When I got my knee brace my PT told me I should use it for at least a year. Well, it's been a year. I have stopped using it for volleyball. It has felt totally fine so far. I still haven't taken it off to play basketball, and I think it will be awhile until that happens. But I LOVE not having my brace on. Hopefully things will keep improving!
Also, today was my last day observing Springville Junior High. I am exhausted. It was fun and I realized things that I would love to do in my own classroom and things that I wouldn't. We are going to Timpanogos High School in a week, so I get a week off! So, no school for me Monday or next Friday. I am so excited. Hopefully I can get lots of sleep to get rid of this cough!
As for the rest of my classes, they are going really well. I absolutely love my interior design class, although it is taking over my life. I find myself evaluating elements and principles in buildings all the time. Still an awesome class.. My health classes are coming along great too. My teachers are really funny so it makes the 2+ hours of class not so bad. For my marriage and family class we have to grow a plant. He gave us seeds in class and mine broke within an hour of having it. Now I have to wait for him to order new ones because he has had more people ask for new ones this semester than ever before. So, we will have to see if I can grow this plant when I get a new seed. Anyway, that's all the boring school stuff.
We have an apartment for next year!! Marissa and I are moving to a place called Chatsworth. They are raising the rent $45 at the place we live now so there is no way we are going to stay here. The place we are moving to is so cute. It has three stories, two bedrooms shared, 2 1/2 baths and the outside looks like little townhouses. We are so excited!
Tonight we are going to the Film Festival so that should be fun!

Is it really over?
This was probably the most eventful weekend I have had in a long time...
The beginning of last week I was super stressed trying to get all my work done so I didn't have to do any homework when my parents got into town. Lindsea and Travis got into town Wednesday but I only got to see them for a couple hours. We went to grandma and grandpa's for some of grandma's amazing chicken noodle soup with homemade noodles. It was awesome
I had class alllll day Thursday, my birthday. Didn't get to see my family (which included my aunts kelli and jenni!) at Red Robin for my birthday dinner. I would like to know what that Red Robin has against singing happy birthday. That's like my favorite part... Oh well. After dinner we headed back to our apartment for some cupcakes and hanging out. My parents finally got to meet some of my friends and put names to faces. Marissa made about 100 cupcakes. They were soo cute and tasted great. I got pearl earrings from my siblings, an iTunes gift card from Sherry, rice cooker!, a new camera (that I still need to order), headbands, a chocolate never faileth cookbook (my old roommate KyLeigh knows we too well), lots of candy, soaps/ lotions, piggy bank and a framed picture of Ryan Reynolds from my Shannon. It was a great birthday.
On Friday we picked up Lindsea's cloak for her wedding. She looked gorgeous in it. We headed up to Sherry's to help finish the cupcakes for the reception and then all got either pedicures or/and our nails done. Marissa and I already got our nails done Wednesday so we did pedicures and mom enjoyed getting her nails done. That night was the bachelorette party which was tons of fun. :)
Saturday was the big day. Janae did all of our hair and make up. She is awesome. Lindsea looked absolutely beautiful.
The reception and car decorating went great. It's weird to think that she is married now!!!
Everyone left Sunday... Sherry held a party for the Golden Globes. I swear I am horrible at guessing at those kinds of things! it was tons of fun though. Thanks again Sherry! After the party Marissa and I headed up to Midway to meet up with Aaron, Stacey and Chris at Chris' family's condo. We played games, watched movies and ate way too much food. We all came home last night wanting to barf from being so full.
Tonight is our first basketball game, our second dodgeball game and the first day in volleyball coaching we get to play! It is going to be a long night...

The New Semester
Before I can add my 7am class I have to have an FBI background check, fingerprinted and all that... I haven't done that because I didn't know where to go. When I went to the classroom this morning. The door was locked. So, I decided to go sign up for a time to get a schedule for girl's dodgeball. Hopefully they still have schedules tomorrow morning. I'm just happy I didn't wake up at 6 for nothing.
I LOVE my interior design and religions teachers. they have so much energy and are hilarious.
I know I will love my coaching volleyball. We are only to be in a classroom for one more day then we will be playing volleyball pretty much every other class. SO excited.
Classes shouldn't be too brutal, but it was only the first day.

Oh, by the way, I am officially a Junior. Looks like I am going to be a super senior for sure.

2010 to 2011
2010 ended with a fun party at our house that was filled with games and food. I hate leaving family when I have to come back to school (especially since I have my 4 hour 7am class tomorrow). We got back just in time to see family at my Grandpa's birthday party. Everyone seemed to have a great Christmas/NY/birthday. As much as I miss home, for some reason it is always nice to get back here. I have a schedule, for the most part. Which I like. I may not like my schedule for this first block but I will have to live with that if I ever want to graduate.
Ending the break with my nephews was awesome. Rock has more energy that I can ever imagine and Ryker's facial expressions are the best. I cannot wait to have those two down here in a week and a half. :)
So, I know if I make resolutions I will forget them so fast, so I'm not going to bother. I just want to make it through this year successfully in (mostly) school. No specific resolutions for me.
2010 was definitely a good year for me. I got to crown Princess Bronte( :D ), coached the sweetest girls ever in basketball, turned 19!!, finally got to play sports again (which included volleyball every chance I got and playing around VERY good looking men), Ryker was born, camped out for a BYU basketball game and woke up at 5 to get tickets to another one, will always be remembered at WyView as the girl that got hit in the head with a softball, changed my major/ minor, said so long to my wisdom teeth and found out my body can't even function correctly on 1000 mg of Ibuprofen, got a second summer job at Slidewaters, got to see Carrie Underwood, BACKSTREET BOYS and Luke Bryan in concert, went to Florida (which meant Harry Potter world WOO!), finally got to ride a mechanical bull, moved into an apartment that had a toilet too tall for me (and eventually Marissa moved in), became obsessed with board games and movies, and got to spend as much time as I wanted (kinda) with my nephews!
