Sweet beginnings

I have completed my second day of this new chapter of my life. Its has been filled with fun new adventures and new people. Yesterday I started my day bright and early at 6:30am just like the good ole mission days("Hit the clock its 6:30"). I did NOT want to get up. I had stayed up way too late the night before blogging and facbooking and of course when I finally got into bed I couldn't sleep. So as tired as I was I got up and got ready for work. I headed out about 10 till forgetting about traffic in this big city. Luckily I arrived to work at the same time as my boss and his family, about 3 min after 8. I thought to myself, "I'll be getting along with them just fine, we can be late buddies." Ha. (I'm hardly ever on time to anything)
Express Employment Professionals is my place of work as it was in Cedar. It is a staffing agency that does temporary work and permanent work as well. I got lucky enough not to have to find a different job just a new job in a different city. Because I had already been a staffing agent I was put right to work. John and Donna, who own this branch of the company, helped me learn who they work with in the area. Then not too soon after they had me fill a job order. I felt like I had no idea what I was doing, though I did, but I didn't know the employees like I knew my employees in Cedar. After some studying I felt better about sending a stranger to a job I didn't know much about. John and Donna are going on vacation on Thursday so they were so happy that I am there to help keep the company functioning while they are gone. They seem to have a lot of confidence in me already. But who couldn't love me. Haha! So work went well then I had lunch at home and headed off to school.
Biology 1010 was my first class. As boring as it was I thought the professor was hilarious so hopefully make that class more enjoyable. After I had Ethic and Values. This one is going to be interesting. The class only has about 20 people which I thought odd for a required general ed class. It is going to be a discussion almost every class time and usually I like to keep my opinions to my self in a class room setting but this one is going to force me to voice it. Overall I quite enjoyed school. Who knew? Me, enjoy school. It did in fact happen. I might not be saying that when I have to spend every waking moment reading one of my freakin expensive books. After class I went to the book store because I needed to read before the next class period. I paid $308 for two books. Ridiculous.
Since moving to a new place one would think I'd be making new friends but I'm catching up with a bunch of friends from Cedar that are up here. I went to Dinner with Kenz, one of my dear friends from SUU and her friend, my roommate, and another one of their friends. We went to Brick Oven apparently a staple of Provo. It was a fun night but I was completely exhausted by the end of it.
Today work was quite busy with filing job orders I wasn't comfortable with. I spent a lot of time going over and over employee files studying their job histories. They do things a little different than we did in Cedar. We would put so many notes in files about what people are willing to do and can do but here they don't have any. I just had to look at job histories. Not much to work with. I feel like there isn't as much working with our associates as there should be. But I'm sure I'll learn soon enough how to do things their way.
My class today was Intro to Education. I liked this class too. We will be doing 20 hours in the field so I need to find a school I can do that at. I really liked my teacher for this class too. Dr. B, as he likes to be called, is about 80 years old, or though it seems. He made lots of joke about getting up set with people and said that he would "pinch their heads" haha. Funny old man.
Tonight I went to a move with another friend from Cedar, Stacy. We saw Paris at Midnight. I liked the story a lot but I felt like an idiot at some parts. It is a movie about a writer who meets famous writers like Hemingway and a bunch of other famous writers and artists from that era. Everyone in the audience was laughing and I had no idea who any of these people were. I had heard of a few but couldn't tell you what they did. Ha. It was a very cute story and had good actresses and actors in it. And it was clean. Yay.
It has been a good few days. I haven't really gotten to hang out with my roommates a lot but I love all of them already. I am going to have a great time with them. Right now we are watching Anastasia. What girl doesn't love that movie. We are quoting all of our favorite parts and singing along with all the songs.
I need to be getting to bed soon. I'm sorry this blog is kinda a play by play of my daily life but soon I'll have something exciting to express my feelings about. (Which is so unlike me)
Peace out.

It's all about to begin

Well... Here it is. My blog. I figured since I was away from friends and family I'd create a blog so everyone is in the know about my life. So enjoy this first post!

As of yesterday I'm officially in Happy Valley. So here is the back story:

When I was near the end of my mission I tried and tried to get back into school at SUU. Neither my mom nor I could get things to work out so I could go back to school for spring semester. When I did get home I was offered a job so I decided to put school on hold until the fall. During this time I had the feeling I didn't belong in Cedar anymore. Almost all of my friends had either gotten married, moved away or just moved on with thier life like they were supposed to. I didn't really tell anyone I wanted to move becuase I had a job, was planning to go back to school at SUU and I had no reason to move. As time progressed I still felt the same way, that Cedar City had nothing left for me. My best friend decided to move up to Orem so I finally had a reason to go up there. Well, as you might know things didn't work out for here and she is back in Cedar. But my decision had been made. I had registered for school and was set on starting something new.  So, I started looking for a place to live and somewhere to work. Of course I procrastinated just about everything I could but with ease I found a place to live for much cheaper than anywhere else I looked and wouldn't you know I found a job just as easily. My days in Cedar are over for now and I'm looking forward to this new begining. I will be working part time and going to UVU full time studying Elementary Ed. I am living in a house in Provo with a bunch of fun girls. I think I'm going to like what is ahead. I might be all alone up here but I know that this is where I am supposed to be. I've found the right path and now I just need to follow it the best I can.

It's all about to begin.
