Life is Complicated...

Hello Blogger World!

Sorry that I have not been able to indulge all the secrets of my life to you. I have been busy living life. :)

Here is a few of the things that I have gotten to do in the past few weeks:
  • Going Home to Mesa, AZ for 67 Hours
  •  
    • Chow with Grandpa and Grandma
    • Hanging with the family
    • Garage-Saleing with my mom (FAVORITE SUMMER ACTIVITY!!) 
    • Attending one of my best friend's wedding and seeing friends that I haven't seen in two whole years!!




  • Starting Summer Term
    • 3 New Classes
    • New term with new mentoring students
    • New Office Hours
    • Unofficial Mentor Hangouts
    • Fun days of "Hubbing" (meaning spending time in a glorious place called the Hub)
    • Summer Kick Off (which was seriously the most fun thing in the world!)
    • Watching Cosmo go through an obstacle course
    • Studying for tests and writing papers that are due next week
Yeah. So that has been my life.

As the title said, life is complicated. I wish that it could be a lot easier. I wish that I could say the things that I want to say without consequences. But there are consequences. So my mouth stays shut. I have never been one to take risks.That has just never been my gift. So life will remain complicated. It may be complicated, but in the end....
Come what may and love it!

Becoming Myself: A Year in the Making

I have never really had the opportunity to be myself. I have always felt the need to hide who I really am because of those around me. The first time I remember doing this was in third grade. My third grade teacher was strict. This is much more than just the normal "mean teacher"- she would threaten to hang us by our toenails in the corner if we did not behave. Before third grade, I was very outgoing, but I lost that because of fear. It just went deeper and deeper as the years went on. My freshman year of college, I told myself that I was going to start new. I tried to be myself, but it was really hard. Then with roommate issues, I turned back into my shell. I hid who I was. The next year, I moved in with the"friends" that I had made Freshman year. 4 girls who I thought I could trust through everything. Things happened and by the time winter semester came, my two best friends moved out to go on missions and the other two girls who I had known since Freshman year ...

Freshman Mentoring?

You want me to be honest? I really have no idea what Freshman Mentoring is or what it is good for. But it is required, so I have to do it. I had to sign up for a 'bundle'. The first bundle I signed up for was just a general writing class. I am actually very excited for it! I hope that it won't be too hard, but I also hope that I learn a lot. Oh, and did I mention that it is at 8 am! Sigh...I think this will actually be better in the long run. Hopefully... The second bundle I signed up for was suggested for elementary education majors. It combines biology and human development. Basically, all that means is a lot of people will be in both classes with me. I am excited for this, so that I will be get to know people with the same major. Also, I think these will be some of my favorite classes. I am actually excited that my college schedule is forming. It makes me so excited to see my future falling into place. CRAZY!

Lily- Your Birth Story

I love reading birth stories. And I love being able to look back at my birth stories to remember the little details. Here are my past birth stories: Mitch's Birth Story Nate's Birth Story Every birth is so unique, but having a baby in the middle of a pandemic is completely different. With that- on to my 3rd birth story... Lily Girl- We were so excited to have you join our family. We were excited to have little pink socks and little dresses in our home. But let me tell you- your pregnancy was the absolute hardest for me compared to the boys. Let me start at the beginning... We found out we were pregnant in January. We were so excited. The week that I found out that I was pregnant, I started experiencing severe cramps on one side. I was so worried for a ectopic pregnancy or another miscarriage. I called the doctor and was asked to come in for some blood tests. I went in and found out my numbers were on the lower normal end. They sent me in for a ultrasound to rule out an ectopic ...
