SNOW STORM

My very first memory of Utah State goes back to way before I had ever made the decision to come to school up here. I was a Senior in high school and I was visiting campus for an interview. I can remember sitting in the Eccles Conference Center in the middle of campus and looking out the window at the quad and the pine trees around the building. As I sat there it began to snow giant puffy flakes. It was an awesome sight. After a few minutes the snow had begun to accumulate and there were students everywhere walking from one class to another. Someone gathered a snowball from the ground and chucked it across the pathway  at one of his friends. It looked like so much fun to be a college student on campus at Utah State!

Old Main and the Quad! 

Now fast forward however many years later... I have spent many winters up here in Logan. We have, I guess what you could call, a love-hate relationship. This Winter has been extremely love-hate! Right now it is love! This weekend we have had so much snow! It has almost been snowing for 2 days straight, at least 8 inches or so. It makes Logan so beautiful! Take a look at these pictures!

My apartment parking lot... not that pretty compared to campus.

Hello Walk, covered in snow

This is what you come to at the top of Old Main Hill! Its worth the climb!

Activities Galore

Whats up everybody!

I'm sitting here in the Student Center computer lab reminiscing about all of the activities that I have been able to go to since the new semester started. I've just got to say... Putting all of the educational value aside (which Utah State has a TON OF!) The value of the friends that you make and the activities/memories that you get to make at this place is second to none! Tonight, there is currently a mini golf course being set up by the Sig Ep's throughout the TSC complete with black lights, there is a 'USU's Got Talent' show going on across campus, and there are countless club meetings going on right now that anybody can get involved with.

I wanted to highlight some of my favorite events so far. Last Saturday there was another Po Bev. If you don't know what Po Bev is, I wrote about Poetry and a Beverage a few weeks ago. This time they gave out free mugs with the drinks! Talk about a deal!

I wish my camera could do this dance justice, but You get the idea.

On Friday, there was a 30's dance in the Alumni House. There were easily over 500 people at this dance. I always love the 30's dances because they are only 30 minutes, so everybody dances their little hearts out for a solid 30 minutes then, we all take a break, and it's on to the next activity.

Killer Whale, Monster, Lion, Penguin! This balloon artist was AMAZING!

Last week, there was a back to school BASH. They showed the movie 'Pitch Perfect' in the Student Center Ballroom. They also had some photo booths, face painting, henna tattoos and my favorite... A BALLOON ARTIST! I asked her to make me a monster and she did! Check out the picture.

New Year, New Semester

Goodbye last semester. Happy Holidays. NEW YEAR! and hello next semester. All of this is such a blur! Life moves along too fast.

New Years Party in Salt Lake City, Utah

This semester is going to be a BLAST! I am a member of some of the coolest clubs. I am participating in 2 internships and my classes are all really fun. Utah State has so many opportunities around every corner that not a moment goes by that I wish something was different. There are too many good things... as the saying goes, sometimes life gives you too many lemons. What am I supposed to do with all of these lemons!

I can't wait to share this semesters new adventures with y'all! Get ready for a CRAZY trip!
