Today is the one month mark!! I have officially been in Provo for 31 days. It most definitely doesn't feel like it's been that long! This is the longest I have ever been away from home in my entire life and It has definitely been a great experience for me! I think the longest I have been away from home is a week and it was for Girls Camp, and even then, I was surrounded by friends. I cannot believe I'm too old to go to Girls Camp!! It's always been one of my favorite weeks of the summer!

The last day of Girls Camp (Last year) |
Not knowing anyone here except for Emily has probably been the hardest thing about moving here. I am used to being outside quite a bit so being inside all day is a little hard to get used to. I have watched soooooo many TV shows and movies since I've been that I feel like I'm going to run out! I've already watched 3 seasons of Switched at Birth, 2 seasons of Say Yes To The Dress, 1 1/2 seasons of Once Upon a Time, and a bunch of movies. Not to mention, practically every episode of The Pioneer Woman that is available plus hours of other Food Network shows. Ya, my life is pretty darn exciting ;) On Tuesday, I got to register for my classes for my FIRST SEMESTER at BYUI!! That was pretty stinkin CRAZY!! For some reason, I couldn't add classes so I called and they said I had to call the registration office which didn't open till 8:00 so I got up early for nothing. So, at a little before 8, I called and they fixed it. So I started adding my classes. I have to have at least 14 credits to get one of my scholarships but one of the classes I was planning on taking was already full so I had to find another class. I had signed up for Precalculus and Chemistry and there was no way I was taking them at the same time, my first semester so when I tried to drop Prcalc, It said that Chemistry had a prerequisite that I had to do. I took calculus from BSU last year but BYUI said that I still had to do Precalc to be able to take Chemistry. So I called the registration office. They said that they couldn't do anything so they transferred me to a different department but they said that they couldn't do anything and that I needed to talk to the registration office... Oh my goodness! I told them I had just talked to the registration office so they said I needed to call my Chemistry teacher and have them okay it... On my schedule, where the teacher was supposed to be, there was no name. So I ended up just called the person in charge of the whole chemistry department and he told me I needed to talk to the registration office... Okay, after hearing that, I was a little ticked but I told him I had talked to them already so he looked up my transcript and said that my calculus credits should take care of Precalculus or something like that. Well when I went back to my schedule, I just deleted Precalculus and Chemistry, then added Chemistry by itself and everything was fine... That was a little stressful but holy moly am I glad It's done!!
Anyways, I am only going to be here for about two more months!! I can't believe how fast this first month has gone!!
