Due to popular request

Ok, not really popular request, but due to my mom's request here is a new blog. :) I haven't had time to update for a while, and probably won't have too much time until December when this semester is over. At that time I will update everyone on everything, and I will add all the new pictures I have. Until then...

Rob got transferred to the Taylorsville area, and says he likes it a lot there. He is right by the Hires Big H which makes me a little jealous. (They have fabulous cheese fries and cherry lime-ades) He is now in a companionship with only one other elder, instead of two others like his last area. They have a baptism coming up on Friday night, and he says he is really enjoying teaching people and getting to know them. I am so glad that he hasn't been transferred out to the Sandy/Draper area of the Salt Lake South mission, I never go to Taylorsville so I know I won't ever run into him. I want to tell him to go to the General Army Navy Supply store on Redwood Road. It is pretty close to his area (if not in it) and it is probably one of the coolest stores to roam around in. He probably won't tell anyone what he wants for Christmas, because that is just how Rob is, but he is a man so candy and baked goods will always be enjoyed. He also likes pictures and other stuff to remind him of his friends and family, so if you felt like sending him something but didn't know what to send, there are some ideas.

I have been doing pretty good, there is only about 3 1/2 weeks left in the semester, which is awesome but scary at the same time. Scary because I have a 22-24 page paper to write before that time. I will probably be a zombie all during finals week trying to finish it. Which means I will probably be super tired and also very grouchy. So I give this warning now (especially to my sweet roomies): sorry if I snap at you, I don't mean it, but stress makes me irritable. :) Other than that work is going great. I still do relatively little for a good amount of pay, and I will have the same schedule next semester. I am only taking 12 credits next semester because that is all I need. I really only need to take 9 credits, but I need 12 to keep my scholarship. In other news, I drank a whole jug of strawberry orange banana juice in less than a week. It was so good. :) And I am not normally a juice drinker, so everyone should be proud. We made green bean casserole on Sunday night for the potluck dinner in our building and I just wanted to eat the whole thing by myself. haha, that stuff is so delicious. My little brothers and I have worked out a deal where we are switching video games for a few weeks. They will keep my xbox 360 and the games with it, while I will take their PS2 and the rock band/guitar hero games. I am so excited. That will help to relieve my stress during finals week. :) It is finally cold in Logan. yay! I love it when it gets cold. I get to wear my big coat, sweaters, gloves and scarves. :)

I hope everyone has had a fantastic November so far. Have a great Thanksgiving, and I will try to update this again soon. :)
