Even though I finally got a picture of the leaves, this wasn't exactly what I wanted but I still think it's a pretty cool picture (if I do say so myself). The Howl was pretty fun. I think it was kind of built up, but from what I saw it was pretty fun! There were lots of interesting costumes, lots of skin, lots of people, and lots of cops who were goggling at everything walking by. There was a black angel, an earth child, a greek queen, an album cover for pink floyd, a green lantern, a ladybug, a cavewoman, batwoman, and cleopatra (me) in our group; they were all great costumes!

There is snow constantly up in the mountains now, so it's good news for all of the skiers and snowboarders that live around here! The other day the snow stopped only about one hundred feet above us. It's a little higher now but the mountains are completely white where the snow has fallen. There is a mountain about forty five minutes away that most of the students go to called Beaver Mountain. I haven't ever been up there, but hopefully I'll be able to do some exploring this winter and experience Utah Snowboarding and possibly skiing!

I have hopefully gotten a job to get my bank account back in the positive numbers (above $0) I am going to be one of the wonderful people who calls absolutely everyone trying to take surveys that are 20 minutes long. I have training tonight so hopefully I'll make the cut! It's only a couple minutes away driving so it's super convenient and has hours that work great with my schedule. Not to mention schedule...

We're starting our new semester after we get back from Christmas Break and we're signing up for next semester's classes on friday. Freshman always get last choice so I'm super nervous for how mine is going to turn out. I want to be able to get it like I had this semester, but I guess it's just the luck of the draw to see how it turns out. I've also decided to switch to an art major, I have a really good feeling about it. I've been volunteering at Adams Elementary and have figured out that being a teacher just really isn't for me. It would be fun, but I don't know that I could handle it day after day after day. I want to have an emphasis in graphic design, and possible double in photography. I went to visit my advisor yesterday and I need to put a portfolio together to be admitted into the program. I hope I can get in! I can start taking classes for it now, but I need to be able to get into the program before I can start any specific classes. Wish me luck!
