Hello everyone!
It's been a long while since I updated here (as well as in my personal journal, shame on me) but I have been so busy with finals, packing to come home, a tire blowing up on the way home, moving bedrooms, the family business and work, that I barely have to do anything! In fact, my stuff isn't even all unpacked! Yesterday my Mom was nice enough to unpack all of my clothes and help tidy up my new bedroom! I also have a bunch of study abroad homework that I need to finish as well as packing for that trip as well as re-packing for school!
I recently got back from a trip down to Utah for a small Smith family reunion. It was so much fun and I had a great time with almost all the cousins and Aunt and Uncles. I can't believe I will be back in Utah (even if it is just to fly out of the airport) in less than a month! Life is flying by and I can't help but feel a few steps behind.
I've been going to the YSA branch we have here, and finally convinced my friend Lauren to transfer her records to the Branch from our family ward. Now I just have to do the same with Alli!
Rebecca and I have been talking a lot. About Doctor Who mostly, but its fun! No one else likes talking fandom with me and so I appreciate one of my "big sisters" participating in it with me.
When we were at the family reunion, my Mom and I brought up the idea of forming a Ragnar team for next year, so I have to train for that! Yesterday my friend Michael invited me to go hiking. I invited Lauren and three other people from the YSA Branch came. It was really fun and a great work out! Work has been pretty average, not super stressful, which is a relief. However I, unfortunately, have to work today (on Sunday) which I never wanted to do, however Brittin will be working with me tonight as well! How ironic is it that they scheduled two of the three LDS girls that work at DQ to work Sunday night? But we are working on training four new employees. Once they get the handle on things, no more Sunday shifts for me!
At this point I had to pause and think if there was anything else I wanted to add to this post, but I think that is qualifies as getting everyone fairly caught up, after all there are some things that I want to save for later and some things that I just don't want to post.
Happy Sunday!
Sydney
