Home!

I came home on allegiant air, it flies straight from Idaho Falls to Mesa! Let me tell ya, I am never going back to driving, the plane ride was 1 1/2 hours instead of 5 hrs to the SLC airport and then flying home. My wonderful family came and picked me up (mom, dad, ally, ashley, and brooke) and we went to eat at Oreganos! It felt so good to have real food, I used up too much money at the beginning of my semester so I ended up eating PB sandwiches and cereal for like 2 weeks. Then the next day we went to Slide Rock! I love that place, did dad follow through on the tradition and rip his shorts again you ask? Nope! He wore two pairs and they both survived.

We picked blackberries by the bridge and I ate a few...then dad said that people pee onto them from the top of the bridge and I lost my appetite. We had a perfect spot right by the end of the slippery slide and saw enough wipe outs to give my abs a work out, people never learn that it is not a good idea to walk on algae...who doesn't know that? ha

Other highlights of the week:
*Harry Potter 7 Part 2-Best movie ever!
*hiking
*Mimi's cafe

We went to wet and wild this Saturday and it was so fun, Me, mom, dad, and Ally went during the day and came home and then Brooke, Ally, and I went back and went on one ride before lightening started and the park closed down. Good news is...we got a rain check so we can go back sometime next week.

Sadly, Ashley had to go back to Hawaii last Monday, and I will miss her!! I am glad that I was able to come home early enough to see her for a couple days though.

So my roommates were obsessed with HP. Very Obsessed. (Don't get me wrong I loved them, it was just funny) Some facts about the semester:

*we watched at least 2 HP movies a week
*Each room in our apartment was a different house (Slytherin, Griffindor, etc)
*they had authentic wands purchased online
*The Hogwarts crest resided in our living room

Have they converted me? maybe. I probably know every spell there is now, so I would watch out if I were you...

Palladio Escala

I took a ballet class from my amazing teacher up at byui and she told me about the collegiate dance team doing a ballet/clogging dance, and so I joined the dance! It sounds like a weird combo, but it looked really cool. There were SO many rehearsals, but the end result and being on stage again was worth it, it was tons of fun!

The end of this semester was such a relief! I got a lot of hard classes out of the way though and next semester should be easy! I am going to be a lab TA for my Anat & Phys teacher. I am so excited to be roommates with Jill, Lyndee, Katie, and Shelly this semester. I will have my own room, which will be weird. I kind of like having a roommate to stay up late talking to. Anyway-this semester overall was a success and I loved my harry potter loving roommates and will miss them so much!
