My adventure to ID and an update of college...

i've been crazy busy. haha. i have even updated this thing in forever. my bad...
Anyways...
geoff and i drove up to ID from TX. that was quite the adventure. here are some pics from our trip:







packing up to leave!
























it
took us almost 6 HOURS to get out of TX from Dallas. it was pretty much cruel and unusual punishment... lol













boredom!!!




































i LOVE clouds :)














pretty much lived on these, peanut m&m&m's, and water. lol. it was fun!






























i loved this room SO much!
















i totally felt my Savior's love. it was amazing :)






























hehehe, shhhh....















geoff had fun taking pics like these

































this is so precious

















the Joseph Smith lobby. my future castle will look like that. lol















i was 26 floors up!
hey look! there's a wedding! shocker...hehe































haha...yeah...






















i believe this is the original! it's about as long as a truck thingy! like the ones that you pull your arm and they honk. lol




























stuck at the auto shop. mindy needed a doctor...















waiting for the tram











































geoff tried to make buttermilk pie. the climate change wasn't in his favor... it was food though. lol

















toni went with us to this is the place. it was pretty fun










i have also been cliff jumping off of a 30ft cliff! it was terrifying and SO cold. lol. but i needed to do it at least once. don't think i'll ever do it from that height again though... maybe 20ft...haha.
my classes are pretty good. i really like my professors, which is always a good thing. i'm such a procrastinator when it comes to homework. need to work on that. i got a calling as the RS chorister :) it's harder work than it looks, but very rewarding to be able to set the spirit for the meeting. you know? i love it! i got a letter from jakob carstens! it was awesome! totally made my week :D and i talk to sister G on the phone pretty much everyday, even if it's just for less than 3mins. rebecca, my roomie roommate, is pretty cool. she's 21 and from long beach, CA. she and i are the oldest out of the 6 of us and at first i was worried about rooming with her, but i don't think i'd be happier any other way :) 3 of my roommates and i went latin dancing one night and then a couple weeks later we dressed up and went to an off-campus 80's dance. it wasn't that exciting so emily and diane went home while rebecca and i went to another private dance party, which turned out to be SO much more fun. we got whistled at and everything walking to and from the dances in our getup. haha. we were hyper so it was fun!
we also went to get our hair done a couple of weeks ago! it was my first time getting my hair cut in a salon and i was nervous, but i think it turned out quite nicely. this past weekend was general conference. i watched all 4 and loved them! it snowed last night and today as well! craziness... but i think it's already melting. that doesn't stop those TX, AZ, CA, NM...kids from building snowmen and making snow angels. haha. i love the first snow! well, when it actually stays. i think it's so magical! and even though i dread having to walk in it to classes, i can't help but smile :)
i have to go do homework now...
