Alright, so I have to apologize for being one of the WORST bloggers ever. I can't believe it's been over 5 months since I last blogged. A lot has happened since my last entry. Europe, another summer of efy, and now I'm back at school tackling my Junior year. I guess the best thing I can do is give a little synopsis on each event and maybe throw in a picture or two. So, here we go:
Europe was amazing! Oh my goodness. I loved every second of that trip. I saw Rome, Florence, Pisa, Berlin, Wittenberg, Paris, London, some of the beautiful countryside of England, Copenhagen, and Sweden! All those places were packed into only 3 1/2 weeks...amazing! I think my favorite places that we went were Rome, Wittenberg, and London. Of course I loved them all, but those 3 places really impressed me.
The food was so good! The pizza in Rome was to die for and I will never have another slice of pizza that's as good. The gelato (ice cream) in Italy was amazing too...OH MY WORD! I can't even put into words how good it is. Just think of the best ice cream you've had and times it by 10. Yep, that's how good it was.
Efy this past summer was an unforgettable experience. I made some great new friends and grew a lot. I worked a total of 9 weeks and each week was full of different youth, different co-counselors, and a different experience. What an amazing program that not only the youth get to attend, but the counselors. We don't tell the youth this but efy is really efc (especially for counselors). If you think about it, a lot of what is taught during the week applies more to us (the counselors) than the youth. Of course it's things that the youth will deal with, but it's what we are going through right now as young adults. Very powerful stuff!
This summer another one of my Florida girls, Laura, got married to one of the sweetest guys ever, Michael! They had such a beautiful day. They were married in the Manti temple and then had a very cute reception in Laura's backyard. Now the rest of us need to get married...easier said than done!
School is going really well this semester. I am taking about 15 credits and I love each of my classes. My teachers are great and so easy to work with. I am planning on applying for the BFA (Bachelor of Fine Arts) in Graphic Design this November, so wish me luck! Hopefully I will be able to get it. One unfortunate thing is that it had already started snowing up here...it's the beginning of October!!! Yeah, I'm not sure I like Idaho anymore...haha
Well, that is the latest update from me! Until next time...
