I left Ames 3 weeks ago today, as hard as it is to believe, it actually went by fairly fast.
I'm going to be honest, the last 2 weeks were the worst 2 weeks of my entire life, but it's getting better lately. Everyone told me the first couple weeks to a month or so would be hard, but I had no idea what that meant.
I've been cooking a lot lately, which is oddly fulfilling. I've made sourcream chicken, rice pilaf, rolls, lots of quiche, and I'm going to make coffee cake and soup soon.
School is getting a little better too, it was definitely hard to come back after a really long summer. I dropped Women's Studies which is making my schedule a lot more enjoyable and I feel like I'll be able to do better in my other classes now. So now I'm only taking 12 credits, but I figure it's good to ease into all of this.
Basically, I'm getting into the swing of things and figuring out new parts of life everyday. Plus, I have a few fun things going on the next few weekends. I'm hiking Timpanagos this weekend, Gran and Papa are coming through next weekend and then Zeb and I might go to Rexburg, and the next weekend I'm hopefully going to Colorado. Not to mention Arcade Fire is coming to Thanksgiving Point Wednesday.
Don't worry, I'm still doing my homework and keeping up with class.

Ah, who cares about homework?? :) Seriously, 12 credits is PERFECT! I hope things continue to look up.
Reading your blog (and Jeremy and Sarah's too) helps us feel so connected. We're glad things are going a little better for you. We are very excited to be with you in 8 days.
I was typing Gran and Papa when "swoosh" there went the message signed anonymous!
And I forgot to say the grandparents also read Shea's blog religiously. Sometimes her adventures scare us more than comfort us. :-) Anyway, the "blog"world is amazing.
