The month of May is almost over! How did that even happen??
I ended up staying at school for spring term. That means in about 4 weeks I will have been going to school for a whole 12 months. Insanity. And this whole time I have also been an RA. Sometimes I think I'm crazy for doing it for so long but I really do love it! And honestly, I feel like it is my way of serving and giving back to BYU. It has been an amazing way to get involved and I'm so grateful for the experience I've had. I'm back in Helaman Halls. Definitely different than Heritage, but it's fun nonetheless. I only have 18 girls which is the lowest I've ever had so it's been chill to say the least.
Xavier, the other RA and I, have been doing weekly Wednesday activities with our residents. The first week we played get to know you games and had otter pops, last week we had a moving party!, this week we played family feud, and next week we're having a fire and making s'mores. It's a blast!
Our biggest adventure as a floor was the opportunity we had to move this past week. Yup, we were on one side of the floor for 3 weeks and then we got to move to the other side of the hall. But now, it's a little more permanent and we can actually unpack and decorate and all that jazz.
Classes are pretty relaxed which is nice! I rove on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays so my schedule is set. I get to play in the orchestra for the spring opera, Hansel and Gretel. It has always been a dream of mine to play in the pit for a show so I am pumped!
Most of my friends stayed for spring so it has been a blast to have so many people to hang out with! The weather has been kinda crazy. It's usually sunny and warm in the morning and then there will be a huge thunderstorm with pouring down rain in the afternoon and then sometimes it will keep raining throughout the night and sometimes it just clears right up! It's so bizarre. I've been drenched on more than one occasion for my underestimation of the weather haha!
Social life has included some really good movies, a lot of fun games, late night talks, going to get food, attending the temple and institute, doing homework, watching NBA games, lots of laughing, and just having a grand time. I seriously have the greatest friends in the whole wide world!
Things are already starting to wrap up! One of my classes gets done next in a week and a half, my choir concert and the opera are in 3 weeks, we'll do checkouts before we know it. EFY and sports camps have started to arrive. Summer is upon us!
