A New School with New friends and a New Boyfriend

School so far has been incredibly exciting. I don't exactly like having 8:00 classes every morning. I can never really judge the time it takes to get from my room to the music building. I have made it in as little as 3 minutes, which is very impressive. (I woke up late once or twice...with 5 min till my first class). A lot has happened since my last blog entry. Within the first few weeks of school I managed to gain more than expected. Michael and I started dating. It has been going extremely well. I don't know if two people can be much happier with each other than we are. :) I have been going to church at the Boone Branch. It is quite small. Their chapel is about the size of our relief society room. (well...maybe a tad bigger than that, but it's really small). The people there are all wonderful! It was pretty funny because I actually ran into some people who I actually knew (one of them being one of my older sister's old friends). I have made friends with many, if not all, of the single adults (there aren't very many...maybe 10). I have also spent a lot of time with Christa and Michael together. We sometimes go over to her house and watch episodes of News radio, or something of the sort. It's pretty exciting stuff. Sometimes we go up to the parkway, which is just beautiful, and we will drive around to different overlooks and star gaze or talk. I have been having a great time.

My classes are all going well. Some are kind of tough, and I have to sit down and force myself to do homework, but I am enjoying most of them splendidly! I am taking Music theory, Aural Skills, Voice Class, Performance seminar, Applied Trombone, Marching band, folklore and fairy tales, Psychology, and Philosophy. Class is great. My favorite so far is probably psychology.

Anyways...I am heading back to the east coast for Labor day weekend, which should be great fun!

I'm going to go for now!

Love you all!
