Fall at EWU

Walking to class today, I realized how beautiful the campus has become. The weather has been really crappy here, fall is upon us, and shortly, snow will be falling. Already, I have been wearing both a sweatshirt and a winter coat!!! Yesterday, for some strange reason, the weather was amazing. The week went from being in the low 50's to a 70 degree day!! It was soooo nice, to just wear one layer!! Alas, it lasted only one day, and today we were back to rain and 50's. Classes have been going great. I still really enjoy my teachers and the subjects. Well as much as I have always enjoyed english. =)!! I have been studying a lot, mostly biology. Lots of reading, and after she finishes a lecture for a chapter, I take my notes and then type them so they are organized. It has been really beneficial in studying for my first midterm, which is on monday!! AHHH I am a little nervous, because I don't have any idea what her tests are like. Oh well, I am just gonna study my butt off!! On the first day of class for Bio, this really nice girl, morgan, sat right next to me, and we hit it off. She is really funny and she even is in orchestra! It was really funny how much we had in common. We have been studying ever night together, going over the notes I have typed. It has been really good for the both of us. I am really glad that I took AP chemistry last year. It has been really useful for the things we are learning!! Well I went home, last weekend. It was really good to be back and have a great home cooked meal and of course not having to do my laundry!!! THANKS MOM!!! I was surprised at how much stuff I missed. Even my chair at the kitchen table felt amazing!!! HAHA I also found that yes, I had gained weight. In fact 4 lbs worth!! So yesterday I got my butt in the gym and got myself a workout buddy, Jason Danch. We actually went to Kamiakin together, but really only knew each other through other people. So my plan is to at least lose the 4 lbs and maybe a couple extra!! =) Don't worry, I have also had the time to watch my favorite shows, so I am quite content!! Thank goodness for friends who have tv's and love the shows I do!!! Well enjoy the beautiful pictures of my campus!!!

Along with fall comes football games!!! I attended my first game two weeks ago!! It was fun, but sooooooo COLD!!!! I was wearing 4, YES 4 sweatshirts, and I was still freezing!!!! Gloves, of course were also worn!! Sadly we lost, I believe it was 20-23, something like that!! The other team scored with 3 minutes left on the clock, so we headed up to Jason's dorm to watch from there, in a HEATED room!!!! Some crazy pics from the game!!!
