Fall Days are Happy Days!

So yesterday was the Homecoming football game and about 3 minutes into the second quarter it started pouring super cold rain. So being the fair weather football fans that we are, we left! We decided what we really needed to warm up was a bowl of soup from Great Harvest. So off we went! I got a bowl of the tomato raveoli soup in a cute pumpkin bread bowl!!

See! There it is!!! It was super delicious and a lot of fun. I love Great Harvest. It's yummy and super cheap. :)


So because it's starting to get closer to winter time and because I love Fall soo much, I have been taking pictures of the trees and the colors before all the leaves fall the trees just look dead. Because I basically spend my whole life on campus, most of these pictures are from campus.


These are the same trees but at a different angle so you can see how they're actually a super pretty orange color!


This is a tree at the end of the drive way to my parking lot. I snapped this on my way to school one morning.


This one I took out a window (obviously) from the student center looking out onto the TSC patio. It's soo pretty!


Today it's cold and rainy again but I don't really mind because I don't have to go outside today! Well, besides walking (or running) to my car, into the church building, back to my car, and into the apartment...maybe a couple other times but that's about it. Tomorrow when I'm walking to school, I may not like it quite as much! haha Good thing I have my cute new umbrella! :)

So much excitement!

Look at what was in the Statesman today (the USU newspaper).......


Yup! The Basketball insert!!! You know what that means?! Basketball season is right around the corner!!!! One week from Saturday! That's like... 12 days! bah! I can hardly wait.

This week is also Homecoming Week and I am sooo excited!!! There are so many fun things that happen. Tonight there is a paint dance, although I'm pretty sure it's glow in the dark dust this year, not paint. huh. Then Tuesday they're showing a movie, Wednesday it's Mr.USU, Thursday there's a Luau, Friday is the Homecoming Dance along with True Aggie night (not that it really matters...), Saturday is the Homecoming Game, and there's lots of free food all week and fun things going on. It's one of the best weeks of the semester!

Go Aggies!!!!

Lazy Day

Today has been one of the laziest days I have had in a while and it has felt soo good! Until 1:30 pm, I did not make my bed (I know!!), put away my laundry that I washed yesterday (still breathing?), shower, get dressed and put on make up...I'm still working on getting my hair done. It might not if I don't have to go anywhere today. It has been fantastic, liberating, and full of Gilmore Girls and talking to friends who have moved away. What more could a girl on Fall Break want?!

Girls Night was super, super fun! The movie was amazing too. Got an A- in my opinion! (the minus for some..well PG 13 material that I didn't really appreciate) It was fantastic. I cried multiple times (that's right, I'm not afraid to admit it!) I highly recommend it.


So yesterday I went to an Aggie soccer game and got a glasses tan line on my face. It's really attractive. But you know what, I don't mind. It was so nice to just sit on the grass, watching a good game and having the sun beat down on me while the temperature was only 70ish degrees. Another reason why I am in love with Fall! The weather during the day is perfect. The leaves have faded in the canyons but in the valley they are finally turning bright yellows and vibrant reds. It's so so so pretty!!! They're starting to fall a little but right now it just accentuates the essence of Fall rather than looking dead. Here's a little look at what I get to see outside my window.


This doesn't come close to doing it justice. It's super pretty! and yes, I can sometimes see into the apartments across the stream. Nothing awkward has been seen and I keep my blinds closed :) Well, when it's important to have them closed of course.

Now I have to go start making flash cards for my Kinesiology class. My teacher really kicked it into gear on Thursday and I feel a little overwhelmed with everything that I need to learn. So here I go! Off to be more productive on my lazy day.

Fall Break!!!!

After a couple of super intense weeks at school, we are granted the privilege of Fall Break. This is not like Spring Break, although the name does elude to it. It's one day that we get off. One day! The U gets the whole week. Like, you know, Spring Break in the Fall. Not that I'm that upset. I really am super, super excited to have a three day weekend.

Tonight we have an A-Team Girls Night Out! We are going to eat at Gia's (an Italian restaurant that has been close forever and just reopened this summer) and then going to see "Life as We Know It". I'm pretty excited for this! We all become such good friends during the summer and then school starts and we rarely see each other! Well, not all of us, but there are some of my A-Team ladies who I haven't seen in way too long! So it will be so fun to see each other and get some yummy Italian food (my favorite!) and go see what I hope will be an awesome chick flick (also my favorite).

Then tomorrow is Fall Break and dang it, I'm sleeping in! It's going to be great! Then I'll probably have to do some studying at some point this weekend...but probably not tomorrow. I'm going to take the whole day off! Saturday will be back to business. I am so excited for my one day break!
