This has been a great weekend! The weather in Provo is beautiful! It feels like spring! Yesterday, Lexi and I studied outside in the sun and it was so nice. And today some more friends and we had a picnic outside and laid in the sun for hours. I got so sunburned! It's actually kind of painful, but I don't mind it. It was just so nice to be outside in short sleeves. We had Stake Conference yesterday and today and it was so good! Really felt the spirit. And I got to skype with my family and that was so much fun. I love family :)
Well it's really surprising how fast this semester has flown by. Only one month left! I'm starting to get sad, because I love my roommates and my friends so much. I'm really sad to be leaving them, especially my roommates. It has been a blast living with them. They are so funny and entertaining. Every day is an adventure with them.
Well I have decided to stay at BYU for the Spring and Summer terms. That means it's going to be a long time before I go home to Las Vegas again, but I feel like I made the right decision. And I have decided that I am going to do a Study Abroad program somewhere Spanish-speaking in the future. Don't know exactly when, I still need to look up when the next one is, and I'm not sure exactly where either, just so long as it is safe and Spanish-speaking, but I really feel like I need to do it. I have progressed so much in my Spanish this past year and I feel like I really need to immerse myself in the language so I can finally master it. I've always wanted to do a Study Abroad, but I wasn't sure about the Spanish part, because living in a country where the people don't speak English scares me, but now that I've made the decision, I feel really good about it and I'm excited. My parents really support me on it, too. They agree that I need that experience.
I am excited for next semester too because I'm finally going to be taking a drawing class (always wanted to) and I'm going to take a country dance class. Country dancing is so much fun I have discovered! And for those of you who do not know, I love to draw, especially Disney pictures. My bedroom is covered in my Disney drawings, and I finished a drawing of Rapunzel not too long ago. So I'm excited to further my skills. I hope this means I will be able to get real pencils and erasers and all the special stuff that real artists use. I just hope I don't have to read too much out of a book, because I have a hard time doing that with art. My dad gave me a "How to draw faces" book, and instead of reading it, I just flipped through the pages and found faces I liked, then copied them. haha I suppose I would get better if I actually read the advise it gave me.
Well, that's all of the update I have for now. About to go to ward prayer and then have a desert party. Yay! I made really good cupcakes. They are really fun flavored. I hope people like them. :)
