By the time I get to the end of January, I am looking forward to spring. Unfortunately for me, spring in Utah doesn't begin until April. It makes for one long winter semester. BUT, on the bright side, it means that it is still cold enough to wear my cute jackets, I can still look forward to the possibility of snow, and I can still enjoy a cup of hot chocolate without getting weird looks.
The semester has been going pretty well. I am enjoying my classes, though I am wishing that I only had to take 5 classes instead of 6. Taking 16 credits is just enough to make me go slightly insane when midterms and finals come.
I’m still getting used to writing/typing 2010 on all of my papers. It’s still kind of surreal to me that I’m 21, married, and graduating in a little over a year. Time flies whether I’m having fun or not! But really, I am happy. Life has been pretty great, if not a little stressful.
One of my professors showed us a quote a few days ago that says: “The man on top of the mountain didn’t just fall there.” I don’t know who said it, but I would like to thank them. When times get tough this semester, I hope I will be able to think about this. It takes hard work to make it anywhere worth going.

Happy Birthday!
Well, the holidays have officially ended now that my birthday has passed. Yes, the holidays do not end until I have celebrated my birthday.
I guess I want to back track a little. New Year's was great. We had an awesome time celebrating with Liz and PJ before they left for SoCal. We actually helped them get their moving truck loaded and their storage unit empty. Definitely a bittersweet moment. It's a good thing for them because PJ got a job, but I'm sure going to miss them. Anyway, we had a great time eating dinner, playing games, and drinking sparkling cider. It's hard to believe that we are already in 2010!
Bryan's family invited us up to Ogden the day before my birthday so they could throw a small birthday party for me. Almost the entire family was there and we had a good time. I'm 21! Crazy, eh? I got some movies and games. Bryan got me a new pair of pants and an i-tunes gift card. I'm pretty excited to use it.
All in all, a great way to start off the new year!
