Finally! Some Adventure!

So as of right now, my life is still not very adventurous. I get up, I go to work, every Monday Wednesday Friday i go to class, I come home, eat dinner, sometimes i do my homework and then i go to bed. BUT my friends, that is soon coming to an end and i CANT WAIT! I am getting so excited (but nervous at the same time) for my adventure to begin! This is what the rest of my summer looks like!

Wednesday of this week I pick up my cap and gown! WEIRD (maybe this time my cap will actually fit my head...when i graduated high school they placed my order as a boy so i had to use an extra cap and gown so i could be white like the other girls, not red like the boys. The extra cap was much too small for my rather large head so i had to use like 57 bobbie pins to keep in on my head, which i then forgot about when i had to take my cap off to throw it in the air at the end of graduation...needless to say I didnt end up throwing my cap.... any way... thats another story....)

Wednesday of next week I find out my student teaching placement!!! I am so excited i can hardly stand it! I just want to know! I have been like stalking out the elementary schools in the Jordan district.

Wednesday in two weeks I have my final for my class and after that I will be DONE with classes in an actual classroom. At least where I am the official student. The very next day (thursday the 23rd) I GRADUATE!!! I havent decided if I am going to commencement or not yet. But i am for sure going to my convocation! You are all invited to come! If you didnt get an invitation already it is at 8 pm in the Hinckley Chapel. The part I am probably most excited for in graduating is the simple fact that probably at least 2 of my 3 siblings will be there!! None of my siblings where there when i graduated high school and i was really bummed! but hopefully they can be there for when i graduate college! Plus My mom said that a lot of my extended family is trying to come too! YAY! The next few days i will probably just hang out with the family that is still in town.

The week after graduation is my last week at work. I am actually really sad to leave work. Probably the only thing i have actually liked about my summer. I LOVE the girls i work with and the kids are so fun and sweet! A lot of them make my day! I have like the perfect job for me. I will be really sad to leave, but SO excited for my up coming adventures!!

After my last day of work on the 31st. I have 3 or 4 days to finish packing up ALL of my junk! (i have a TON so it will probably take me the whole time!) and THEN I am going on a ROAD TRIP to Milwaukee with my sister Whitney and her kids. She wanted someone to drive back with her since her husband is flying back and i very willingly volunteered! I love road trips, and i love my sister and my niece and nephew! How could i resist??? so 3 days on the road to Milwaukee with my favorites! We will get to Milwaukee about the 8th or 9th and then I will spend a few days with them in Milwaukee before flying back to Salt Lake on the 12th of August.

I get into Salt Lake around 2. Hopefully I am feeling human enough to move into my new apt. I found out today that my one and only roommate Katie will be Greece until the 17th!! So I will have the first few days in Salt Lake all by myself! That is a little intimidating but all part of the adventure right???

After i am in Salt Lake a few days I start my student teaching!!!!! YAY! like i said i wont know what school or grade until the 15th...but as soon as i know i will post it on here! yahoo!!! Adventure HERE I COME!
