"All I Do Is Win" - T-Pain

I can't believe it's been a month since I've blogged last. My bad. A lot has happen within a few short weeks! Bear with me as the post will be longish.

I finished work at Aspen Grove. The summer was awesome and I've made a lot of good friends. We spent the last 48 hours trying to break as many rules as possible...hehe. So we decided to go swimming after hours and then sneak into the dining hall and have a slumber party. And I may have done laundry in the kitchen...hehe. So overall the summer was great. Of course there was drama but that's what happens when you are friends with you ward members, roommates and coworkers. Whatever happened at AG stays at AG.

Now I am all moved into my new, well old, apartment. I am in my same bed for the 3rd time in a row!!

School started and.....I applied for....GRADUATION! So folks it is official, well not 100% but almost, on April 20, 2012 my 22nd birthday I will become a BYU Alumina. I will be receiving a BS in Communication Disorders and a minor in Music. So pretty much the whole weekend is gonna be a party. Who knows maybe I'll even get married that weekend. bahahahaha just kidding. really.

So this semester I am taking 8 classes. But before you start freaking out wondering how on earth I am going to manage that many classes...let me tell you what I'm taking:

Hearing Test and Measures - pretty cool class. I had to read 108 pages yesterday and then take a 30 question quiz. But I succeeded. We get to learn how to perform hearing tests and even practice giving them on a computer program. Supes exciting.

Social Dance - I've always wanted to take a dance class at BYU and decided to take this one with the lovely Rachel. We have a Niel Patrick Harris look alike in the class. I danced with him and he flexed his arm. I tried not to laugh. He's a freshmen.

Bowling - Yeah this class is pretty much awesome. I'm taking it with Diane and all we do is bowl. Love it.

Medical Speech Pathology - I'm excited for this class since it's more focused on what I like; anatomy stuff. So far we have talked about TBIs and watched a horrific video of a car accident. Very exciting.

Music Fundamentals - I've been to this class once. There are like 3 guys from Vocal Point in it. We went over the notes on the staff. So pretty much easy theory class.

Professional Practices - We get to learn all the jazz about grad school and what it's like to be a professional SLP. Super interesting and informative.

Piano - Yup I'm taking private lessons this semester and I am super excited. I got to pick my own music so this semester I am doing a Baroque and Romantic piece. I really wanted to do a Rachmaninoff but I wasn't sure if I would be able to pull it off but I'm going for it! Let me tell you I was super giddy and excited when my teacher said I could do it. Rachel and Diane will be my witnesses. I am also playing a piece by Handel.

Basic Conducting - I'm pretty much a geek when it comes to conducting. I find myself conducting songs all the time except now I get to learn how to conduct choirs. AWESOME. My teacher is pretty cool. We get to have tea and crumpets every week before class starts.

So I am pretty stoked for this semester. Excited for this wonderful three day weekend. My roommates are amazingly awesome. I have always been blessed in the roommate department and for that I am eternally grateful. oooooooooooooo. Anyway...I'm hoping to keep up better with the blogging and keeping you all updated on my wonderful, exciting life. Huzzah.
