Simple Pleasures: Silly Spring

Right now, the sun is outside my living room window shining in. It is wonderful. But alas, there's also a little bit of snow coming down at the same time. I just want it to be sunny weather all the time! This weekend and last, the weather was perfect and sunny and I was outside most of the time playing in it. But during the week last week, on Thursday night it snowed and there were a good couple of inches on the ground. Snow makes me sad... especially when it is now May and it should be sunny all the time!

I am starting to get use to my normal school routine again. All my classes are in the Spori building and it use to be only a 5 minute walk from Carriage House. Now it is a 15 minute walk. I don't mind it though. I love my new apartment so much and the change has been good for me!

I haven't talked about my classes yet, so I will take this opportunity to do so.

Class #1- Organizational Effectiveness: This class is for my Business/ Web Design minor. And it's online. It's only offered online or else I would have taken it on campus. But so far it's been a pretty simple class. Every week, there are a couple discussion boards where I answer some questions then comment on the other answers from students in my group. There's a weekly quiz on the chapter, and it's open book so they are not hard. I also do a couple of other things but this class is very interesting and I am learning a lot even though it is online.

Class #2- Public Relation Writing and Production: Although this is not my hardest class, it is probably the class I do the most work for. A lot of writing and PR related stuff. So I spend at least an hour everyday doing homework or studying. But it's alright because I love Pubic Relation so much. My teacher is so passionate about PR which makes it all the better.

Class #3- Media Research Methods: I'm not sure what I think of this class. Because I don't really care about research. I know it is important, but lets face it. Research is boring! I put the least amount of effort into this class. Hopefully I can somehow find a way to get something out of this class.

Class #4- Creating Online Media: I love this class because it is my web design class for the semester! I'm learning pretty much the same stuff as last semester, except I'm using different programs which is neat. For once I feel smart because I know a lot already!

Class #5- Interpersonal Theory and Practice: This class is so neat. I get to learn about interpersonal communications and I find it fascinating and never boring. My teacher is one of the funniest teachers I have ever had! This is definitely my favorite class this semester.

Class #6- Career Workshop: I only have this class once a week. I work on my resume, cover letter, and all that good stuff. I really am dying to buy the adobe creative suite programs because I can work on getting my resume and cover letters to look good. And it would also help me a lot in my web design class. But... I hate spending my own money!

So those are my classes this semester.

I had a fun weekend with my roommates and friends! Friday I went with some of my friends from my old ward and ate at Craigos, like we end up doing often together. Then we had a fun game/ hang out night at one of their apartments. It was weird that my old ward has changed so much and a lot of my friends moved out just like I did. But I still have a few there and it was great to see them.

Saturday I did some homework, cleaned, and played frisbee at the park with a couple of my roommates. Geoff decided to come later on because he had nothing to do. I loved playing frisbee in the sun! That night I went with my roommates and saw The King's Speech at the cheap. It was pretty good!
