1 week down!

It's official.. I have been a resident of Cedar City for ONE whole week!!!... Last Sunday as I was sitting in my bed trying to get out all of the freshmen jitters I just told myself if I could make it through Monday I would be okay, and now its turned into just make it through each day. Good things have happened, and some not so good things have happened! Luckily I am blessed with awesome roommates. Although there is supposed to be 6 of us living here, there is only four which is kinda nice, and one of them is hardly ever home... They are all a few years older then me, so Im kinda like the nube and get teased and stuff, but thats alright I'm learning.. Luckily I have some good friends from home that I have been able to hang out with and kinda keep me from being super lonely while I start to find my loop here in this town!..
The schooling part of college is definitely A LOT different from high school. My professors don't really care if I do the home work or come to class, and I don't even think a single one of them have even attempted to pronounce my name. I have basically slid by under the radar. It's kinda harder then high school too. I think I have already spent more time doing homework and studying and in class this past week, then I did my entire senior year, which doesn't take much because I never went to class, and took pointless classes, which I loved!!!...
Luckily I haven't gone hungry yet either. My lunches consist of making me a sandwich, because well I'm a good sandwich maker. It's a little sad though that I come home from class and have to make my own, just because I am so used to calling my dad on my way home from school so that my lunch is already made. Dinners have been a little bit interesting.. Ya know eating some good ol mac and cheese and other random non healthy foods. Tonight I was having a little pity party for myself, so I ate some cookie dough, and chips and felt much better after!
Although being on my own is fun and exciting, it's definitely not what I thought it was going to be like. I have missed my family, my friends, high school, and ... Tremonton, but I know I'm down here going to school for a reason and that everything and anything will work out as long as I put my trust in the Lord.
I think my testimony has definitely strengthened sense I have moved away. I don't have my mom making sure I go to church, I go because I want too, and well because the hot RM's too ;) haha.. Institute is something that I have kind of made a goal to make part of my weekly routine as well. I feel like if I surround myself with the gospel and people with the same goals and desires as me, it will be a lot easier to stay focused and have a good time at college, with out making some stupid mistakes!

Bring on the Freshmen 15!!! :)
