I finally did it...


Well I finally got my picture taken with Cosmo. I've had a lot of chances to get a picture with him at games and everything, but for some reason mascots give me the creeps. I don't know why and I have nothing against Cosmo, it just gives me the EBGB's whenever I see a giant stuffed animal that doesn't talk and you can never tell what they are going to do. But today I was walking to the Wilk and he just happened to be right there in Brigham Square. I just wanted a free taco but he came up behind me and started posing and waiting for a picture. So I pulled out my camera. Cosmo, I now have a picture with you, so keep your distance and I'll keep mine :)

It's Fall? What happened to Summer?

So these past couple weeks have been cold. Cold and miserable. I never knew I hated cold weather and snow so much until I had to start walking in it to school every day for 20 minutes. And then I started thinking, I never really had a summer break, and it looks like I probably won't, at least not for a very long time. Isn't that depressing? Here's how my summer went. I graduated high school in the end of May. I had three weeks until I came down to BYU and I was super stressed. During those three weeks I just packed and tried to get ready. I did have a big goodbye party for myself. I think half of the high school was there. But that's about all I did with my short "summer" break. The rest of my summer consisted of homework, tests, stressing, more homework, and a little bit of fun. After my 8 weeks at BYU, I had 2 weeks for a break. I tried to get in as much swimming, boating, and partying as I could. But it still didn't feel like I had a summer break. And it still doesn't. I'm probably just making it a bigger deal than it is, but it really is depressing. SO here are some of my pictures from my "summer."

Oouuucccchhhhh!


So I went and had allergy testing done this week. Everyone said it would be a breeze, even the doctor. She said she was going to prick me with 32 allergens and see what I reacted to. The ones that I didn't react they would have to give to me again as shots. So... I only reacted to 2 of the 32. That means I got 30 shots, on the same arm. They weren't big shots, they just stuck needles under my skin and put the stuff in. But it was still 30 shots. I found out that I am allergic to dust, cats, and some grasses and weeds. And my arm hurts.
