I'm Bleedin' Blue at BYU

Oh BYU.  It is oh-so-wonderful. And getting better all the time. Life at this university definitely took an upswing my second semester when my sister decided to join me here in cougar territory. My first semester here I was homesick, wished I was still a kid, and was anxiously counting down the days until I could go back home. What a weirdo I was! I heard my sista wanted to transfer to BYU and at first I was not thrilled... We hadn't exactly gotten along as kids and I didn't know how I felt about losing my originality in the family from choosing to attend BYU. But what was I gonna do?
She came... and it was the best thing ever!!!! We are best friends. I guess it just takes a little growing up to realize what happiness really is. I stopped counting down the days and now I don't want them to end. Every week is the new best week, every day the new best day. My sister and I do everything together, and rarely are we seen without the other.  We are neighbors now, and we are crazy, and we love it. And we love BYU. I couldn't be more glad/thankful that my sister got the prompting to come down and join me in school.
Sometimes the things we are most apprehensive about turn out to be the greatest things for us. We help each other through the tough things, celebrate the good things, and we keep laughing all the way. Because of my sister, I learned how to love life in the moment, and the moment for me right now is college. Yay BYU!

  1. I really like the title of your post. It was interesting and I wanted to read more. I like the fact that you added pictures to help show your story. I also liked the design of your blog. The only thing that I would suggest is potentially using a different color for the font. Black gets a little dull and I think it would add just a little more to your blog.
