10 facts about my life as of late

1) My classical music Pandora playlist and the library = what I've been living off of for the past few weeks. Hence the absence of blogging in my life. Or anything at all that doesn't have to do with math, chemistry, or sleeping really. Including cleaning my room. Melissa was very patient with me about that and I'm so thankful to her for it. {For the record Dad, the room is now clean. Despite what you may think, I can't function in a room like that for long!}
2) I've come to realize that I have the best roommates ever.
3) Also, there are so many people here that are so, soo much smarter than me.
4) Automatic flushing toilets scare the beans out of me. They are evil and I hate them. {Whyy on earth are all the toilets in the hbll automatic?!}
5) For the past few weeks I've had to be on campus from around 7am till midnight every day, and for reasons that aren't so fun. But at the same time, I love it. BYU campus is so beautiful and holds this feeling of learning and bettering one's self, and I can't help but be happy and excited about my life and future when I'm there. Even when the only reason I'm there is to sit on my bum in the library for forever and a half to study imaginary numbers. I really do love this university.
6) Last year I started this weird thing of keeping ongoing lists of random things on my phone, serious and funny - names for my future kids, things I'm thankful for, funny things friends say, things I like about myself, things I want to change about myself, qualities I like in guys, words I really like, Chuck Norris jokes, etc. Whenever I see or think of something regarding one of them, I just plug it in there. And now I'm really glad I've gotten in the habit. It's kind of therapeutic in a weird way and fun at the same time. Maybe I'll post some sometime.
7) The leaves are changing. [:
8) Today I spent 9 hours of my day in the library catching up in the math and chem classes I added late. One of my roommates guessed I probably hadn't eaten dinner yet {which was correct - I hadn't eaten since breakfast} and came all the way from our apartment to the hbll with a pb&j, granola bar, part of her emergency stash of chocolate, and a hug, and then kept me company and studied with me till midnight. Further evidence of why Miss Molly is probably one of my most favorite people in the WORLD. Seriously that girl is an angel in disguise. My Heavenly Father always makes sure someone's lookin out for me. Always. What a comfort that is.
9) A good hug can cure anything. ANYTHING.
10) My family is on their way down to Provo as we speak. General Conference is this weekend. Dinner date and football game against USU tomorrow night. Life is good.

Apartments > dorm rooms.

Living room, plus my homework pile. Also please notice the sweet sound system,
which you can see on either side of the cabinet. Our apartment is pretty much
dance party central. Noo big deal.

The kitchen, which last night survived the first roommate dinner of the 

semester before we ran across campus to hear Elder Oaks in the Marriott Center. Molly and Melinda

 made fajitas, Melissa and I did the rice, and Whitney and Tonya supplied chips and salsa. It was perfect.

Our lovely two-bathroom prep area.

And the best part: Melissa's and my room!

And that's about it! Living in an apartment is SO DIFFERENT from living in the dorms, 

and I love it. I love my roommates:

 I love the other people in our complex, I love my ward, I'll try real hard to learn to love

 the hassle of making food, and of course I love this school. 

Anyways, there you have it. My home away from home. A real live apartment.

{I'm a sophomore... That's weird to think about.} 

Life is gooood.
