Hello?
Hi! How are you doing today? I guess it's night time. How are you doing tonight?
Just got back from a 2.5 astronomy class so...tired?
Haha wow that is a long class! Why is it so late? Do you look at the stars?
No kidding. That's just the time it was offered that I could take it. Kind of? We're in the planetarium in the ESC
Yeah I understand. Thats still a late class though. I can't imagine there even being a professor who wants to stay up that late teaching. But I guess there is. I've never been in there. Is it pretty cool?
Well...Professor is a little crazy...but she's great.  I mean it's only once a week so it's not that bad.
Yeah thats not that bad. So are you an astronomy major or are you just taking the class for fun?
Definitely. At least the planetarium. I don't have any other classes in there. She can show basically anything on the planetarium: star motions, planetary motions, supernova simulations, etc. Haha I used to want to, but I'm an English major (...soon to be switching to an Editing major...)
Oh I see that really cool! Do they do like demonstrations in there and stuff? I think I heard they have shows but I've never gone. Would you say they are worth going to? And that's cool that youre an english/editing major! That is a good skill!
Yes! They do have shows. I would definitely say yes...as long as you're one of those people that can stay awake in a warm dark room with reclining chairs... Haha thanks. It'll be interesting. Glad that I found out that Editing is now a major.
Hmmmm I don't know if that's me I would probably fall asleep honestly. Yeah Editing is cool! I mean I would never want to do it because I would get bored but I understand that it's a lot of work and probably one of the more important aspects of putting together a book or a movie or anything for that matter. What type of editing do you want to do?
Basically me...everytime she turns off the lights for the planetarium I'm out. Haha true that. I mean, I really like science too, so maybe something for National Geographic or other science magazines, for adults or kids. Maybe helping in a museum advertising area Editing fiction/fantasy books would be pretty awesome too though
Seriously haha it's so hard when you are so tired all the time because school is a beast and then you just find yourself in a nice dark room. I feel asleep in a microbiology lab once. So if I can sleep there I would definitely be out in the planatarium. Oh thats cool! I hope you get into the program and find a fun job! Do you have to apply to the program or do you just do it?
Right? I literally fall asleep everywhere. It's a blessing and a curse. Kind of? I have to fill out an application to switch, but I'm not sure if that's because it's so new or because it's really competitive, or some other reason...
well there is an application to switch majors in general. Maybe it's that. But I don't know for sure. How long have you been at BYU?
Probably hope that one. Hope it's not as competitive as the medical programs... Haha one semester. Fresh out of HS
Nice. How are you liking it so Far?
Pretty good! It's different being on campus and living without parents though...but the experience has been good to meet a bunch of new people
Yeah thats awesome! I remember my first semester. It was a blast. Has there been anything that has been difficult to adjust to or anything you wish you knew before coming?
...not really? I feel like everything that has been "hard" is just things that come with the personal experience and can't really be specifically warned about. Probably finding a social group? Though I play a lot of Ultimate so I guess that counts
What do you think can't be specifically warned about? Anything in particular? (I'm asking because I'm sort of working on a website to help with this). But thats cool that you play ultimate. I played ultimate in high school all the time. It's so fun.
Ohhh, ok. Let me think...uh, I guess just little things like how to adjust to church (I come from a really small branch with a much wider age range),  how organize the fridge, Organizing time, eating healthy... choosing to go home between classes or staying on campus...whether to do intramurals or clubs or both or neither Ultimate is the best! Were you on a team or club? Or just with friends?
Okay! Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I'm working on Something right now just on the side. I don't have that much content yet but I have a few things up. I just played with friends.
Is it for a class?
No it's just for fun and to help. I've been at BYU a while and Iwant to help people that are newer to have a good experience. Anyway. I have to go now! I have a lot of homework to do. but It was nice chatting!
