You know those moments when you pause and think, Is this really happening? Am I really here? I have those ALL the time. Recently, I have had a lot of changes and opportunities that I felt blessed to have. After spending the summer at Zion Ponderosa Ranch and Resort, I have learned a few lessons. One of those is do not let anyone put you down. Another thing I learned is to be positive even when everyone around you is not. It was a great experience. There was a lot of things that I know I would not have been able to do had I not been there. I really miss the place, but civilization is good too.
After Ponderosa, school began. It's gonna be a great year, but a hard one. I am taking 12 credits and 2 institute classes. I will be working. I may take more institute classes. I am taking German, Balancing work and family, psychology, rape aggression defense and water aerobics. I really just enjoy being here I love my roommates. I love my friends. I love where I live. I love cooking my own food. It is funny the things you learn to appreciate in life. I love Utah State. I love the life I live and live the life I love.
Oh and here's a hint about being happy, it is really easy. Just remember that no matter what is happening in the world or your life, it could always be worse. So help someone out, their situation may be worse than yours, and helping them could be the thing that will make both of your days :)
NO ONE LIKES A FROWNY FACE, CHANGE IT FOR A SMILE, MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE BY SMILING ALL THE WHILE. :)
