First day of school! First day of school!

I DID IT!!!! I MADE IT THROUGH!!!! Today was my first day as a student at NAU! I went to 3 classes and did so much exercising I will hurt really bad tomorrow! This morning I woke up and made eggs and toast and got all ready! Since my hair was curled yesterday I had to curl it again today; which I don't even know why I did because it was flat by the time I got to school because of all the wind! I walked to my English 105 class first! It took me about 25 minutes to walk to school and get to class. We were let out early because it's the first day and really there is not much to talk about! I walked home after meeting up with Monet to chat for a minute and was home until about 1 when I rode Summer's bike back to school to eat lunch with Monet. I had macaroni and cheese in my backpack, along with pudding cups, salt and pepper, and a fork and spoon for each of us! We sat at a table in the math building to eat and then went to our math 150 class. That is going to be the most boring class ever but we will somehow figure out how to make it fun! We "rode" home after class. (I say that because Monet's bike was being dumb so we walked our bikes half way)
I was home for all of 30 minutes before I got to ride back again and go to my English 130 class! I'm actually really excited about that one because it's a lot of literature and reading. I love reading. And now that I will have a reason to I won't feel like I am wasting time.
After a really long ride home I plopped down on my sore butt on the couch and just SAT THERE! That could not last too long however because we had to eat dinner and leave before 7 so we could get to FHE on time! We got there and had a little lesson and then played games! I am so excited to be in such a fun ward where everyone is super nice to everyone else! We came home and Monet and Summer went and worked out while Breanne did homework and I the slacker child of the bunch sat and watched TV. Now, I didn't have any homework and I had had my WHOLE workout for the day so I told myself I deserved it! All in all it's been a crazy day but nothing as scary as I thought it would be! Go COLLEGE!!!!!!! Tomorrow is another first day because most of us don't have any of the same classes tomorrow! Especially me who only has one class tomorrow at 12:45. Nice huh?? I think so!
Sorry this post is so long but it's been an exciting day! Now we just have to get through this week so we can have a three day weekend! And Whitley and all our friends from the valley are coming up!

Good day!

Barely got kissed

Church was really awesome today! It was much better since the wards were split into University first, second, and third wards.  We got to take our pictures and listen to the bishop! It was our first time in the gospel principles class and we met some other people too. Our ward is super nice.  We left a little early from church so we could come home, change, and head to the job fair! We handed in applications at a few different places.
When we got home from the job fair we decided to watch pride and prejudice. I really liked it! Except for the fact that the entire movie...all I wanted was for Elizabeth to kiss Mr. Darcey and live happily ever after! But then right when we thought they were gonna kiss, they DIDN'T!! I was so upset! We waited until the VERY LAST SCENE when Mr. Darcey finally kissed her...on the forehead, on the ear, on the cheek, on the nose, on the chin, AND THE LIPS!!!!
So no I didn't get kissed...but Lizzy did :)

School starts tomorrow!! While we are all very excited it is also getting a little nerve wracking! Everyone is very excited! And we figured out that me and Monet get to have lunch every single day and the same class every day after lunch! We also figured out that we want to take a zumba class! Party!

So bored!

It's really time for school to start! We just sit at home all day and watch TV and eat!
Today I went to lunch with the amazing Korey!! It was so awesome! We went to this restaurant called Big Foot's and it's in the middle of a clothes store! What an adventure! We sat there and talked for like 2 hours just about everything! I was so excited to get to talk to her; I haven't talked to her since graduation so it was fun to catch up. We are going to the job fair tomorrow afternoon after church! We all need money!

Another funny thing we see in Flagstaff; a HUGE biker man on this bike where his hands were a good 6 inches above his head! This town is so entertaining!

Two men and a bed

Today was fun! We went to Home Depot to get some wood and nails and wood glue to make Summer's makeshift trundle bed. We also got a purple pot and some flowers! After we checked out that we really couldn't carry everything home, wood, pot, flowers,  nails, mirror...so we borrowed a cart! We are going to take it back but it was very useful! We got home and the cable guy came and did a MUCH better job and installing and explaining than the last guy.  We went to the bank, staples, and Wal Mart and came home. We walked all the way to campus to eat at the free BBQ which ended up being $5 and we didn't' have money.  So we walked all the way back, got our Arby's coupons, and went and ate curly fries!
 When we got back we decided to put together summers bed.  What we didn't realize is that we bought particle wood and really thick nails which means..cracks and lots of wood glue! After nailing things in for about 20 minutes while Breanne was gathering dirt for our pot, she comes over and says, "Guys....everyone above us is staring down at us..." We look up and there are four heads; two on the second floor and two on the third.  They are all looking down and laughing at us! They told us later that they were playing 'guess what they are hammering'.  We asked the guys on the third floor (Ian and Kenny) to come and help us. They came down and they smelled like beer but they were super nice! They came in and played wackee 6 with us and then left.  All in all, we have a bed stuck together with glue and probably stuck on the porch, as well as a really interesting night with our neighbors! They told us though that when the bed fell apart they would help us make a new one with good tools if we upgraded to the 99 cent wood instead of the 51 cent scrap wood that we bought. :)  We also ran into that same crazy car again at Wal Mart today!

A Day with no end!

    It's been a CRAZY day! It was fun waking up with all four girls here!  We all got up, organized the new bedroom, and ate cereal!  We went to campus and got all of our financial aid and our job applications sorted out! Good news! Another check for 1700 dollars will be coming in the mail! As well as 3000 dollars in Federal work study money!  After all of that was sorted out we started out on our grocery shopping!
1. Summer gets her new laptop!
2. Off to Fry's to get $1.88 hamburger to last us a lifetime...
3. We went to Wal Mart to get some school supplies and all of our cleaning supplies!
(and lots of snacks)
4. Bashas! Strawberries and frozen pizza! Oh yes and peaches!
5. Home... Ugh!
We were so tired when we got home that we all just sat on the bed while Breanne swam laps! Crazy!

While we were at Best Buy, however, we were parked next to this car that well...words cannot describe!  Only pictures can...


Tonight we are going to watch a movie and relax! Our cable guy is coming tomorrow and then we should be all set! Bring it on school!

Early Morning Hours... Sort Of

Breezy here, it's about 9:00am with no signs of life coming from Chelsey, Monet, or Summer. I'm guessing they all stayed up pretty late; I turned in around 10pm.

The other day Chelsy and I were talking about how weird it was to come from homes where there is a constant rumble of noise to an apartment where we have to turn on fans or the dryer because it's too quiet for us. Right now is one of those times, LOL.

Well, this is my first post on a blog EVER so l hope it looks okay, I have no idea how this whole blogging thing works out. With new roommates comes new experiences I guess. :)

I'm off to ride my bike around campus to find the mysterious math building; wish me luck!

The Girls are Here!

Summer and Monet showed up today and after about 4 trips to Wal Mart, some wood glue, and a lot of sweat, we are ALL MOVED IN!  We finally have our desired couch cover, our cute decorations in the living room, the girls beds set up, and our movie/pizza/birthday party to break in the place!  It's so awesome that we have such good and helpful friends like Zach and Riley to help move all the heavy stuff and to do the hammering! (except Summer did that pretty well herself) :)
    Tomorrow is day two of errands! And Summer says we are all going to work out...we'll see how that goes! Altogether though, we are about to set out on the biggest adventure of our lives yet! It's crazy! And we are loving it!
