I bleed blue

BYU students are a little weird. We've been called zoobies, Molly Mormons and Peter Priesthoods. We worship Jimmer (who wouldn't?) We camp outside the Marriott when the prophet comes. We hate the Utes and pretended to be disapproving of Max Hall when he said "I don't like Utah. In fact, I hate them.  I hate everything about them."  And nothing beats the Daily Universe Police Beat (Every Wednesday, I'm a faithful reader).  I have decided one thing for sure- I am a true BYU cougar. I've been reflecting a lot lately on my experience at BYU.  It's so weird to think I'm just about done. Where did 3 1/2 years go? While I actually never attended a single Jimmer game last year and I don't really hate/care about Utah, I'd still say I bleed blue. BYU has given me lifelong friendships, a well-rounded education, a better understanding and testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and so many fun memories.  Since I'm feeling a little nostalgic, here's some pictures of my favorite BYU memories :)

First Halloween
Second Halloween and best costume ever

Life's a happy song, when there's someone by my side to sing along

Yay for the Muppets!! We went to see their new movie last night, and this song about sums up how I'm feeling lately.



I'm really excited to move to Washington DC, and the very best part is that I get to go with my best friend. I'm so lucky to have Tom.  He knows me well enough to know how to drive me crazy, but he loves me enough to not do it all the time :) He makes me smile and laugh and just feel happy. Life really is a happy song when he's with me.

Senioritis and Provoitis

Well, I have officially joined the blogging world! Tom and I are moving to Washington DC this January and I thought I'd start a blog to keep a journal of all the things I learn, see, do, eat, like, don't like, and anything else I feel like writing about. I have an internship with the Federal Judicial Center, and Tom will be starting his Master's of Accounting at George Washington University.

Pretty much we are ready to leave today. Right now.  Tom has what I would call Provoitis.  It usually develops after living in Provo for more than 4 years.  And I definitely have a bad case of Senioritis.  For some reason my classes don't seem as important now as they did at the beginning of the semester. Bring on the Metro, Congress, and Smithsonians please!
