Hello my darlings (:
SO. as per usual, its time for my end of the year post!
also, i didnt do one for 2013 buuuuuut yeah
we all know the reason why for that
awks
okay so this year has been the most ...... progressive
i have grown SO much since this time last year
its not even that i look different. Its the fact that i love myself so much more. i respect and trust myself. i take better care of myself and i make better decisions and i just treat myself so much better. i have made a point to stop being negative about myself.
sooooooooo
January
so january was the start of our new semester
I took biology 2, english 2010, math 1060, spanish 3 and aerobics
it was honestly such a good semester
also, 2014 was the beginning of my friendships with my roommates
February
Once i started getting into the hang of things life started getting a lot better
I was working out 6 times a week, i was doing well in school
also, i went home 1 time in february
i didnt take or post any pictures because i felt guilty for being home without telling a
it was the first time i had done that, and i feel like it was a turning point
i was finally making decisions for myself
also, i had a NCMO
(like 5 hours before)
hahahahahah
i had this weekend where i worked on thursday night, stayed up until 4 am with spence and aus
went to class 4 hours later, worked that night, went to a frat party and stayed up until 5 am babysitting austin and specer again
(and walked into caity making out with someone hahahahah hopefully she doesnt kill me for that)
then went to work 5 hours later and worked for 9 hours
then went to mardi gras (which is a dance) with austin
then we stayed up until 4 am AGAIN
then i slept for like 10000 hours
so awesome
megan came up to visit / grab a laptop
i went to go pick her up and i literally almost died
the roads were so snowy that when i was driving through the canyon i could only see like 3 feet in front of me
i wasnt allowed to drive in the snow when i lived at home
so i had no clue what i was doing, and it was terrifying
song of the month (warning)
March
march was pretty tame
i only went to 1 frat party
i took midterms
i thought i was going to las vegas and ended up staying in orem for a week
which was SO nice
probably the most exciting was i got a belly button ring!
my dad told me he would give me 500$ if i didnt do it
but i wanted to, SO badly
April
finals! my birthday! moving!
april was the finising of my first year of college.
I ended up with all As and a B in math
I had gotten all As all semester on all of my tests in trig
then i got a D on the final
i found out in vegas and it broke my freaking heart
is that pathetic?
aus and i studying for finals
my 19th birthday was extremely uneventful
my friends and i went to lunch and we went to a bbq that night
it wasnt bad, it was just not super eventful
but i suppose that adult birthdays arent ever eventful, right?
i also went home for kaleb's baptism
and promptly got the stomach flu
and missed his baptism
it sucked!
Probably the most notably part of april was moving out
i somehow got all of my stuff in my car
then i drove my car down to orem
then i got picked up and went to vegas
it was a pretty good chain of events
May
may was defined by my vegas trip
then i came home and moved into my very first apartment
like, not a student dorm
i had to pay for utilities, which meant bills, like an adult
i had my own room too, which was awesome
i got a new job as well
i was working as a waitress / server person at the coppermill
it was an okay job
June
june was probably the best month of the summer
ellise left on her mission (that was sad but good)
i went to mexico
i went running
that was probably the absolute best of the summer
i hadnt been running since last track season
and so my shins were okay for about a month
it makes me so upset that i cant run
every night when i got to go i was so happy
i even pushed myself to run 7 miles
i could have stopped but i wanted to keep going
and i did, and it was so amazing
then my shins started acting up again and i had to stop
like, i cant even illiterate how much i am in love with running
it makes me so upset that i cant do it.
and ya know, i did summery things like going to bbqs and eating out
it was also caitlyn's birthday!!
July
july was a month of working
i literally was working 60 hours a week, every week
between the 2 jobs, i had almost no time for anything
i spent 2 weeks in orem doing a catering job at UVU
honestly i was so effing paranoid everyday that i would run into ..... you know
i did manage to go tubing and to bear lake tho
it was really fun and college-y and perfect
August
after 3 weeks of working i finally got to go back to school!
call me a nerd, but i am completely in love with college
it makes me happy to no end to be able to go and learn and be better
this semester i took calculus, chemistry, chem lab, spanish 4 and political science
it was a lot of hard work, but it was SO worth it
i moved out of adams park and into edgehill
the internet here is aweful but besides that its pretty nice living here
also, austin came back
we basically spent his entire two weeks here together
September
september was a really weird month.
on the one hand, my life was amazing
i was doing fantastic in school
i got a raise, i made new friends
i went to an amazing concert
everything was SO good
but inside, i was so so so sad
like, unbearably sad
like, nothing i had ever felt before
it was really, really bad
i know exactly what it was about, but ill shouldnt talk about it on my blog
i mean, i got over it but it was rough for a while
October
october was pretty weird as well.
i was somewhat dating this guy and then things ended
i spent half of that month really sad
then, things started looking up!
i got a job as a pharmacy technician
i made a lot of new friends
everything just started getting so much better
and now, life is great (:
November
november can be classified through study sessions and trips out to eat
i also went home twice
once for thanksgiving and once because my younger cousin madi got married
so now i am the only one out of my family who isnt married
weeeeird
I was also the best sister of all time and bought my brother a sword-cane for his birthday
my friends caitlyn and bobby basically got me through the end of the semester
caity with calculus and bobby with chemistry
caitlyn provided the drinks, bobby provided the food
oh, and i started working at the pharmacy (:
song of the month (warning)
December
2014 ended up amazingly.
i got all As and 1 B+ (in chemistry)
that means I GOT AN A IN CALCULUS
ahhhhhhhh someone tell me they are proud of me!!!!!!
im proud of me so i dont even care
also, i got the amazing opportunity to go to florida with austin
it was so amazing guys, you have no idea
we had our own condo right on the beach
ahhhh it was so fantastic
pictures (:
.jpg)
after florida i got to be in orem for a few days
it was so nice to be home for more than 36 hours
So, in a final summation, 2014 has been the best year yet
there have been highs and lows, but ultimately i have grown so much as a person that the lows dont matter
in fact, the lows have made it all worth it.
yes, its cheesy but shut up, its true
and here is a picture of me trying to channel my inner badass that i have formed this year
maybe my inner lorde
thanks for reading, friends
keep calm and carry on
