I am not very good at keeping up with my blog. So let me start from the beginning of the month.
I turned 21 on the 2nd. Of course I had a couple friends offer to help me get drunk, but I'm not really into that sort of thing. So, I decided to throw a "mocktail" party. Serve non-alcholic drinks, virgin cocktails and what not. Then one idea lead to another and it kind of turned into a bigger deal than I originally planned. I rented a couple of rooms at a reception hall not too far from where I live (the same place Jason and Joce got married). That day was super crazy! There was so much to do and not enough time to do it. We had two rooms next to each other, one ballroom, and a room with a pool table. At first we all just sat around and socialized.
Kelci and a couple girls from my ward brought around a meatballs, crackers with artichoke dip, and glasses of sparkling cider.
Then we went into the other room for dinner. We started with salad. Chicken Cordon Bleu, baked veggies, sparkling Jell-O, and rolls.
Then of course we had mockatails being mixed the whole time (Thank you John!!) I found out that I’m not too shabby of a bar tender either… well, I can now mix 2 drinks.
And of course there was cake!
It was a lot of fun, and I think that everyone them selves. Here are all of the pictures, or you can just check them out on facebook.
I also started school… I love school, just hate the homework. I am only taking three classes, but all three of those classes have a lab. I start classes every day at 8, and then I go to work right after and don’t get off until 7. I don’t usually get home until around 745ish. My day is pretty long. I have run into my cousin Ryan a couple times on campus which is pretty fun. I haven’t seen Robby yet though. I took my first Calculus test today, 87% which isn’t awful but I am going to shoot for a little higher next time. Hopefully more in the A range.
Work is going really well, we just hired a bunch of new people, and thing are really fun. I like having more people around to get to know.
Other than that my life is pretty much the same everyday. Wake up, go to school, go to work, homework, sleep.
happy [belated] birthday; can't remember if i already told you or not.
ReplyDeleteyour party looks amazing. nothing like my 21st birthday celebration. :)
life as a college student can be so exhausting and overwhelming, but you WILL miss it when it's all over. glad you're enjoying it. don't stress too much about the little things. so fun to run into people you know on campus.
