this year was ANYTHING but what i expected.
i left home in august again having no idea what the school year would bring.
all my closest friends from my freshman year had left on missions over the summer, i was moving into a new apartment complex, and i had literally no clue who my new roommates were going to be.
so let's just start at the beginning!!
i moved into my new apartment and met my new roommates, who all immediately intimidated me because they were already friends. but i loved them right off the bat.
seriously, these girls blessed my life beyond belief this year and i am so grateful that i was placed in apartment 23 with these smart, beautiful, strong and loving girls.
school didn't start until tuesday, and so we knew we HAD to do something fun on that monday, our last day of freedom before the school. the problem??
NONE OF US HAD CARS.
what are the odds that SIX girls move into the same apartment and NONE of them have cars?!
so obviously we made some fast friends and somehow convinced them that it would be fun to drive 3 hours away to sand hollow state park and go cliff jumping.
so that is just what we did.
next up, first day of school!
i was officially a sophomore in college. WEIRD.
!
we had decided pretty early on that we wanted to camp out for the BYU vs Utah football game because it was going to be the hardest game to get good seats at.
so my cute new roommate mynette and i slept in a parking lot all night long and then BYU lost the game and it wasn't really worth it to camp out, except for maybe the free ice cream(;
school started up and it was not going to be easy hahah so here's a picture of me doing what i do best...school...
i literally laugh so hard every time i see this picture because it's me doing homework at a freaking birthday party like WHAT the HECK lindsey but hey, gotta do what ya gotta do i guess hahah
took a couple of temple trips with my roomie daniela(((:
took a quick little trip to lava hot springs with daniela and mynette.
seriously, such a cute little town!!
& then drove straight back to tooele to go to the lantern festival with ellie and sophia!!
back at it with the studying. seriously, anatomy was one of the hardest but most rewarding classes i have ever and probably will ever take at BYU. i loved every minute of it.
more football games, this time with cute mynette again and SAVANNAH from back home in washington!! they are the cutest people and i love them both so much!!!
drove up the canyon during the fall for the first time ever a couple times!!
went on a TON hikes in the dark, late at night....not the smartest maybe, but still the most fun.
ran a 5k for extra credit in anatomy with my favorite roommate ellie! extra credit in anatomy makes you do the weirdest things, but at least i like running still(;
next up, my TWENTIETH birthday!!
my roommates are the very best and got me the only thing i wanted: golden balloons for my golden birthday!!
went to corn belly's which has the WORST corn maze ever, but it's still a good time
daniela opened her mission call which was the saddest and happiest day ever!! brazil is lucky to have her even though i'm sad she's gone now.
watched our friend's intramural soccer team a couple times!
did some facemasks that made us look like aliens hahah and also made it so that daniela and alyson couldn't smile apparently...
somehow survived 7 am anatomy lab with my girl ellie!! & sophia took it too, we just never took a picture//:
went disco skating a couple times!!! my favorite thing to do honestly
went on some more hikes((:
reunited with my best friend hailey after over 2.5 years apart!!
surprised my family and friends at thanksgiving!! seriously, one of the highlights of my entire life.
& then headed back to utah to take some finals and help ellie, sophia, and daniela move out of apartment 23 to get ready to leave on their missions///:
i love these girls so much and am so grateful for everything i have learned this semester! bring on winter 2018!!!
