Now I use my right hand for everything

The last person but them return the ball back to the person who threw it to them and all the way back to the first person in line. The first team to throw it all the way down and back wins. I was the second to last person in the line. I threw it to the last person and they threw it back. When I went to catch the ball it tipped off my glove and split open my lip and gum.

January
            I transfer to Brigham Young University in Provo because Idaho does not have a civil engineering program.

March
            My parents are vacationing in Florida and decide to put a down payment on a vacation home down there. So exciting!
June
            I visit Jamie Comer (my roommate from my first semester at BYU-Idaho) in her home country of Alaska. It was an awesome 10 days! We went around Anchorage before driving to Valdez, which is her hometown. While in Valdez we went hiking and halibut fishing and just enjoyed each other’s company before she was to leave on her mission.







August
            14th- Evan and I celebrate our twenty first birthday in Atlantic City with Adam, Jordan and Chris Houston. We went to Mixx nightclub and had a great time. Evan had a drink count on his arm and had a goal of getting to 21. Since I don’t drink I had a kiss count on my arm and the goal was to get 21 kisses on the lips by the end of the night.
            21st (about)- My mom and I start making the road trip down to our new house in Florida. We stop in North Carolina at my Uncle Walt (my mom’s brother) and Aunt Jen’s house. After we leave North Carolina we wind up meeting up with my Uncle Joe (my dad’s brother), Aunt Lillian, cousin Steven, and his fiancé for dinner in Jacksonville. Then we stop in Orlando for my last Wawa before heading back to school. I can’t believe Wawa has made it all the way to central Florida!
            We make it to our place by 10 at night only to discover that one of the air conditioners is broken and the other one has low batteries so we can’t set it. The house is 93 degrees. We wind up spending the night in a hotel, which was a terrible end to a long drive (that the last 3 hours were in pouring rain). Everything worked out and I got to enjoy out new house for about a week before coming back to school

September

I didn’t get to bed until 6 in the morning!
            4th- I start my second semester in a row at the first college since starting school.
February

 highest executive officer. I’m so excited to not only be one of the founding member of the student 

chapter here but also I’m excited to be one of the founding executive officers.
