So in my last post I talked about how I was planning on staying in Utah this fall to save money and such. I was excited for this plan for a few weeks, but then it wore off and I was dreading coming back to Utah for that long. Everyday closer to the end of the semester I was so uneasy about leaving. So after I had this feeling for a few weeks, yesterday I finally sat down and made a pros and cons list. Most of the pro's of Utah were material things, while Idaho was more emotional. I mean I would love to be closer to my family, but in the end being in Utah is what I sort of wanted, while being in Idaho is what I need.

Yesterday morning I didn't have an apartment set up, roommates, or a on campus schedule for fall. After making my decision to stay everything just fell into place so quickly. Within about an hour I had an apartment, roommates and my schedule all done for fall, and any student will tell you that the schedule part is really amazing. So I know that this is what I am supposed to be doing, and I feel 100% better about life. So I will be home on break from this Saturday until September, so I will still be able to get a little bit of Utah in my life for a while and go to some family events while I am there.
My life in Rexburg has been so amazing, I couldn't imagine being anywhere right now. The people I have met up here are all so amazing.
This week is finals week so I've been so busy. Just today I've had 3 final projects/presentations due. Plus last night I didn't go to bed until 5 ish and I woke up on my couch using my binder as my pillow. Saying I'm stressed is a bit of an understatement, but after Friday morning I am all done with my finals! Hooray!
