Family in town!

My Family is in town this week! I went to Billing last weekend to surprise them. My mom flew in on Sunday morning and the rest of my family drove in later that night. It was fun to see everyone. A lot of my extended family flew in last weekend as well, because my grandpa went into surgery yesterday. (He came out just fine) :-) So I have relatives in town all week from Minnesota, Alaska, Oregon and other parts of Montana. You know what the best part about having parents in town is? FREE FOOD!!! :-)

Indecisive Mother Nature

Ever heard of the phrase If you don't like the weather in Montana, wait 15 minutes? That statement couldn't be more true. Today, I woke up around 6 to thick fog, walked to school at 7 in rain, got out of the library to walk to class at 9 in snow, walked to a different class at 11 in the sun, walked out of class at 1 in hail, grabbed a snack and walked back to the library at 1:10 in the sun again... always be prepared for anything... It's kind of like a guessing game... "what will the weather be like next time I walk out side?"

...and Spring break is over:-(

Spring break flew by! As all breaks do. The first part of the break I had friends from back home in town, then I had some down time, spent some time in the library, watched a few movies, baked a cake, led four campus tours, scrubbed my kitchen and went on a few bike rides. Then I worked all day Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Today (Sunday). Now, guess where I am?... Oh weird, I am back in the library! I don't know if I will ever be able to keep up with school! Good thing one of the books I was assigned is really good! Hope everyone had a good, relaxing week! Let the last month of the semester begin!!!

Spring Break Finally!

FINALLY! Spring Break is here! and it has been snowing! Leave it to Montana to dramatically change the weather with no notice:-) I am sticking around Bozeman for Spring break. On Thursday, I had three of my good friends come to visit me from Minnesota! two of them already left and the other one leaves tomorrow. It is so fun to have visitors! Everyone have a fun and safe Spring break!!

Mustache March!

I don't know how many of you know this, but March means you need to grow a mustache. I have been working on mine since I was born and let me tell you... growing a mustache is exhausting!
OK, since I am incapable of growing a creepy mustache, I decided that to take part in mustache march, I was going to be the Official Mustache Dyer of the Month! Awesome super hero title, I know. So, I gathered a few of my fellow blonde participators, and basically gave them an ultimatum... let me dye your mustache or we go on friendship time out! They all agreed to let me practice my dying skills. In the end, all three of the mustaches turned out to be the best looking mustaches on campus! (Obviously!)

College sometimes makes me crazy

So, this semester has been the busiest semester of my life. All of the classes that I am taking require several hours per day outside of class for homework.... I wish days were 30 hours long so I could get more stuff done!!! As a result I am moving into the library today and tomorrow and reading over 1000 pages, writing papers, taking a quiz, taking a test, and studying for another one that is on Monday. I am not trying to scare anyone away from college, because they have been the three best years of my life so far. I am just saying be prepared to study hard and play harder!!!! :-)

Mali Night

Sometimes mandatory school events are quite enjoyable. My roommate has an assignment to attend a movie/dance/presentation for his poverty class. I decided to go with him because it seemed like the best way to procrastinate. It turned out to be quite an interesting night. Three Northern Cheyenne American Indians traveled to Mali, Africa to share cultures and knowledge. They put together a film of their adventure and premiered it at this Mali Night event. Some of the people that they met in Mali traveled to Bozeman for this event, and a few of the women were there as well. Food from the different cultures was served and an Indian singing group and dancers performed some of their traditional dances and songs. It was a very fun night!
