What am I doing with my Life?! UPDATE...

So, I can't believe how fast this semester has gone by. It seems since I am graduating in April and my days in Rexburg are becoming fewer and fewer, that they are going by faster and faster. What I'm saying is, I can't believe Christmas is in two weeks!!!!!! I can remember thinking over the summer about this year and the two semesters of college I had left to hopefully get my life somewhat figured out. Well, I'm now down to about one and I still don't know what the heck I'm going to do with my life after graduation. I think some people have it easier than others when graduation rolls around, and I feel that I am not one of them. I will be graduating with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Child Development. It is such a broad degree so it's hard to say what I am going to do when I graduate. People are asking me that question a lot lately, and I just keep telling them, "ya know, I'm not quite sure." Which I hate saying, but I have nothing else to say because I really don't know?!?! I've always had a pretty good plan and idea of what my next step in life was going to be. Right now, I got nothin' and it's kind of freakin' me out! My plan after graduation is just to go home for now. My best friend, Abby, has been wanting to move down to Salt Lake together and work down there. This is an option, but I don't have a job, which means no money, which means bad news. So, until then, my parents house it is.

Halloween

I know this is very late, and old news by now, but I told mom I would post some pictures from Halloween.

So on Halloween my two roommates that I am closest with decided to ditch me and go out with two boys, lame I know. They made these plans the night before, around 10 pm. Before that, we were all planning on hanging out... Well, I had talked to some other friends prior to them ditching me, and had kind of planned to hang out with them. So it kind of just worked out that I was ditched anyway, cause I got to hang out with other people.

I ended up going with those friends to a party down in Idaho Falls. I think it was some kind of Institute party or something, because it was in the church right next to the I.F. Temple. Either way, it was the {coolest} church party I've ever been to! They decorated it all over in the gym and hallways. There was food, sumo wrestling, jousting, bungie basketball, and boxing. PLUS, pictures, kareoke, ping-pong, air hockey, a haunted hallway (awesome), and video games. It was a pretty sweet party.

Most of the group before going to the party in Idaho Falls
Me and Brian, a cowgirl and a cowboy
The girls-Cowgirl and Indians

After that party we came back to Rexburg and went to a party at one of the apartments up here. It was really lame. It was outside and it was raining, so it sucked basically. We just decided to go back to the girls apartment and eat pizza and watch a scary movie. Overall, my Halloween was really fun.

Going home & huntin' bunnies

Last weekend I went home and spent the weekend with my family and friends. It was great to see them all again. It's only been about a month, but I still miss my friends from back home. It was also Conference weekend, which can I add, was AMAZING. I truly love this gospel and know I definitely take it granted way too often in my life. Listening to the leaders of this church was very inspiring and just what I needed right now!

Monday night after FHE Britt and I took Fuzzy, Jason, and TC some treats. We ended up chatting with Fuzzy for a while and somehow got on the topic of shooting... then we decided we wanted to go spotlighting for rabbits. So we did. Fuzzy, Britt, TC, and I left around 9:45 and went out passed "R" Mountain. The first road we turned on we saw a bunny. Fuzzy and TC quickly stopped the truck and grabbed their guns. I guess it's illegal to go spotlighting... so we were trying to get away from the highway. Well, they missed the bunny, so we started driving to look for more, and low and behold a big semi is less than 75 yards away on the highway! Haha, we were all very surprised at how close we were... so we ended up driving further west and found another dirt road. We stopped a few times to walk around and look for bunnies, but we didn't have any luck at all. The only bunnies we saw was while we were in the truck, so the boys had to stop the truck and run after the bunny with their guns in hand. It was a funny sight. After we got tired of searching and not finding anything, the guys let Britt and I shoot some stuff. It was fun, but I'm a terrible shot. I'm going to blame it on the fact that I have really bad eyes. Haha.
