First week of college!

























Well I did it guys! I survived my first week as a college student! So far my History of Education class is my favorite and I love all my teachers they are all great! Even though my mornings start out with -15 degree weather this place is beautiful and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity I have been given to attend school here. Back to the cold weather. Being from the valley of Oregon I am not built for this kind of weather! (picture of me with hand warmers on my face) However this kind of cold is different than the Oregon rain cold. I'm surprised by how warm I have actually been. This has also been the most I have ever walked in 1 week in my whole life. I currently average about 5-6 miles a day except for the almost 27,000 steps day! It  has been crazy how much I have learned already about myself and others. I am so excited for this new adventure. It is still very weird being away from home but I am so happy and thankful for this amazing opportunity. If some kind of change is happening to you, take advantage of it! It will be so rewarding if you face it head on and then enjoy the ride! Catch ya next week for another dose of Vitamin "C"!

When life gives you (sour) lemons...

This week started out very difficult. My dad was having health problems, my work days felt longer than ever before and on top of that I locked my keys in my car....and it was only Tuesday! Since then I have been determined to turn it all around. Yesterday morning I got up and I said I am going to have a great day. I really did. This week I really learned what Hannah Montana meant when she said "Life's what you make it, so let's make it rock" The last few days held little victories for myself and others who I surrounded me. I got most of my college stuff figured out, all of my housing plans have been finalized and one of my students finally got off the bus by herself today! The sweet moments in my life have balanced out the sour ones and have put a better taste in my mouth as the week comes to a close. Make sure you always have sugar and water on hand because when life gives you some of it's sour lemons, through time, patience and a little hard work, your lemona...
