2011 happenings

So maybe it has been eleven months since I have blogged... I'm not even going to say anything about that... haha

Things have been going pretty well for me. Fall and Winter semesters were pretty difficult, I took a total of 6 chemistry classes. It was hard but I got through it. I am officially done with organic chemistry! Winter semester I got a tutor, I don't know what I would have done if I didn't. It totally saved my life. BYU has two minisemesters in the in summer, one is called Spring and one Summer. The semesters are half as long, and you take have as many credits, but it moves pretty quickly. I took a chemistry lab and a physics class Spring semester. It was seriously hard and time consuming. My chemistry class was 16 hours a week IN CLASS. Not including the time I spent on homework! And physics is just not my thing, so let's just say when finals for spring came, I was done! I'm not taking Summer classes. I just needed a break! The day after finals I went home to Texas for 3 weeks. It was exactly what I needed! There was a Fitt family reunion (my mom's side) in South Padre Island, celebrating Allison's birthday, babysitting for five days, and just hanging out with my parents. I thought three weeks would be plenty, but it wasn't :/ I was still sad to leave! So I decided that I am coming back out to Texas in August! It will be fun to see everyone and hang out with my parents!

Since I am not in school right now I have a fair amount of free time on my hands. It has been so nice! I've actually been able to do some reading for fun! I've read The Heart and the Fist by Eric Greitens which I highly recommend! I just really enjoy these nonfiction books about people trying to make a difference in the world! He is an incredible person! I also just finished The Help by Kathryn Stockett. I've been meaning to read it for a long time, I've heard so many good things about it, and not with the movie coming out I wanted to read it first! I'm so glad I did. I really enjoyed that one as well!

Well that's it for now. Hopefully I can slowly start catching up on things!
