COUNTRY MUSIC

I don't know how many people know this...but I love country music.  Reason one, because I grew up on it.  (Thanks to Dad's country phase.)  Reason two, it's very entertaining to listen to.  ("Red Solo Cup")  Plus they sing about simple things.  Breaking up, falling in love, getting drunk.  Somethings so simple and yet artists like Tim McGraw, Brad Paisley, and, of course, Taylor Swift.  They have gifts.  Unlike pop, they don't go techno or auto tune.  They stick to their own voices and their own voices.  It's amazing.  Sorry those who are anti-country, but you are truly missing out.  Country is amazing in and of itself.  I'm a country girl through and through!

ROOMMATES

Well, I told you I'd stay up and I will.  Not too bad right?  Anyway, my last post was so off.  Not even kidding, that was just insecure babble from me.  This past week could not have been more amazing.  My roommates Charly, Emily, Cali, Racheal and Kristine could not be better I could not have asked for better roommates.  We've been on the town, around the school, and yes, having movie nights in our dorm.  Why?  Because we are that amazing.  I fetching love every single one of them.  I can't wait to get to know each of them more over the next year.  The end of it will be a sad one because we will all go different ways.  As for now, we will continue our party.  Freshman year will be a good one.  I can feel it already, all thanks to all my fantastic roommates.

COLLEGE LIFE

Wow, I fail horribly at keeping this up.  Sorry if anyone has been missing me! (Crickets chirping in the background.)  Anyway, well I'm growing up.  As you can see in the title and probably know already I have moved out of my home and am now living in a dorm on the Utah State University campus.  I'm living with 6 other girls and to top it off we all share one small bathroom.  If it weren't for all the storage space and all of us seeming normal, things would not be going well.  My room has been decorated and organized and not that messy yet, but it is only the second day.  I've spent most of the day, today, in the dorm.  I think I'll go wander around, but I doubt there's anyone around.  Everyone's probably gone home or to church or doing their own things.  That's what all my roommates have done.  All of them, it seems, came up with their best friends....and me with no one.  We all get along great, but I can never find anything to say.  Of course I don't want to be that roommate who's a loner and everything, but I also don't want to be the annoying roommate always bugging everyone.  I can't seem to find that middle spot.  What I have been doing is saying hi, asked a few questions and try to get involved in conversations.  I don't barge in or anything, but for the most part I have been kinda keeping to myself.  Credit to myself I have been trying.  Our kitchen is nice and organized, we have so much in there I'm being sent home with some of my stuff because there is just so much! We all managed to double everything we needed.  At least we aren't without much.  Fans are needed because it has been so hot the past couple days.  Logan? Hot? I know I was confused too, but it's better than freezing.  All in all I can see this all leading up to a pretty good year.  Still feels weird to not be sleeping in my own bed and everything, but hopefully I'll get a better nights sleep tonight.  More coming soon!  Welcome to College Life!
