New.

This summer was probably the best of my life. After my senior year concluded I spent three long months hanging out with my best friends, and sending lots of boys on missions! The end of August showed up unannounced and brought many goodbyes, and also the biggest hello of my life. I said goodbye to many old friends as they moved all over the state or country for college and missions. Goodbye to my family (who is really only ten minutes from where i live now, but for story's sake) and the house I have lived in for 11 years.  Goodbye to the comfort and security that comes with being a child.  Hello to the college of my dreams. To the place I have been visiting since I was young.  Hello to the hundreds of new opportunities and people that meet me at my doorstep.
College life is hard. Or so they say, I mean, school just started on Tuesday so what do I know? But I have had a blast in the mere week and a half that I have been living on the third floor that overlooks the beautiful campus shaded by the mountains that have watched over my home for my whole life.  Not being able to put tape on the walls is a downer for sure, but I found a way to adorn my room with many BYU sports posters and trinkets I have picked up over the years. Already this small bedroom that I share is beginning to become a home for me.
Speaking of BYU sports (or was that just me?) a few days ago I met two of the players on the BYU basketball team, which I absolutely adore! I met Erik Mika, a 6'9" freshman from lone peak.  I think I came up to his armpit...

But my dream come true was meeting Tyler Haws, who I have been watching since he played in High School at Lone Peak!  He even tossed me a basketball which is now sitting proudly on the top shelf of my desk :)

Ah, I love it here!

And, that is what I know.
