one week down.

so I live in rexburg. this is my life:  

I wear sunglasses when it's 15 degrees outside. fyi, the snow is ridiculously bright. 

My first week of classes went really well. I thoroughly enjoy all my professors. no duds in that bunch. they are all really engaging and teach their subjects really well. 

Here's my room

I love my ikea pillows. thanks aunt megan for the hand-me-down-comforter

Some highlights of the week include:

• Staying up way too late every night chatting with the roommates.   
• Going to dinner with Emily's family Sunday night. 
• Spending hours in the quiet floor of the library. Oh man. I love that place. It was productivity central.
• Making stir fry, yummy salads, orange chicken, roasted potatoes, and eating peanut butter and bananas while watching psych on my laptop.
• Going swing dancing with Kayla for her birthday.
• This trail mix.

One time I put it in my salad , forgetting there were chocolate chips.
I ate salad with chocolate this week, be jealous.

• Grandma jan caramel popcorn.
• Stupid movie friday with the roomates.
• Snow cones.

•  Elk stew/cupcake/birthday party for Emily  We had a few friends come over and laughed so hard. Between Rachel's crazy stalker stories, crazy cat lady conversations (including watching the I Really Love Cats video on youtube) and talking about all of our future husbands, we had a blast. 

I think I can deem my first week at BYUI as a success. Let me leave you with the funniest picture I've seen in a long time.

Drop whatever you're doing, guys. This is a baby kangaroo in pajamas.
