SuperStar

I love bragging about my younger siblings because honestly they are just the coolest. My little sister Brenna is currently a Sophomore and she is destined for greatness. Ever since she won the Greenville Elementary Mile in 3rd grade everyone has known she'd be a star. Watching her run is like magic. Seriously. The best part is she is completely humble about it. I'm sure a lot of her competition want to hate her but its impossible. She currently holds I think 6 or 7 school records. She's nuts. The paper has been writing about her on a weekly basis and with out fail at least three times a week I get someone congratulating me on my success and I just smile and tell them its my superstar of a younger sister. Apparently we look alike? I love her to bits. The first video below is of the 400 meter prelims at the 2011 BYU Invitational, she is the one in the light blue. I love that you can't even see the rest of the competition on the home stretch. She ended up getting a .55 in the finals. INSANE! The second video is the 4x400 Meter Relay Finals. {The wonderful voice in the background is my Grandma Porter. She's the best.}

"Give it here Malfoy or I'll knock you off your broom."

Harry Potter. I seriously just can't get enough. Those books/movies never fail to make my day. I am currently watching the latest movie right now for the first time since the premiere. So good. Sad news though is I will be in Australia for the premiere of the second half. Brenna and I are determined to go to it regardless. It actually comes out two days earlier there so not only will we be watching it in Australia if our plan succeeds but two days early. Happy day.

"Adventure is out there!"

Long time no see...

Last week my family passed through Provo on their way home from a Spring Break trip down to Zions. {so jealous!} So I stopped over at my grandparents to chill with them for a bit. Anyways, my brothers and I ended up watching Disney's UP. Okay I am obsessed! If you can't tell from the change to my blog. Honestly, the first time I watched it I thought it was a little strange and got bored with it but for some reason this time I was hooked and I can't stop thinking about it.


I think a lot of this has to do with the fact that I'm in the middle of finals week {why am I blogging right now?!} and so ready to have some adventure in my life! Seriously, I can't wait to try new things, meet new people and hopefully see a little bit of the world while I'm at it.

Oh hey remember me...

So pretty much I am the epitome of everything I dislike in a blogger. You know the ones that get you excited to read their blog so you check it like everyday because new blogs in general are just fun, let's be honest. But, alas, THEY NEVER POST! Well yep that's me. So I'm not promising I'll be any better in the future but I thought I'd at least catch you up on whats been going on in my life which is quite a bit considering its been 4 months... my bad.

As far as school goes it been pretty good. The semester is almost over! I can't wait to start fresh! Especially now that I have a better hang of school. I have loved learning in the college setting. My favorite class this semester would probably have to Comparative Politics. Its been so interesting learning about our world and understanding it just a little better.



My family has always been BYU sports followers so its been a lot of fun to actually go to the games in person.





My ward has been awesome! I was lucky enough to be called as a home evening group leader with an great partner , Sterling. Its been a lost of fun.




I have met so many great girls. I love the Stover 2200 girls!




I've also been luck enough to spend loads of time with this little gem. My cousin Kylie and I have been besties since forever so its been so fun to get to spend everyday together if we so desire... which we usually do. She is such an amazing example to me and I love her to bits!

So this picture will not flip around no matter what I do so i just gave up. This is my roommate Lindsey and I. She has been awesome! These pictures are from Harry Potter opening night at 3:20 baby! So worth it! She was Bellatrix and I was Luna.

Growing up...YIKES!!

I have finally decided to join the blogging community after being the biggest blog stalker known to man...


So I have officially been moved out for 6 days! I miss my family so much but I am loving it here so far! It still blows my mind that I'm actually at BYU. Its been a goal of my since forever and now that I'm actually here I don't quite know what to do with myself. I decided to try out the true freshman experience so I'm am living in the dorms at Helaman Halls. All the girls are so great and I can't wait to get to know them better. Classes start tomorrow and I am pretty much FREAKING OUT!! Ha wish me luck.



Here's is a little view of my room.



My roommate Lindsey chillin' at her desk. She's great!



Okay this is a nasty picture but I had to share this. So directly across the hall from me, like I open my door and I'm looking at her door, live Brooke Porter! I still can't believe we have the same name! Its nuts! She is awesome and I can't wait to get to know her better.



Girl's soccer game...of course it POURED rain!


We couldn't be at BYU without hiking the Y... its freaking death...but it was a lot of fun!
