Graduation 2008

Oh my gosh! I just watched Tanya, one of my best friends graduate from college! It was absolutely amazing! I have never been so proud! I can't even describe the happiness I feel for her. She looked so beautiful!! She's all growed up!! ;) Wow! I can't believe how time flies! It feels like just yesterday that we graduated from high school and moved to Salt Lake together. Tanya is my twin and she knows me better than I know myself. It kind of sounds like she is going away for ever! It will just be weird without her at school!

I remember when we were deciding what college we wanted to go to. I knew a little bit before the middle of senior year that I wanted to go to the U of U and she still hadn't decided! After I was accepted to the U she decided that she would apply to the U as well and she got accepted!! I was so thrilled to be going to college with her and we lived together in the dorms our freshman year! It was the BEST year by far!!

I am absolutely going to miss going to school with her! But I am so excited to see what she is going to do with the real world and where she is going to go in life!! :) I love you Tanya! You are amazing!

Finals!

I finally finished my last final. Procrastination is a horrible thing sometimes. I put it off to the very last minute. Good thing it was an online final. I am so glad to be done with this year and I can't wait to see what is in store for the summer. This weekend has been fantastic so far! My friend and roommate (from freshman year of college) turned 21 and we sure did celebrate! :) And today I am in Ogden for a couple days visiting my parents. I haven't seen them in a while and it is so nice to be here and have some home cooking.

I found out a couple things that are supposed to occur this summer that I am really excited about. First of all, my grandparents, from South Dakota, are going to be in Utah for a couple days and I absolutely can't wait. The last time I saw them was Christmas 2 years ago. And I am also going to Pennsylvania for a week to see family and friends! So far it sounds like an awesome summer to me. I'm not taking any classes and I will just be working. We will see how it goes.

Well I'm off to bed or play a game! Haha! Goodnight!

Newbie

Hi!! My name is Christine! (Just in case you don't know me). I am a junior at the U of U and I am studying recreational therapy. I work at the hospital and I work on an awesome floor with some pretty awesome patients. School is almost over for the year and I can't wait.

It was my first semester of taking PRT classes (classes I have to take for my major). And I have to say it was a blast. The best thing was last weekend. The point of one of my classes was to program an event. Our event was Healthy Kids Day. It turned out so much better than I ever imagined! My classmate and I did a healthy fishing wall. It was the coolest looking thing! We had a little boy and girl come up and the boy fished and he got an orange or apple and his little sister fished after that and she got some strawberries. Well the mom gave the boy a strawberry and he got a funny face after taking a bite. He looks up and says "I don't like strawberries! (then he paused and said) I like shrimp!" Shrimp was the last thing I was expecting to come out of his mouth. I laughed so hard!

Anyway...it was a great day and was very successful. Oh and it was a BEAUTIFUL day!! Which made me way happy. It was a little cold in the morning when we were setting up but then again we were in the trees and had barely any sun. I hope that the weather starts getting more spring like. I am ready for the snow to go away for a while.

Well thanks for reading this but I have to go to bed I have work in the morning! Have a great night and a good week! I will be studying for finals!

This is the first time I have written and I started this so I could write on Will's blog that his mom is keeping up to date about his lung transplant.
