Spectrum Photo Shoot

So a couple months ago, a friend of mine asked me to be in a recruitment video they were shooting and to be in a photo shoot afterward. So I did. :) It was all done in the Spectrum and unfortunately I was sick, so pretty sure I sounded like a man and looked super tired, but a couple pictures turned out nice. Here are some of my favorites:

I even got to take some with my good friend Erin Whyte!!! (or The Erin as she is known in our house)


Then we took some overlooking the Spectrum and I thought they looked cool. Too bad some guys are playing basketball. Who knew you could just show up and play on the court? I sure didn't.

Life is so busy!...but I love it!!!

So I just got back on Sunday from the best Spring Break ever. I went with three of my friends to the WAC tournament in Reno, Nevada and watched USU's basketball team win all their games to become the champions and get a bid to the NCAA tournament. They were alotted 11th seed and will be playing Marquette in Boise on Friday. Now, they are really good, but I am being told that it is a very winnable game for a variety of factors in our favor. Hopefully, it's true. Sadly, I will not be attending since I am super poor, but I will be watching and cheering from the TSC on campus!

My new favorite hang out place in Logan is a new ice cream/frozen yogurt shop called Yummi Tummi's. It was opened by three former USU basketball players and is the coolest place ever. It is self serve ice cream that you can then put toppings on and pay by the oz. They have a room attached that has lots of seating, a bunch of tvs, some game tables, and TONS of pictures on all the walls, honoring all sorts of Aggie sports. However, being true to their basketball history, the owners dedicated one whole wall to an enlarged version of this year's team poster. I've been to a couple events there and have been very impressed each time. It's about time Logan had a place like this.

I am currently trying to find a place to live for the summer and next school year. A couple of my friends and I have decided to live together and all but one of us already do, so we know it will be ok. :) Or at least should be. It's so disheartening though to look at how much it will cost, know how much school will cost next year, and know that I have TONS of work to do this summer to be able to afford it. This school thing is ridiculously expensive. And thanks to budget cuts, it's only becoming increasingly so. I hate money...and the fact that I need lots of it and have very little of it. So stressful.


There are only 6 1/2 weeks left of school, including finals! This year has gone by so fast! After these next few weeks, I will be officially half way done with my undergraduate degree! Crazy!!! It's so weird how fast time goes by. However, I am enjoying every bit of it. My classes are awesome, my new major is interesting and things just seem to fall into place when they need to.
Life is great. Difficult but totally worth it.
