Perfect Timing

It's amazing to me how everything ends up working out you know?



We are so much a like in many situations we've gone through, or been through. And I am so grateful for her! It sucks she had to go through it all on her own because at the moment I honestly don't know how I would get through certain situations without her. I mean yes she can't give me the perfect advice or tell me what to do, and make the decision for me but I am grateful just to know that she went through it as well.
Well let me take that back. Not grateful she went through it. But grateful that I can talk to her about it and she knows exactly what I'm feeling and she knows how to describe feelings that I can't somehow grasp the words for.

I honestly feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of me after spending only a few short minutes on the phone with her! Makes me very very very grateful for her and her willingness to listen and help! I love you sister!!


But! Moving on! Another SHOUT OUT TO MY HOME GIRLS
From: Plain City, Utah, and Louisville, Kentucky!
They are freaking amazing! We end up having so much fun on a daily basis...
Well... sometimes a little too much funn..







Say Hello To BRYNN DALBY, AND MADDIE HANSEN!

Another Week in the Life

Well, the first week of the big college life is finished. And luckily for me, I still want to go to class, to do homework, and to take notes!
Yesss! I'm proud of myself.
Being away from home is supposed to be hard right? And yet I find myself content with life at the moment. Not that I don't miss home. I miss my family, my friends, my dear baby car, and of course the fact that I don't have to plan, or think of my meals all day everyday! Maybe it was time for me to go? Maybe this is where i'm supposed to be at this time, right now in my life. But moving away and starting my life out as a "grown up" is scary, and yet I almost crave it more. I want school to be over, I want my degree, I wanna have my dream job, I wanna get married, have kids, and live in my own house, with my own cars, with my own worries, and bills, and trials. I want to live the happy life, with my eternal companion.. Like my sister. Having a place that she gets to go home to not the biggest house but the perfect house everyday, to a man who loves her unconditionaly, having the CUTEST CHILD IN THE WORLD, with a job that supports her family, and kids who love her, to me, she has it all.
Although the hard things in life don't sound that great, I just want to start my life. I feel like I'm wasting my time sitting in school. Yes everyone I know, school is the key to all the things I wanted above that's why I'm here.
Sitting in class I realized how much it still felt like I was in high school. Couple days in and wondering when the heck I was getting out, why I was there and how much longer am I going to have to wait.
With my weekend being yesterday made me realize now that I'm 19.. I'll be 20 next year... 21 after that, and the years just keep rolling!
AH! When did I grow up. I'm in college people. COLLEGE! I'm an adult... I have to account for myself now. No one to guide me to make the right decisions, or do the right things. It's all me.. And as nerve racking as that is, I'm okay with it. I think I'm ready. I wanna be an adult.. I want to be my own person. But this is the time in life that I want to skip. When your at home you have your parents, siblings and friends to love you and keep you company. Now, I'm stuck in a place where they constantly talk about marriage, and date, date, date! It just confuses me. Because I want to get married and start my life, but I'm stuck here. I guess Heavenly Father will throw my future husband into my life soon... I hope. Because I've never been a girl to want to be alone. And thanks to "BYU-I-DO" just making me want it even more.
I know dad, don't worry! You raised a smart girl... I'm not getting married!! It's just overwhelming with them forcing the idea into your head day after day.

But on a more playful note! My birthday! Yay Whitney. 19.
Was a wonderful weekend, thanks to my roommates, Blaine ! We had a blast. Saturday was the big day, we started out at Wendy's, for lunch, came back to my apartment hung out, Blaine met all the girls! Took a much needed nap, for me and Blaine. considering they got in at 2:30am the previous morning. We went on a  date to Applebees, Me and  Blaine and Courtney. And after we continued and went bowling. YES I WENT BOWLING. For the first time in months, I went and threw it down at Teton Lanes, in the big Rex. &  It was an interesting night, I ended up bowling horribly.. and no dad it wasn't 160! I would have jumped for joy if I got 160 or better! But nope, Whitney rocked it at 130.. yupp, the start athelete, bowling scholarship girl bowled a 130! I blame it on, 3 things. 1) Not having a spare ball. 2) It was cosmic bowling so the lights were off so I couldn't see. and 3) We had retards bowling next to us who thought they would walk in front of you when you were bowling, or dance on your lane! FRUSTRATING!!! Ya I understand about having fun! Believe me bowling was funn for me once, but seriously? RESPECT THE LANES!
But we came back and opened up presents (thank you mom & dad).
My rooommates did an awesome job of decorating the apartment for me.
Even though Blaine ruined the suprise & my roommates took it upon themselves without knowing, to decorate.







Overall the weekend was a success. Thank you everyone :D

Another Chapter

Well, I know blogging for me has always been a hit and miss. But here we go again!
Now that I'm in college and the fact that I have to be a big girl now isn't the best but not that bad at all.
So moving to Rexburg, ID probably was the best decision since the Bowling Scholarship was way out in Iowa. I think the weather maybe better here? Than there? I hope so at least. I'd rather be in Tri-Cities, sitting on the boat soaking up the sun! Instead here I walk everyday to class at 7:30am in the night air of 28!
First day of school was yesterday for me, because I was "lucky" and don't have any classes on Tuesday or Thursday. So as of right now I think my schedule is set in stone for the semeester! Well hopefully!
The weather.. Thursday was pouring down rain, friday is was freezing cold, wet & a super cold wind. Like ice.... ice hitting you in the face...

As mom always has made tradition we have to take a first day of school picture! So as Maddie and I were strutting to class we stopped traffic & took a shot



And it being college and me not starting classes yet there was no one to play on thursday because everyone had homework! So i busted out a cake mix & my cake decorating kit waiting for make some cupcakes when Brynn And Maddie say.. Hey... your making cake. To which i said cupcakes, and after a little discussion we decided on Red Velvet Cupcakes, with Cream Cheese Frosting. Sounds appitizing!
