And now the mayhem begins...

So I've decided to utilize my blog for the purpose of blogging, and not just for the purpose of writing on other people's blogs. I don't know how long this will last; I'm not very consistent when it comes to writing anything (except facebook, I am remarkable at that). But, I am now faced with a summer full of long working hours in the office and need something with which to occupy my time. I have homework I should be doing but that is no fun.

Ah, work. I am a BYU Operator. Basically when you call the operator on a college campus, I am the person you are calling, but only if you're at BYU. We are renowned for knowing everything, we have people call all the time for non-BYU related things, like when Gene Kelly died, or what kind of flowers would be appropriate for furthering a relationship. It is basically the coolest job I could have on campus.

Life here at BYU is pretty good. I just got accepted into the Bachelor of Fine Arts program for my Drawing and Painting future. I have a wonderful boyfriend (Alexander Phillip Shafer Jr.), and great roommates who tolerate my absence and messy room as no one else ever could, and I'm doing pretty well in my classes so soon I will be able to leave Provo town! It is actually not that bad here in Utah, it is just no Colorado.

On other notes, my brother Joel is in Iraq, serving us in the army. His wife Tobi is holding down the fort (ah the majesty of the pun...) in Texas with Alec and Cora. My sister Alicia is in St. George with her husband Dr. Mike, and Trevor and Andrew, providing glasses to the blind people. And my oldest brother Jayson and his son Riley are in Texas as well, filming engineering videos to his hearts delight. His wife Rachelle and daughter Kaiya are in Arizona so they can be near the doctor who will deliver the Quintuplets she is expecting. My family is wonderfully crazy. Jayson and Rachelle each have blogs and a website documenting their quintuplet experience (http://www.wilkinsonquints.org/). Pretty cool.

That is about all the blogging I can take for one evening.
