Life in Provo

Went to sushi night with some friends last night...this was a big step for me..I HATE fish and all sea-food pretty much. I've never tried sushi, but pretty much swore that I never would because it looks so disgusting and the thought of raw fish makes me want to vomit..For some reason though, I was feeling a little crazy last night. How can I say I hate something if I've never tried it right?? I was actually very surprised that I didn't mind it, in fact there were a few kinds that I even liked. I'm not saying I would crave sushi, but if people wanted to go eat there, I don't think I'd be mad.
Been spending alot of my time hanging out at this place and doing homework :)...school is taking over my life, which is pretty much what I expected so its ok. The hard thing is that I have some weekend classes...so 6 Saturdays out of the semester I am in class from 8-5, 8 hours of class is rough going. The Saturdays when I'm not in class, I have to work all day because I have to take the time off for class, so basically I don't have a free weekend for a long, long time...I'm not sure when I'll be able to go home next, but hopefully atleast a day for Thanksgiving! I am just trying to be greatful that I am getting a good education and working at a good job, who needs a life right??

look who landed a job here? i just started working this week at Macey's Pharmacy, which is like 2 blocks from my apartment, so nice! I am working part time and they are so flexible with my school schedule, which is AWESOME :) I really like my boss he is a really nice guy and somewhat reminds me of Uncle Boyd..especially when he brought to work cucumbers and tomatoes from his garden haha..It will take me a while to get used to their system and the way that their pharmacy does things, but I feel confident that I will have it down in no time! Such a relief to get a job, I was getting nervous I wouldn't find something. Count my blessings :)

Provo in General: When I first moved here, I was wondering why I had. I moved up a week before school started so I could start job searching..so pretty much for a week, I didn't have a whole lot going on while everyone else was working and in school..Made me feel like a big loser even though I knew I was going to be start doing the same thing very soon..Now That I have started school and got a job I'm wishing I had more of that free time haha...Funny that your never satisfied with what you have, right? Now that I'm more settled in and started doing things, I feel alot better about Provo. It has been a lot of fun here, I have very cute and fun roommates. Our apartment is really cute and has a very homelike feeling to it. My ward is HUGE, biggest ward I've been in by far, but I should have figured that with being BYU's 202 ward haha..but I have met quite a few people in the ward already and it everyone is really nice and fun. School is taking up alot of time, but I wouldn't change that because I love it..Its such a good feeling when every class you feel so good that you are making the right decision. Being a therapist requires alot of time building empathy for other people. I am taught in every class how to love and understand ALL people. This is so good for everyone, not just therapists. How can I hate a field that teaches me so much love and understanding? I LOVE it! My job is really nice as I talked about above and I'm so grateful that I found such a good atmosphere to work in. So for right now, life is good and I am doing really well!
