Craziness

So this semester has been really busy! I haven't had the time, or the inclination to be honest, to update this until now. This semester has been a busy one, but it has been filled with lots of fun too. I guess I'll just go over some of the hightlights of the semester so far! First of all, I decided to defer my internship until either next semester or the summer. I did it for a few weeks, and then just got too busy to do everything to my own satisfaction. I talked to my internship director and he said that it would be just fine if I waited until later when I was able to devote more time to it. So I won't have to worry about that until later! It was such a stress off my back and I've been much more balanced since I stopped that.

Second of all, this is such a busy semester, school-wise, that I haven't been able to do as many fun things as I would've liked to. But here are a few things that I've done over the last few months.

I went to a soccer game with my roommate Ellisha and some friends from the ward, Kory and Jordan. I'm not usually a fan of soccer, but this was fun!

Me and Ellisha happy to be out in the Sun!

We also went camping a few weeks into school. The next morning, some of the boys that came biked up to the Hot Pots, but most of us girls just came to camp and have an adventure!

Here are the girls in the group, from left to right: Anaka, Cecilia, Katelyn, Karin, Sarah

So Tyler brought this lollipop thing that had plastic lips on the outside. Doesn't he look great?!

This is me and Sarah. She's becoming one of my best friends! She's just so great!!!

Look who we found the next morning?! Unfortunately, Benj didn't come with anyone and didn't know where we camped. He slept in his car about 50 yards from where we were because he showed up about 10 minutes after we all went to bed. Sad Day!
So here's the whole group the next morning (don't worry, we had two separate tents, one for the boys and one for the girls) From left to right: Rick, Karin, Andy, Tyler, Anaka, Cecilia, Kately, Sarah, Benj. Rick couldn't find our campsite either, we should've given better directions.... :(

I decided to do something different with my hair a few weeks ago. I have never done anything except cut my hair. I've never died it or permed it or anything. I decided to try a very loose perm! It's very different, but I like it!

Here I am with my wonderful hairdressers! Thanks again girls, I love it!

Unfortunately, I don't have a great picture of the finished product, but you can see that my hair is wavy in the next few pictures.

At a last minute decision, a bunch of us decided to go to the midnight showing of Where the Wild Things Are. It was a great movie. Way different than I thought it was going be, but I liked it. We went and got our tickets early and then just hung out at the mall. The four of us that were there at that point decided to get into the photo booth and take pictures with my camera. Here's one of them. I love that both Rick and Ellisha have their eyes closed. It's just great!

Here's a little better picture of the hair. You can see a little bit of wave, right?

It's been a crazy couple of months, but obviously we've made time to have at least a little bit of fun!
