Who Would Have Thought?

Well, things are going very well right now. I tried out for the ballroom dance team, and I made it! I am now on the beginning ballroom dance team! It is so much fun, it's awesome, but it is going to be a lot of work (I am having fun with it though, it is great). This weekend I am going to a "mountain retreat" up the canyon with the team (all 60 of us), and that is going to be so much fun, I am so excited, but there is a lot I have to get done before them. Just to clear things up a bit, there are three teams total, the beginning (that's me!), intermidiate, and Touring (advanced) teams, with 10 couples in each, or at least it is easier to say couples, it's not really, I don't even have a partner (at least not yet), and it just seems like I'm going to be dancing with everyone, no complaints here though.

Anyways, moving on, my classes are going well, although I feel a little overwhelmed at times, and life is going well, except for the stress level that I have, but that's nothing that can't be fixed, and I am taking a meditation class, so that should help out a lot. I am also thinking about posting my poems on my website, so I will put a link on there as soon as they are done (writing poetry for my writing class, but it is a lot of fun). I am also going to be adding some more pictures, but that is going to have to wait for a little bit, until I have time to go through my pictures, choose the ones I want, and then to actually edit them so they are websafe, and then put them on my jump drive and then post them on the internet (complicated I know, but that's the process). For right now, that's about everything that I can think of that is note-worthy, and life is still going great.

Happy New Years

Well, it is now the new year (almost a couple of weeks into it). And things are going great! Just started a new semester here at SUU, and for anyone who didn't see, I've added a new page to my website with pictures from on campus. Yes, I know there aren't a lot of pictures. Yes, I am planning on adding some more. I happen to have about 300 pictures on my computer right now. However, I do not have internet access, so I have to choose and edit the pictures before I even come to the computer lab if I hope to add more, and I don't even think to do that most of the time. Anyways, backtracking a little bit, this new semester is going to be a lot of fun, I am in a ballroom dance class (again, I just can't get enough), and while I am on the subject I am thinking about trying out for the team on the 17th. Also, I am taking a few English classes, one is on literature (we are studying the Gothic genre which means Dracula, Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and a few of Edgar Allen Poe's poems. I am also in creative writing (which should be fun, maybe I'll even post some of my work here). I am also thinking about taking a Meditation class through the Karate club here on campus, I only have to come up with $50 by mid-term, and a yoga mat (not sure why, but that is the way it is).

I did have a weird dream last night, I was dreaming about a situation like the movie "I am Legend," it was very interesting. Anyhow, I have some homework I've got to finish, so I'll just put in a little bit more later.
