Things to do when you have an hour between classes...

1) Be productive. Go to the library and do homework. (Not preferable)
2) Sit at the fountain outside of the TSC and read. The roar of the fountain shuts everyone else.
3) Go to the hub and eat a bagel. They is good :)
4) Grab a Utah Statesman and read up on campus events. Usually.. there's not anything going on.
5) Take a nap on the grass. (Good for catching up on sleep and a kickin suntan)
6) (And becoming my favorite...) Wander aimlessly around campus. This accomplishes multiple things...
-Exercise for the day
-Familiarity with campus
-Finding out random, hidden, peaceful places to chill.
-LOTS of thinking time.
You come to find that walking from one side of campus and back wastes a pretty good amount of time...

Haha I just thought I'd start a list. Pretty soon though, I'm gonna have to find out what to do in the winter... But for right now, the fall is suiting me just fine :)

None of those things is what beetles eat... Try again!

Just your average update, guys.
I never really have anything super cool to blog about.
My roommates are pretty super cool.

We do things like get Aggie Ice Cream for birthdays, read each other children's books, go for late-night chocolate milk and cookies run, destroy our neighbor's facebooks, and other such fun things.

This is one of my best friends...


His roommate...


And a puddle.

We hiked yesterday.

Welp, speaking of BEST FRIENDS...
My best friend ALEXIS came down to visit for the weekend :)
We went to Chili's, gave a waiter our (um, I mean, MY) number(s), went a-shopping, randomly decided to chop my hair off, spent a fair amount of time at Walmart (my favorite place. IN. THE WHOLE. WORLD.) (Please note the sarcasm.) Had a sleepover on the floor of my apartment, Alexis getting a parking ticket (sorry), "I only went 80!", watched Batman Begins, Bride Wars, and Breakfast at Tiffany's, colored, and ate Oreo's. I've missed my best friend :(
That was fun. We did lots of cool things :) Sadly enough... No pictures... Oh well.

Oh. And I have decided to change my major to Elementary Education.
:D
Liiifeeee is goooooooood!

Hi. My name is Kaitlin... And I love college.

First off, I attended my first home game.
It was... AWESOME.
So much fun.
I loved...
Every second of it.
Well mostly.




Yeah, I think it's cool that Zack and I are still so tight.

Sometimes, I hang out with people like this...



And sometimes... I hang out with people like this.These are my cool beans roommates.
They're cool.
If you're wondering what we're doing in this picture, we're playing the role of "awkward family".
I'm the silent, intimidating father.
Rachel is the crazy inquisitive mother.
Alison is the obnoxious little sister.
And Sarah is the victim.
MUAHAHAHA.


Yeah, I'm having fun. :)

Partyin, Partyin, Yes.

So. Last night, my roommates and some of our neighbors went to Logan Canyon.
Wanna know what inspired it?
So Casey (yellow hoodie) and Alan (Creepin into the first picture) come over. We're all just chillin, and I wanted a s'more, so I was like "Hey. I have s'mores stuff. Let's make some s'mores." And they were like "...Kay."
So then, after roasting the marshmallows over the stove and deciding we could do a little bit better, we decided that Logan Canyon was the way.

It was so fun :]
I love campfires.


My job was to hold the flashlight. :]


Roomiess!.... And Alan.


Haha. Casey was trying to get us to do this all night. I finally did...


Align Center
This one turned out a little better.


First home football game toNIGHT....
Awh yeah :]

I'm a big kid now...

Okay sooo.. I've had to refrain from blogging lately.
Cause I am in college now.
And my internet sucks.
It takes wayyyy too long to do anything besides check my email and occasionally do some FB.

So I waited till I was home!!
I've only been gone for a week...
But I wanted to come back and visit cause it'd be the last chance I got till my parents came back from Nauvoo, so it'd be another like 3 or 4 weeks until I could come back.
Nobody knew I was coming except my mom, dad, grandma, and Alexis.
I surprised everyone haha :]

College is sooo fun. I've met so many people and made so many new friends! So far, there's been something fun to do every night. Unfortunately, I haven't really picture-cated a lot of what has happened. I forget to let my camera tag along =/
I'm learning lots of lessons...

1) Some people, no matter how good of friends you thought they were, will always abandon you for someone or something they think is better. The lesson here is to avoid relying on these people when hard times (such as, say, moving away from home) come along.

2) My parents are the best! Before I left, my mom and I kind of butted heads... A lot. But since I left I call and talk to her every day, sometimes for a half hour or longer. I'm so grateful that we built that relationship as I was growing up so that I have now and forever will have a permanent best friend. When I came home, I cried when I saw both her and my dad just because I was so happy to see them.
I honestly don't remember a time when I haven't been able to hold back tears of joy...
Ok that's probably not true.
But still, I can hold it in pretty well.

3) My brothers are awesome.
I love them so dearly! They are also my best friends. I adore them. A lot.

4) It's sooo important to have your own testimony. When you move out, it's easy to say "my parents aren't here, I can do this cause they won't be mad." And fall away. Not saying that I've experienced this personally, but I can see in my classmates how easy it was for them to, as soon as they got the boot, stop doing what they were taught to do.

5) The concept of "Studying" actually does apply in college.
Majorly.

6) I made some very good friends that I will treasure and cherish for the rest of my life when I lived at home! I hope those friends never fade away.

7) Heavenly Father loves me!! A lot. A lot a lot.
I have such a great life :]
