College! Love, Jamie

Family! I haven't blogged in a while (...no one has...) and I have a few minutes (waiting for my laundry to dry) so here's an update!!
Cedar City is beautiful in the fall! It's actually quite gorgeous year round, but I especially love the colors. The SUU campus is perfect. There are lots of crunchy leaves to step on (my favorite thing in the world!). Classes are going well! I'm taking a lot of required, 1 credit classes this semester, and they're really quite simple. I had a final last week (yeah...not a midterm. A final.) and that went well. One class down, 5 more to go! I'm taking a psychology class and I absolutely LOVE it! It is SO interesting to me! My professor is really neat, I enjoy his lectures. I'm also taking a social dance class, which is a blast. There are about 60 girls and 20 guys in the class, so it's interesting. Oh! I think I've decided on a major, finally! I want to major in English, Creative Writing emphasis. Perhaps minor in History. :) I haven't even told my parents this yet. Haha.
My roommates are AWESOME! You know how there's always at least one roommate who is difficult to get along with? Yeah. Not true. I have 5 roommates and ALL of my roommates are easy to get along with. There's Jenni, who has dredlocks and travels the world. Shirsten, who is super creative and has gorgeous long hair. Kenzie, the beautiful ballerina. Annie, who has an amazing singing voice and is the "mom" of our dorm (she's a sophomore, the rest of us are freshmen). And then my actual ROOM roommate is Macall, and I've known her for years. We went to highschool together! We're all great friends. We stay up late watching movies and playing card games. We take turns making Sunday dinner and eat together. We have dance parties in the kitchen. We're so much alike! :) I love them! I lucked out.
SUU is seriously male deprived. There are 15 guys in my ward, and about 70 girls. And that is not an exaggeration. My home teacher has a huge crush on me and it's kind of annoying! Kind of creepy too...
I have a bunch of guy friends who live in a house off campus and I go over there just about every night for scripture study. It's... interesting. BAHAHAHAHA! We have some good times. The other night it was POURING rain, so we ran barefoot around campus and went insane! It was a blast!! We had a Star Wars-athon last Monday...we watched all 6 movies in one day. Gag. I could feel my brain cells wasting away! Eh. It was fun, nonetheless.
I'm half way done with my first semester of college! I can't believe it! Time is flying. Taylor comes home in 39 days!! He's coming to SUU next semester, it'll be fun to have him around. I'll have to show him the ropes, help him make the change back to the real world (if you can call college the "real world" hahaha.)
Peace out family!
