First things first, I still don't really know what is going on, but I am not stressed at all. I learned in mission prep that stress is a faith problem, so basically I just know what happens is supposed to happen:)
Ok, well I survived my first year of college! I'll be honest, I didn't really have that much fun the first semester. I went from being super involved, to no involvement at all. That changed quick when I started being more involved with the Student Alumni Association, I was on the committee for A-Week.
For all you non-aggies A-Week is basically homecoming in the spring. Week long activities and mucho FUN!
So we started the week out with the Red Bull Chariot Races. It was their 3rd year in a row coming to USU, which was very unusual, but Aggies are just that cool:)
The SAA team won, for the third year in a row. I think the competitors were just afraid of Bryan after the first race.... He really is the nicest guy when not competing:)
The rest of the week consisted of a movie in the Spectrum, which I was unable to go to since I was studying for mi examen en español... Next was the bike mob, which was pretty legit, I must say! Thursday was the Miss USU Pageant, and Friday was the dance and true aggie night.
It was a very successful week! I am so glad that I was a part of it. I met some pretty awesome people.
Another exciting thing during A-Week was when we ordered two pizzas this size.
I met Doug Fiefia through the Alumni Association and earlier in the spring my roommates and I were on his campaign team. He was running for ASUSU President, similar to student body president. That was super exciting, PLUS his family made us dinner after every meeting. I am glad I was able to get to know multiple people through his campaign. It is amazing how many great people you meet when you are involved, PLUS you make memories. Some of my favorite from the campaign, overall, would be painting the A-Frames in the butt cold weather and the Dirty Thirty (30 minute dance, no longer no shorter).
Oh, and of course, Doug Won!

Ok, so the last exciting thing before finals was the End of the Year Bash. I only went to one day of the bash, and that was to the concert. The bands that came this year were awesome! It was He is We, The Ready Set, and Parachute. I was on the Floor, close to the stage. Let me just say that I had a hold of Will's, the lead singer from parachute, sweat rag, but no, a bunch of boys decided they wanted it more... But I didn't really care to be honest.
All three of the bands were super amazed, at least that is what they said, at how many people were in attendance. They are bands that usually play in smaller venues, but the spectrum was FILLED!!
After the concert we went with some friends from Old Farm to Hyde Park Canyon and had a pallet bon fire! And I am proud to say that I have now roasted a marshmallow on a real wooden stick. Why had I never done this before? All I can come up with is that the metal sticks seemed more sanitary.
Finals went perfect! My finals week wasn't too filled with test, only one, actually, for español. I had finals in all my other classes too, but they were spread out across the last four weeks of the semester.
Well, no more classe... BIG WHOOOOOOP!
