Today... and why I love cars

Let the good times roll... Yup, that's right. I took my last final today. Cleaned my car today (getting all that yellow dog hair out is pretty much impossible- but I tried. I still love my yellow boy). I also moved most of my stuff today---the best part of today being... my car decided to break. Awesome. I know. Pretty much I think cars really have intelligence. Seriously- I think everytime I have something else I REALLY need a car for- it dies and I "get" to shell out a couple hundred to fix it. Anyone up for fixing a water pump for free? I'm most def NOT a fan. I thought it was fixed but... nope. My dad is amazing though and "figures things out". He's a great mechanic. I'm impressed and leave it to him. If it doesn't get fixed by Monday it won't be fixed for like 2 weeks- no bueno. (My family is going to So Cal next week-- )Hopefully he has time to fix it tomorrow. Then I can drive to my new place, get a new puppy this fall, and life will be happy ever after, right?

End of Semesters

Well... I can't believe I've been home for just over 5 months. It almost freaks me out. A few weekends ago I was lucky enough to get the chance to head on back up to the Land of Port for a "vacation" (really it was to pick up a CC puppy in our club- hey they paid 1/2 of the trip! Yay!) It was really fun- but I wish much longer. The longer trip ended up to be impossible because it's the dreaded time of year... END OF SEMESTER. (dun, dun, dun) The time of year all college students and professors dread. It not quite over but so close there are a bazillion things to do before it actually is over. So thus... I've been working on a "few" projects plus getting ready for and taking my state interpreting test (finally! I have 2 months until I find out if I passed). As of this moment I only have 2 more finals and one "field trip" (awesome, I know- in college- actually I'm not looking forward to that one but I'm hoping for some extra credit)
This semester has been a good one- the mission helped me learn how to study alot more effectively, although i am glad to have it over. whew! Wish me luck!
In puppy news? Nothing really a WHOLE lot new. I'm moving out this weekend with Lindsey and her roomate- so I'll have 4 new dogs in my life-- My family would probably NOT be okay if I took Vinnie. (plus don't you think 4 dogs is enough ;)) I'm going to be a counselor for EFY (Especially for Youth) at BYU in Provo, Utah. That should be fabulous! So prospective puppy date? At the VERY earliest- End of July/Early August. So that's an update on my life. The End
