So I've been at BYU-Idaho for about a month now. It's been so fun!(and really hard).
I;m majoring in Interior Design..which is not just pillow fluffing! Interior Design is intensee. So if any of you reading this have a pre-conception about what it is..keep your mouths shut..because its much more than you think. Interior Designers are like architects for interiors. We have to know so so soo much about business, color, lighting, plumbing, proportion and scale, psychology, aesthetics, vision, furniture, current styles...everything! Interior Designers have to think about people at ALL times. Oh...and we have to be great artists too. Now is that pillow fluffing?! uhhhhh...no. Interior Design is one of the hardest majors on this campus..next to nursing. I know that's hard to believe..but i'm in an intense program. But its a good thing that I enjoy is, or else I'd be out of here.
Oh yeah...and did I mention that I'm the youngest one in the program? In my Presentation class a few weeks ago, my teacher, Brother Parson asked any 17 year olds to raise their hands...and then he giggled..as if that would be the craziest thing. (as if 17 year olds are diseased or something...or are actually babies) I decided to raise my hand..and spark some interest in the class..literally everyone in the class gasped. "Oh my goshhhh!!! You're 17?!" uhhhh..yeah. I am. (Actually not anymore..because my birthday was yesterday! ) But seriously...its just weird that people are so shocked of age here. You're ..what? 2 months older than me? OMG! that makes you so much wiser than I am! 2 whole months....hmm. I'm such a baby compared to you.
I seriously hate when people look down on me because of my late birthday. It doesn't mean anything...except that I got accepted into college at a younger age than all of you guyss. And that's pretty cool. :) soooooooooooo....wow i got off on a tangent. but anywayss
Anyways! My Birthday was yesterdayyyyy on the 8th of October. :) Which is actually the same day as my roommates birthday. So you wanna know what we did? Huge extravaganza? yess!
It was really fun. luckily i only had like one class that day ( and it was a friday! so i had to dance....and if any of you don't know what Dance Friday is...well its a ritual...where you DANCE..because its FRIDAYYYY. hehehe its the best holiday ever. AND it occurs every weeek )
anywhoo...so my lovely friend Michelle took me out for some ice cream..and my roommates decorated the dorm and gave me and Ariel a "heart attack" where hearts were taped everywhere. it was way cute :) Then we went out to dinner at Craigo's and had pizza/pasta/salad buffet..so it was good. Then I came back and called my parents (and andrea) so we could talk :) and Thennn...there was a surprise! Ariel and I were making guesses at to what it could be...but we had no idea! Finally we were allowed to come outside and there was a princess pinata! A few weeks earlier, we had all decided which princesses we could be...and I happened to be Giselle from 'Enchanted' :) she's sooo cute! haha i love her. so all of the princesses were on the castle pinata. it was so cute! Ariel and I each got to pull a string from the bottom and finally it fell open and delicious candy fell out! (i loveeeeeeeee candy hehehe) It was greatt. We then had cupcakes and we made wishes, and watched....'Enchanted'!! (that was a coincidence though) However..Erika called me, so I didn't get to watch the whole thing, but I'm happy I got to talk to my fabulous sister (and brother James!)
Overall..I had a fabulous birthdayy! The hardest part though...is waiting for mail to come. I know I have packages coming...and that they're at the school...but I can't get to them for another couple of days because the warehouse isn't opened. So.........I have to wait. Which is saddd :(
But it's okay because I know that they're here. :) I guess you could say that I'm pretty excited!
BYU-Idaho is so awesome. I got to celebrate my birthday here with my AWESOME roommates and FHE sisters (which are my neighbors! :) ) They're all sooo sweet and nice and I just love them to death. I love the spirit that is ere at this school and that we start every class with a prayer. It's just exciting to go to a school that has a high academic and religious program too. Yay college! There's so much work though....but its okay!
Anywayss...thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes, it was awesome!
