First Month of 2015

Well last time I wrote it legit snowed for the first time all year. I can honestly say that I'm glad we haven't had any more like that! Lately it's been rainy/foggy. Kinda cool but I sure do miss the sun and Mr. BlueSky. 

Well I've had a great month, I think. I worked New Year's Eve and I honestly didn't care. Haha. I didn't have anyone 'special' to spend it with anyway. So I made some money instead. Watched Taylor Swift perform in New York (on tv of course). Shake it off! I and like every other girl I know love 1989. Soooo good for not being country. I've always been a Swiftie fan though. 

I was itching for school to start, like I usually do. I just enjoy it that much I guess! I like having a structured schedule and learning things. Mostly I just feel good about being busy and improving myself. This semester I think I have lucked out with really liking my classes. I usually do anyway but this semester I have a bowling class and I get credit for going to the gym. What's not to love?! This is my first season going to the gym. I just never saw the need or the motivation but now that I'm going often, I love it! I like doing a little bit of everything while I'm there. 

Let's see, school has been good to me so far. I have Nutrition Assessment, Microec, bowling, gym, institute, and two seminar classes for RHS. I also volunteer as much as I like. I go to Iron Springs Elementary every Tuesday at 8 to administer fluoride to the kids. It's actually pretty fun. I'm also in 4H, where you help school children of a certain age with homework. I have yet to attend to that. 

January 28th my friends came back to the United States from South America. You bet I was eager for that day to come. I'll say the couple of days before seemed to be the longest of any day I waited. I had worked a couple of shifts, but that still didn't help much. 

I admit I got some anxiety when their dad told me they missed their flight from Atlanta to Salt Lake. I had to wait another 5 hours. It was all good. My parents drove me down to St. G to go meet up with them at the airport, basically clear out in BFE. Hahaha. I had a countdown app on my phone I'd look at multiple times a day, right down to the very last minute. Kinda fun. So after visiting my grandma and having dinner we headed on out. The plane landed about 10 minutes early. I remember standing right up in front by their family and them saying they could see them, but I couldn't! Ahhh. I couldn't stand the anxiety! So I had my camera on video recording all ready to go. Emotional would be the least when they came through the doors. I stood back and watched the very touching reunion. I was almost in tears, but none fell. One of the best days of my life.
