I love PR

I really do love my major, and one of the great things about it... I'm getting a top 5 education in the country. Special shout-out to all my PR friends and professors. Thanks for everything!

When using flags to cross the street...

So I have crossed the streets of Provo... MANY times, yet until last week I have neglected to read the sign that teaches you how to cross the street. I thought it was hilarious... let me know what you think...

ps... if you were wondering (and Janelle can confirm this) i do NOT cross the streets using flags

Since we last talked

Alright everyone...here's an update of the happenings in my life. (sorry they're not that exciting)

Suzanne...I'm sorry that it probably live up to the hype.

School: This semester of classes is rough... especially econ, finance and my capstone class. But I'm really excited for my capstone class. I'm excited to work with TSD Ink. again, we work so well together. I think we are going to have some great ideas for our client (Central Utah Water Conservancy District). Econ and Finance... I'm not excited about.

Work: Work is great... as always. However it is super busy. I always have so much to do. I have taken on some new responsibilities and new tasks and I love it. I'm so grateful for the opportuniites BYU Broadcasting is providing me.

Family: Everyone has been a little under the weather lately but hopefully that will change this week. I'm grateful for a fantastic family (I have the best).

Church: I just got called to work with the scouts in my ward. This should be an exciting calling for me. It will be a new adventure as well... since I did not grow up with brothers I will be learning a lot. I've also been thinking how blessed I am lately. Since I drive a lot I have the opportunity to reflect on my life a lot. As I have looked back I've realized how much the Lord truely has blessed me. I'll go in to more detail about this on a separate blog post... it's worth making an entire post about.

Friends: It is safe to say that I have the best friends in this whole world. I am grateful for every single one of you. Each of you have blessed me in such a unique way. I'm still missing Janelle a lot, but I'm grateful for the opportunities I have to talk with her, thanks J for being my best bud. I'm grateful for all my work friends and my school friends, especially my PR Friends (which obviously includes TSD). I'm grateful for those friends I have in the Draper 7th ward. You guys rock. I'd also like to give a shout out to one of my best friends Donna Horn, she'll never know how big of an impact she has had on my life. Also to Chels... I've had so much fun being a part of planning your wedding. I am so excited for you and grateful for you.

Sports: I love sports and they keep distracting me from doing the things I should be doing (homework and studying)

One More Thing: I really want to go to the Sundance Film Festival this week. Would anybody want to come?

Fast & Furious

Friday night...driving down state (in Orem). Cars traveling together. License plates that say "fushibi and trkdout" drive continues. Cars racing. One car turns into gas station, then another then another, then another, and another, until there were 29 in all.

One month later. driving past Macy's. Cars spotted. take a drive down state, cars traveiling together... well you get the idea.

If you were wondering, yes Janelle and I were in a movie and yes it is going to be titled, "Fast and Furious V.

Stay Tuned

Please stay tuned (into my blog that is). I have a lot to update you on...

And So It Continues...

Just finishing cleaning my apartment...this is weird...in SO many ways.

It's not goodbye, just see you soon.

I'm sitting here trying to focus on finishing my second final, but for some reason I can't seem to focus. I''m thinking about how much my life is about to change...in just a short period of one week, my life is going to be competely different.

Here are a few reasons why: I'm approaching my last semester of college... and honestly, I'm terrified.

I'm moving home...which will definitly prove to be an interesting adventure. (If you need to know the reasons why let me know and I'll tell you)

And lastly, two of my really good friends are leaving. (Amanda Parker and Janelle Bertagnole).

I was talking with my dad the other day and he was talking about my dying dog. He mentioned that he "loved very deeply and passionately". I have thought about this so much lately and have realized that this is a quality I have inherited from my dad which makes change extremely hard form me... especially when it involves people that I LOVE so much.

Amanda has accepted a job and is moving to Fargo. My time working with her will be over with after tomorrow. I will miss definitely miss it and her so much! Love you Amander.

And Janelle is going on a mission. My emotions are on the surface as I think about what is happening... and I hate this because I hate crying. But for the past three and a half years Janelle has been my best friend (she always will be my best friend). We have created so many unforgettable memories together. I'm sure she gets sick of me saying this but I owe her so much. She has influenced my life in a way that no one else has or ever will. My Father in Heaven truely knew what he was doing when he put me in Kimball hall in 2006. I will be forever grateful for my eternal relationship with J. I love you Janelle.

Now to those who will be around me the next two weeks, I apoligize as the tears most likely will be falling frequently.

I hope this post isn't too emo, I just wanted to express my feelings. I promise I have an extremely exciting post coming up (J... you know what I'm talking about).

Thank you for listening.

All my love,

Steph
