midterms.

I thought it would be appropriate to review the first half of the semester since it is midterms time. Reviewing with pictures of my life is a lot more entertaining than actually reviewing for a BYU midterm test...so I will spend my Sunday posting these instead!

floods.

It looks like the Sunshine Coast isn't so sunny anymore...

Recently all of my Australian friends' facebook statuses have been about the rain and floods. It looks like there has been heavy rains for months now, which is now turning into flooding. Apparently many people have had to evacuate their homes in Brisbane and it's not looking so great for the animals...this man was able to save this roo though!

university.

Today I officially applied for graduation! Crazy! It is so weird to think that I am almost finished with college, or uni as they call it in Australia. It's kinda terrifying to picture what will come next. Growing up, I always imagined myself going to college after high school, but I never really planned much for after that. So now I am on the job hunt- a difficult task in today's economy. I will be walking in the Brigham Young University graduation ceremony in April, but still attend spring classes, therefore not receiving my diploma until June 2011. My major is in commercial leisure service management and my minor is in communications. I want to be a corporate events planner. If anyone hears of any kind of job opening let me know! Preferably something with event planning, program development, public relations, or non-profit management. I am willing to move almost anywhere! I am excited to embark on a new adventure- I just need to find one that will pay me...

pathways.

The hardest path to travel is that from your bed to the shower...8:00 am classes are not a good idea during winter semester...

divine.

Most blog posts around this time of year include words on new year resolutions, a summary on christmas break, or maybe the beginning of a new semester...

But this is a post about a blanket.

I have returned to my Provo apartment to begin the new semester. It is always freezing in my apartment, but at least we save on our bill. Last night, however, I was able to whip out my new heated blanket! It is a wonderful invention. Crawling into a warm bed when you are freezing is so divine. Thank you grandma and grandpa Cole for my Christmas gift!

Last day of class

Finals.

Hey this counts as an update.
