.: ring the bell...

life is good. let's be honest...i really don't have anything to complain about. and who would have thought i'd love living in provo as much as i do {yes...provo and love came out of my mouth in the same sentence}. i work, i have lots of friends, a crazy budding social life haha, a wonderful ward. yea for life.

guess who's taking the gre. that's right...this girl. i have officially taken the first step towards the rest of my life {figuratively speaking}. d-day is oct 24 at 9am. i'm excited/scared/nervous/thrilled/freaking out all at the same time. it's about time i do this

though.

the other night me and roomie stayed up way too late and i was talking about travel and art and architecture and all the things i love/miss about it and realized man...i LOVE what i studied in

college and getting my masters is something that i really want to do. i know that i would always regret it if i didn't do it. so here i go.

what's new in my life you ask? well besides the gre not a ton. i've been applying to tons of jobs, i finished at the museum, it's quite literally impossible for me to be to bed before 1am, i got a calling in my ward.

you're looking at the council chair for temple and family history. i feel like this is a wonderful thing-naturally-and perfect for me right now. i'm super excited for it. although i feel completely inadequate, and it's going to be hard being in charge of 15 other people, i know it will help me to grow so much and make me appreciate the temple so much more.

last wednesday night i got to drive up to sundance with friends to go on the moonlight ride. so run and beautiful! i had never been up to sundance. but you go and ride the ski lift up and back down the mountain during the full moon.

so we loaded into the car in our sweatshirts and blankets and headed up. below are some pictures for your viewing pleasure...enjoy:
