Its been a while!

WOW! College sure does keep you busy. I have now been up at BYU for about 9 months. That is a lot of school, but I have LOVED every minute of it. It certainly is nothing like high school. Classes require a lot of work, but it is worth it. This semester is defiantly a lighter load than last semester. I am only taking 13 credits and working 20 hours a week at the Law School. Its hard to believe that there are less than 50 days left in the semester, then it is home to California for Spring and Summer term to work and replenish the bank account! I love it up here at BYU, but I am excited to go home and have a break from school. I was thinking about it the other day and realized that I have been going to school for 19 months straight (since Aug 2008, the beginning of my senior year)...that is A LOT of school!! But dont worry I have been doing lots of fun things too!

So here is a quick look back at the past 6 Months. ENJOY!!
