Hello?
Hello!
How's it going?
It's going well. How are you doing?
Just reading my astronomy textbook
That's cool! I took Astronomy last fall. Are you enjoying the class?
Definitely! Though I'd probably enjoy it more if it wasn't 2.5 hours in the dark and with reclining chairs
That is so true. Sometimes it is so hard to stay awake in that class! That planetarium is super cool though!
Right? The first time my professor used it, it almost felt like we were spinning in our seats
It's seriously the best. Over the summer, I went to the Museum of the Rockies in Montana, and they had a Planetarium similar to the one at BYU. It was really cool. What are you studying?
Haha I was just in Montana over the weekend. I'm an English major but I found out that they're making Editing a major and not just a minor, so I'm thinking of switching
Really? That's cool. What part? I attended college there last semester. That's too bad about the switch. Good luck with that!
Yep, it was for an Ultimate Frisbee tournament in Missoula. Haha thanks, I don't think any of my major classes for English will transfer to Editing...not that I took that many though
That sounds fun. I've always been terrible at frisbee, so I would love to watch people play who were actually good at it, haha! That's too bad. What year are you?
I love playing Frisbee! I've gotten better in the past year though, used to be reeeeaaal bad at it. I'm a freshman
Sweet! I seriously can only throw the frisbee somewhat close to where I aim if I warm up for like a half hour, haha! How do you like BYU so far?
Haha I know my first throws of a day are usually super off. I'm loving it! (Love McDonalds) It's just so different from HS and it's great.
That's great! I love BYU's atmosphere. It makes me happy and helps me to be somewhat distracted from all of the school/ life stress!
It's really nice to be around people that share the same standards, and see that we can all still be unique in our own ways. And it's great to be around people that understand the church "lingo" :)
Yeah, for sure! Attending school in Montana REALLY made me realize that when I came back.
I got a glimpse of it at the tournament. We played a Montana team and they were drinking/smelled of beer and were swearing and just made me feel uncomfortable. Most of them were nice, but it was still kind of weird
Yeah, it's a hard adjustment for sure. That doesn't surprise me. The people are great, but I feel like most of them don't know how to have true fun. They think they have to be drunk or high to enjoy themselves. It was really sad to me. They were close to so many places to hike, adventure, etc. and didn't take advantage of it!
I know!! My roommates and I always have random spurts where we're all just being crazy and hilarious and the only thing we're being high on is...chips...or something....
That's the best about roommates. Do you like yours? I feel like everyone has stories about at least one crazy roommate, but I've always had really good ones!
They're pretty solid. We're not all the same kind of crazy but same enough that we mesh pretty well.
I get what you mean. I'm glad it still works out for you guys!
It was funny the first week of school, we all bought the "essential" foods, so there were literally 6 dozen eggs, 6 loaves of bread and 6 gallons of milk and a bucketload of cheese in the fridge
I'm assuming you have five other roommates then? I only have three, but I had five last year. My fridge still looks like that, haha!
Yeppers. One of them I don't see very often b/c she's always with relatives (the whole Tongan thing where everyone is your relative) but she's still super chill and really fun *funny
I used to play softball with some Tongans. They are so chill. I loved it!
They are awesome. She literally "has hair down to her butt" (quoting another roommate) and it's awesome. Though a couple strands got caught in the bathroom and were just blowing around, so that was...fun
That's the worst! My roommate and I both have really long hair, and I swear it ends up everywhere! I just got a patient here at work, so I have to go, It was good talking to you!
