So, I decided to create this blog for my family and friends that I will be leaving behind when I move up here to Provo, Utah in August. I am up here right now to pick Heather up, and to also Check out my Future School. So I'll be blogging and keeping everyone updated, and I decided to start it today, because this was my first experience with my new life, and I wanted to share it with you all.

Sometimes I get really sad when i think about leaving everything I love behind: my friends, my family, my ward, my institute, my school, my- everything...but now, more than ever, I am excited to go to Utah Valley University in the Fall and begin my life here, and create new memories.
I met my roommates, their names are Eryn, Whitney, Sarah, Stephanie, and of course Heather. They are all so much fun, and already I feel like we are going to get along and have a blast living together. (we are taking new roommate pictures tomorrow- so stay tuned.)

I went to the campus of UVU today, and I fell in love. We walked around a little bit, but we are going back in the next couple days, so I will write more about it later.
I'm really excited to go to UVU and feel blessed in so many ways for this oportunity. I know that me not getting into BYU was the best for Me and for what I need right now. Just being on campus for the hour or so that I was there today, felt so good, and right. I love that it is MY school, not Heather's, but mine. I love knowing that I will have a School to have prode in, and that it will be a community of my own.


I'm going to miss all of you guys- my family and friends back home, but this is where my future begins, and where I will grow so much, and learn about myself as a person. I'm so excited for the Fall.
Peace, Love, CTR
