The Hunger Games, and catch up on life.

So I finally got the first book of The Hunger Games Trilogy, and I loved it! It took me a few days to read but I am very sad it left me on a cliffhanger because I had to get the second book! Normally I don't read for pleasure at all while I'm at school because I know I would procrastinate homework and just read. But I will try to balance my reading with my school work as best as I can :)

Well, I arrived back to Rexburg yesterday. Such a bittersweet feelings. I have missed my friends here, so I'm glad I will be able to hang out with them again. But I am not ready at all for school to start and do homework all the time. Ugh... once it's your 7th semester, you just want to be DONE! Just two more semesters to go and I will graduate!

My roommates are all moved in and so far they seem really nice. I've been getting to know them slowly, but my room roommate, Taylor, I can already tell is going to be such a funny roommate! I have to share this story... I thought it was so funny! We were talking in our room last night, getting ready for bed and doing other random stuff. We decided we were both tired and so Taylor went to go shut the blinds by her bed, but they were stuck! No wonder they were up and open. I tried to fix it but the string must be twisted together at the top. So we had to keep the window open. Even though we have a huge bush that blocks our window so no one can peek in, Taylor was like "How am I going to sleep!" and kept complaining. I can't stand a window being open either, and Taylor and I both need the room to be completely dark when we sleep. But I asked Taylor "Why won't you be able to sleep?" And the most unexpected thing came out of her mouth. She said, "Because the racoons are going to pop up in the window and scare me!" Oh my gosh I started laughing so hard! Apparently she has had some bad experiences with raccoons in the past, but that was just so random! I assured her she would be fine and no raccoons would watch her while she was sleeping.

This month I need to start looking and applying for internships so I can have one in January. It is hard work to write cover letters and find an internship that matches you the best. So far I have applied for a couple, and have a couple more I might apply for, but I'm going to wait until the semester starts and the internship department can help me out. Their website hasn't been updated for a while so I have to wait for them to update it.

School starts in 3 days. 3 DAYS. Too soon! But I hope I have good classes that I enjoy!
