Finals are over! (For me at least)

So I did miserably on two finals today. I hate it when I go out of a test thinking I did well, then seeing that I was wrong. Oh well. The semester is over. Tomorrow morning, I have to do Hazcom training, make a deposit for my job uniform, take my social security card to the student employment center, clean my room, cupboard, and the bathtub, have my RA check me off, then I'm going to a birthday party for Luke, and he's taking me to the airport at around 12:30. It's going to be fun...

Tonight was the last time I'll see some of my fhe brothers. One of them isn't sure if he's coming back next semester...at least as far as I know. I hope he is, I like him. He's a fun guy. Then again, we could get a bunch of new cool fhe brothers next semester. Also, a girl in my building got engaged tonight, and a girl in the other girls' building in our ward is also engaged. It's so weird...But that is normal here at BYU. I'm honestly surprised there aren't more. First semester over. Time to go.

This isn't my first blog ever...but I'll try to remember it more than the others :)

So I'm at the end of my first semester of BYU. I've taken one final, with two more to go. This is what I've learned this semester:

1. Eat food before sitting in the hot sun at a football game and before choir concerts. i.e. fainting is not fun.
2. I shouldn't take a class at 8:30 am. But...next semester I'm going to be working at 8 every day. I guess my job is punishment for missing 5 classes this semester in my Old Testament Roots of the Book of Mormon class.
3. Doing homework helps your grade. Imagine that.
4. Not studying ever in high school makes it so I don't know how to study in college. Luckily my mad memory skills have finally decided to kick in so I don't fail my finals.
5. It's not true about all the dates people go on about that people go on at BYU. I haven't been asked out once. That doesn't mean I'm happy about that. Also, it isn't likely that a girl will get engaged her first semester at BYU. I've only heard about like...three.
6. Professors at BYU actually care about you. So different from high school. And probably any other university.
7. I am apparently depressing, even if I don't realize it. My home ward thinks I'm depressed because of Facebook. Since when do adults have Facebook anyway?
8. Laptop DVD drives are not region-free. You can only change the region on them 4-5 times. Prior to 2000, this was not the case. Also, only my brand of DVD is not able to be bypassed by firmware to make it region-free. So I can't watch my German DVDs without risking being stuck on Region 2.
9. Money is easy to lose track of when you think you have a lot. Then you have less than $100 and are somehow supposed to pay tuition for next semester. I think I'll budget better next semester.
10. Even after moving eight times, I don't make friends easily. Imagine that.

So this semester has been fun. Sometimes. I loved Women's Chorus, and I don't know what to major in anymore. I was going to major in Music Education, but I don't want music to be stressful like it is for Whitney and Courtney. Plus, I don't want to live without my true love: math. So I'm thinking either Early Childhood Education or Mechanical Engineering, with perhaps a double major in German and a minor in Music. Fun, right?

So it's not gonna be easy. It's going to be really hard; we're gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me... everyday.
