Since I have been back on US soil
It has been a crazy few last weeks.
I will do my best to just highlight and not drone on and on. i dont even have time for that!
see right now i want to take a nap since i might have strep throat thanks to my amazing Sean but I have so many little things i need to get done and I wont be able to fall asleep if i am worried about them so here it goes....
When i got back into US boundaries i just about cried. Looking out of the plane and seeing my homeland. (i give tons of props to my mommy who left hers to have a family) Now after I landed in Chicago and waited in the HUGE lines to get through customs and the line for my baggage that was sliced open on the side with the handles torn off and had this irritable lady make me make my carry on fit smoothly into the basket I was not missing it so much.
but it was great to be back and talk to my dad all the way to my grandmas house.
I had one day and then after that I was off with Chelsea and Jill to Rexburg for an amazing weekend with old friends and the campus i love. We went to three wedding receptions on the way home and then stayed the night at my uncles house in Salt Lake. The next morning we dropped off Chelsea at the airport and then me in Lindon to go to Alyssas mission farewell. it was such a good meeting and i was crying.
After we went to her house for a little "open house" where i met tons of her family and friends. I hung out with Diana basically the whole time which of course was tons of fun. I also met Sean there. Now this boy is Alyssas moms cousin but he is 22 so our age. i talked to him quite a bit and he got my number. Alyssa and Diana were super excited that Sean and I hit it off.
My sisters got in to Provo in the next couple of days with my mom. So good to see everyone after so long!
I went to a game night at Seans house with A and D which was so much fun! We played a bunch of games including Norwegian Twister which got us comfortable really fast. My dad rented a super nice room at this Swedish resort in Heber for a couple nights. Before we went up that morning Sean and I went on a date to the BYU art museum which i loved because i love the art and i get to know him a lot more. The resort was gerat and we got some good family time in. They had an indoor pool and hot tub with a waterfall which was super nice. IT was a ligit place.
Christmas was good. My sisters got trapped in the room after church because for some reason the the door knob broke and would not let them out. it was good times and eventually they were freed.
The next day Sean and I had a date. we found out we both had awesome sweaters so he planned to do a photo shoot in our awesome sweaters. We got some props (i got some from Omi) and we went to a duck pond and had elina be our photographer. It was great fun but it looks like engagement pictures which makes it even funnier. they really did turn out great.
Then Elina went shopping with EMi and Sean and I got Panda express and watched Kung Fu Panda! I told him i always wanted to do that so we did it! i was happy.
that whole week we hung out every day pretty much all day.
he spent a lot of time with my family lol we even went to the Springville art museum with them which was fun. Anyways i will wrap that week up. great week with my family and Sean
We spent a night in a lodge where my dad invited a bunch of family and i took sean. it was in aspen grove and there was only a bit of snow. we had fun going on a walk and then playing games with everyone. Skipbo with Omi was the highlight really. It was also super fun watching Princess Bride with my family. We also found a little nook and Elina Sean and I read Hunger games there.
I made a Turkish Dinner for everyone one night which i was stressed and worried about since it did not taste like i wanted it to taste (my first time making Turkish food so of course it didnt taste the same) but everyone liked it.
I spent new years eve with Sean and that was so much fun. all his nieces were there and they loved me! i got to play with kids agaiN! little lucy who normally does not like people kept coming up to me and cuddling with me. Sean was jealous :)
I had to say goodbye to Alyssa before i left to school which was super sad. I hate goodbyes. I had to say goodbye to my family too. :(
Now i am at school and so far its pretty good. Classes are a lot of work/readings but are super interesting for the most part. I even have two classes in a row with Tyler M!!! Love that kid! we are going to have a blast making up a goofy religion for our sociology of religion class.
My apartment is crappy but the more i get to know my roommates the more i like them. I was freaking out at frist because my room roommate put a 12in kitchen knife in her top drawer. it was funny because she thought it would freak me out being on the desk after she was using it as scissors and put it in the drawer to not freak me out but that was so much worse! haha we had a good laugh about that.
I also got to see Jeff fafa this week who is back from his mission!! :) cool kid jeff. he is blind so they wouldnt let him go on a mission at first but then they figured out a way and he went to SLC.
I also got to hang out a couple times with Tanae and her hubby! man i missed her! we had a blast getting horchata, visiting jeff, and going to DI.
Tyler was going to Utah this weekend so i went down with him. It was a great weekend with Sean and staying with Chelsea! We also made pizzas and tyler came. we jsut had so much fun together. but be warned the movie "something borrowed" is a terrible movie. I kept watching because it had to get better at some point but it didnt and the ending was the worst!
anyways great time. I got to see Sean teach his mission prep class which was really good. great weekend. only he found out yesterday that he has strep throat from his dad and i have been with him all weekend....i am going to be drinking a lot of juice and taking my vitamins!
ok iwill post some pics too! take care!!!

Boxes of joy
ok cool story now. this shows God really does love me :) not like i didnt know before but really its awesome. so Hailee (my new roommate) got home yesterday and said she had some good news for me. Turns out that there was a girl in her class with the last name Bushman. Another girl came up to her and asked if she had a sister named Ana Bushman. The girl said she did but she graduated from BYUI 7 years ago. Hailee hears this and she jumps in that she has a roommate named Ana Bushman. Well the girl lives in Brooklyn 306 and said that Ana BUshman has a couple boxes that have been there for about a year! So i went over last night and they were my old boxes that for some reason no one threw away!!! they were full of my scriptures, movies, all my scrapbooking stuff,and decorations!!!!!!! i was so happy! i thought it was all in Utah in storage but turns out i left it there. Chelsea was supposed to tell me i guess but she never did but i was amazed that even through the summer break they didnt throw it away!!!! Brooklyn usually throws stuff away too so it is such a miracle!!!!!! I am so blessed i really am. That saved me so much grief especially after I lost a bunch of stuff including most of my jewelry in Turkey.
What a great thing. I made sure to say many thanks in my Prayers last night.
SO much to say and no time!
-School Started
-I am dating the most amazing guy!
-Going down to provo today
-two classes right after another with Tyler M
-New roommates
-Too much stuff
-Love Tanae!
:)
thats all for now
take care!
