I'm Going to be a Nurse

I found out yesterday that I GOT INTO THE BYU NURSING PROGRAM!! I start next semester, so in three years from December, I will be a nurse!

Fulfilling my Civic Duties

 I love voting. I think it is such an important opportunity that so many people take for granted. Get out there and vote, people!

Those who stay away from the election think that one vote will do no good: 'Tis but one step more to think one vote will do no harm. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

As Promised

We got a new faucet today! You can turn it on the highest pressure and it won't even spray your shirt :)

(Please excuse the dirty dishes...)

Hello world, I'm Crafty

Oh hey, I'm crafty now. These pictures can speak for themselves :)

Also, I made pumpkin sugar cookies. They were cute AND delicious :)

Welcome to my Home

I have been living in Provo for 57 days now so I figured it was time to actually show you where I live.

I live in apartment #14.


This is our living room. We're still working on decorations. Although, at this point, I'm not sure it will ever happen.


This lovely little partition is a coat closet in the front and the pantry in the back. (And yes, two of my roommates are from Texas. Also, sorry about my stupid collage. I couldn't make it look any better than this.)



This is the kitchen. We have all the necessities except a garburator, a.k.a garbage disposal. We're getting a new faucet any day because ours in old and yucky and sprays your shirt every time you turn it on. I have also heard rumor that we're getting another fridge... :)

 
This is the part of the pantry. The shelf that has Western Family fruit loops is mine :)


Then you walk past the chastity line (where no boys are allowed) and on the left you see my bathroom and my Elvis :) Oh, and that's my bedroom door on the very right.


On the right is the vanity and the other bathroom at the end of the hall. Right here on the very right is my bathroom storage (see next picture).

The top two shelves are mine. I got the best ones :)

This is my room. My bed on the left, Tiff's on the right. It looks very similar to last year. I enjoy it.

 
This is my half of the room with my bed and desk. All pretty normal.

This the the closet. It's awfully tight. It doesn't look that tight but that's just because I hadn't done laundry in quite a while.

I took these pictures on the day we had cleaning checks. Nice, right? Well, now you know where I live. What do y'all think?

p.b.

I really am going to blog something substantial, you know, something that's actually going on in my life, but I have one more test tonight. Until that is over, I will leave you with some police beats :)

Oct. 5: A person has been seen in the Widstoe lab leaving suspicious notes on green tape on the lab counter. The notes have said things like "super nice," "nice," and "good job." The man has entered the lab and left these suspicious notes several nights in a row. Officers suspect he might be the boyfriend of one of the lab workers.

Oct. 7: In lot 48, a black Toyota was parked against a hill and the windows were fogged up. When the officer approached, he discovered a male and female in the car. After running the plates on the car, the officer noticed the owner of the car is banned from UVU's campus for a sex offense. The officer warned the young woman that her companion was dangerous. The woman assured him that she was fine and the officer left.

Oct. 7: The southwest gate on West Campus Drive was damaged when a car drove through it.

Oct. 5: Two male students were arguing over dating. One was having a difficult time getting dates and was telling the other student about it. The second student joked that he didn't have a difficult time getting dates and he could date the other student's mother. The first student took offense and slammed the second student against a wall and brandished a knife. Upon arrival, the police arrested the first student for aggravated assault. However, the second student decided to not press charges, so the first student was released.

This weeks were really good. I laughed out loud, to myself, for quite a while. :)

Sept. 17: Custodial staff reported a spill of about 15 gallons of water mixed with a white powdery substance in a pool filter room in the Richards Building. The powder was sodium hypochlorite, a chemical used in pool filtration systems. After testing several puddles of the spill, one was found to have a pH level of 5 and was producing a small amount of chlorine gas. The gas was only slightly toxic and no injuries resulted.

Sept. 7: Campus Police received a call at 7 a.m. saying a bat was flying around in the Wilkinson Center. An officer was dispatched, who then opened a door, and the bat flew out.

Sept. 8: Worried students at Helaman Halls phoned police after they smelled burning rubber.  When they arrived at the scene, the officers discovered that it was auxiliary services using a grinder.
