all of our time together. She is my roommate, sister, and best friend. I had the chance to go do Baptisms for the Dead at six o'clock in the morning with her. She is hugging a tree on temple Square in this picture. I will write a blog post about her soon.

FOOTBALL GAMES. This was the BYU vs. U of U game. The game did not end well but I loved being with my brothers. We were so close to the field and I loved it. We spent the whole day on campus. We went to the creamery and had some delicious Ice Cream. I've been to a lot of other games too. I wish it was easier to get to Provo because I really do love the atmosphere there.

This was the same weekend Aunt Libby and Uncle Jay came to visit. My Mom, Dad, Brigham, and Nathan came to Utah. My daddy and Nathan were going to visit my Aunt Debbie and they came a day earlier to go to a football game and Brigham's appointment. This was the first time I had seen my family in a month and a half. I was so excited to see them! I had a chance to go to Brigham's appointment, go out to eat, and visit with them I miss them so much and it was great to see them. I felt bad I didn't get to spend more time with my mom and Brigham. It was a great weekend though!!

Some other things I love to do here are going to improv shows, dances, and parties. It's very hard to be bored here and I love it very much. I have a lot to catch up on and I promise there will be post very soon!
