Day 01 — 5 things about you that no one really knows

1. Yesterday was my birthday.
2. I twitch in my sleep.
3. I am allergic to horses.
4. I am moving back home in a week from Monday.
5. Drum roll, please....I'm going on an LDS mission!

Starting today..

I'm gonna post something EVERY day for 30 days. I saw this on my Aunt Krystn's blog and gave the idea to my friend Shayna (who just started a blog last night...go check it out here!) but then decided it looked pretty fun, so I'm going to do it too!

Okay, so here's the plan, every day I'll blog down this list:

Day 01 — 5 things about you that no one really knows

New situations

call for extreme measures. And I'm starting to think I'm going to have to start taking those kind of measures.

Today was my first day at a University. Let me tell you, there is quite a difference between "University" and the beautiful thing called "college". Universities are big. Colleges are comfortable. Besides the size of the Utah State campus surrounded by lack of parking and therefore lack of transportation, I feel like I will never meet anyone! I did recognize a few faces and had the chance to talk to a few friends which was awesome, but for the majority of campus I feel like they could push me down, walk over me, and never even know I was there. Man. I forget that it takes time to make friends. It takes time and effort to make friends, to make a place feel like home. I guess I need to start taking extreme measures to make THIS place into somewhere I could call home.
