I am finally settled into my apartment. I said goodbye to my mom & best friend who came all the way up here with me to drop me off. I have met all my roommates. So I guess you can say I'm officially a college student.
Our trip up here was pretty intense. My mom & Karoline came up to drop me off. My favorite part of the trip was when we went to temple square 2 nights before coming to Idaho. Karoline was really interested in all the things that we were seeing & talking about. Karoline has been my best friend for 8 years & she has gone to church with me maybe 3 times. I never invited her because she's very critical. For her to believe something, she has to see it with her own eyes. A big part of our church is based on the concept of Faith, which she hasn't developed yet. But the happy part is she actually agreed to talk to the missionaries back at home because she wants to learn more about it. Now I'm not saying she is going to get baptized anytime soon, but it was such an awesome feeling that she actually wants to learn more & likes the way the church works. I'm so happy I was able to share the experience with her because I knew she felt the Spirit while we were there.
Campus. BYU-Idaho is so pretty. I'm so happy to be attending this beautiful school where everyone has the same standards as me & all get along (for the most part). I've always heard the BYUI is a small campus but honestly, if this is a small campus, then I would be screwed at a big campus. I've gone around maybe like 3 times & I' still not quite sure how to get to my classes. Maybe I can ask cute boys where they are on the first day ;) I absolutely love it here.
Let's talk roommates now. So remember that one post about my roommates? Yeah, well the rooms got rearranged. Natasha & Michelle are still in my apartment but now we have another freshman Caylie, who is my roommate, & we then we have a sophomore & a senior. All in all, I'm so happy with the people that ended up in my apartment. I get along really well with Natasha & Michelle, but it's awkward sometimes when they talk about people back at home & I just sit there cause I have no idea who they are talking about. Caylie is....not as outgoing as we are. She is quiet, but she can have a conversation with you if you start talking to her. She is really nice but is really focused on her studying, which I am too, but let's be honest, having fun & meeting boys is high on my priority list. My older roommates are always in & out so I hardly see them so I don't have much to say about them, but they seem. I'm pretty stoked on how it all turned out.
BOYS BOYS BOYS! I can't fathom how many cute boys go here. I am in love. Most of them are also like the sweetest. I don't think I have yet to hold a door open for myself. I was kinda freaking out the first day because a boy had yet to talk to me & I thought that was supposed to happen immediately. But tonight we had this even called I-Night which is where they had a whole bunch of activities & games set up. It was a lot of fun & a great way to meet people. I got my first phone number!! They had a speed dating area set up so I obviously went & the first guy was super nice. He asked where I lived & then he told me he bakes bread & that he was going to bring me some. I'm really hoping he does because he was super cute. The next boy was also really nice & super cute. We had some things in common & then asked for my number so we could hang out sometime! The crazy thing about him is that he just got back from his mission a week ago! It's crazy that most of these guys are RM. I guess we will see if he ever does text me.
The dance was WILD! All I need to say is that my big toe nail basically got ripped off & is now bleeding & it hurts horribly. But it was totally worth. Cute boys & asked to dance with us so I was a happy camper.
I honestly don't know how I'm writing this right now because I have gotten approx. 10 hours of sleep in the past 2 days & church is at 9 aka I have to get up at 7. I'm super pumped to meet my ward & hoping to meet some cool people. Hoping I will soon have some fun stories to write.
