Time goes by, so slowly...

So, I know it's been a little while since my last post...I was planning on updating every week. But things come up and I never seem to find the right time. I am planning a huge post in a few weeks complete with pictures and everything. I made a trip down to Salt Lake City and visited the Krishna Hindu Temple, the Holy Trinity Greek orthodox Cathedral, and the Cathedral of the Madeleine (which is Roman Catholic). I will elaborate more on that trip as soon as I have the pictures developed. I would have them sooner but I left my digital camera back in CA and had to use disposable cameras.

In other news, the roommate situation is interesting to say the least. There is a very different vibe in the apartment now. Four of my roommates have lived together, or have known each other, for a long time. Amy and I share a room, which is good because I lived with her before; but I really don't like being in my apartment. I have to nothing to say to my roommates. We just don't really click. It's like we have nothing in common. I spend most of my time downstairs at my sister's apartment. I get along with her roommates great! She is living with a wonderful group of girls.

School is going well, if not slowly. Classes are hard at times, but I think I will be okay. Everything seems pretty much on track for my graduation this December. I can't wait! Reflecting back over the last few semesters up here, I have come to realize that the first few weeks of the semester are always the longest. The semester seems to drag on until, like, November. Then it seems as though time is flying by. I hope that it starts to feel that way soon. I am very much over the whole school thing. My poor sister has a lot more of it! I hope she likes it up here enough to continue. I am pretty sure that she will. I guess that is pretty much it for now; not much exciting happening. I will probably have a few more posts before I put the Utah trip pictures up. Until then, take care everyone!

I'm back again...

Okay, I am now back at school...And as promised I will be trying to keep up with the whole blog thing a little better. I just got here yesterday, after having spent two weeks at a cabin in Island Park with my family. I am so beat...It's been a long couple of days. I don't know if I have ever felt this tired. Of course, I am sure I will be saying that later this week as I try to get up for my 8am class everyday. I get tired just thinking about it. I have now met all of my roommates, actually Amy (who I have lived with before) is not coming until tomorrow at noon. The new roommates seem nice, but they all know each other and are like best friends or something...So right now I feel like a little bit of an outsider, I hope that will change when Amy gets here and I know at least one person.

So far I have spent more time in my sister's apartment, where I know more people, then I have in my own. That's okay though...I want to focus on school this semester...And this group of girls seem like the type that are constantly on the move...So it will be nice to have quiet time to study. Between the five of us that are here so far, we all managed to miss seeing each other at all until last night when we all came home. My sister and I, and one her roommates, went and saw "Lady in the Water" and a cheap theater they have here. It is my second time seeing it, think it is a really good movie...The trailers were really deceiving with what it was going to be like.

It is weird in this apartment now...Every other time that I have lived here Audra and Melissa have lived here too...It's kind of strange without them here. School hasn't even started yet and I can't wait for it to be over...Actually, I kind of want school to start just so I can start getting my routine down and start doing homework instead of doing mindless surfing on the internet. Plus, once school actually starts I will have more to do. Okay, I guess that's it for now. Some time later this week I will post about my vacation...But not now. I am still tired and I am getting a headache from looking at the screen. I'll post again soon!
