Ouch!!!

Sooo this week I just kept hurting myself. :( I kept running into things and yeah not fun! The first picture is from when I ran into a desk in class trying to get to my seat. So whenever I hit that leg is hurts. I don't know how I hit my leg because the desk is lower than where my bruise is. Sad

The these two pics are of when I got caught in the water slide. :( and yeah... Now it really really hurts to walk and shoes are a nightmare. So yeah that's my life story of the week. :)

She's engaged!!!!

My roommate Chelsea just got engaged to her boyfriend Tyler the other day. I'm way excited. They're getting married on August 27th!
I made the cake for them... while they were off getting engaged. :) Tyler sent Chelsea a text on Monday during FHE saying "I'm going to do a session tomorrow night. Then I'll come get you around 8:30. Oh and wear nice clothes and bring a camera." So my other roommates and I were like you're going to get engaged!!! and she did. :)
oh and I have such amazing culinary skills wouldn't you say?! I barely got the whole congrats on there.... :) btw I made them take this picture after Chelsea had started to cut the cake. haha

New Apt and a new Semester!

I have finally moved off campus. And it's been great!! :) My roommates are Chelsea, Jackee, and Tiffany. We all get along great! We got lucky to only have 4 people in a 6 people apt. Go 14a!

Fun with Skype!! :)

So basically I had fun taking pics of Spencer and Michelle and Jean while talking to them on Skype. :)  Spencer is such a cute little boy!!!

Cherilyn loo WHO?

My friend and I took pictures the other day and I saw this one and thought I looked like a Who from How the Grinch Stole Christmas.  :)

Only 8 days to go

I'm sooooo excited for this next week!!! I'm going to be finishing up Winter semester up here at BYU-I! :) Wahoo! (I'll be done with my freshman year of college!) Then I get to go home to El Paso for the first time since July 5th!! I'm pretty excited. I'll be home for a week and I'm pretty excited. I think because I'm so excited it makes it seem so much farther away than it really is or maybe it's because this semester has flown past. I just have to make it through finals week first. I think I can do it... ;)
