Mr Byalystock-I"M BACK! -Matthew Broderick in The Producers

That's right. I'm home in Thatcher. Yay! It was time to come back, and so I did(: I think that my break was starting to get a little long! And its wierd transitioning from home to independence and back again, and then back again. Sorry, that was confusing(:
Well, I returned Saturday noon-ish and right at the same time, my new roommate, Whitney, was moving in. So it was fun to meet her! She is a pretty cool girl! The twins also came home that afternoon and we all just kinda got settled in. Emily, one of my best friends from Show Low, also moved in this weekend to an apartment just 2 buildings over from mine so I am THRILLED to have her here! Should be a fun semester filled with more craziness!
This morning, I went and talked with my counselor about my math class that I unfortunantly got a [beautiful] D in this past semester. Yeah, I kinda screwed things up there. Well anyway-he granted me permission to move forward to the next level due to the fact that I have test anxiety. I got a lot to work to do this semester! However, I did decide to drop my anthropology class so that I will only have 14 credits, instead of 17. I'd like to try to keep my stress level down...yeah right. But less classes will probably boost my GPA up. Arrrgh! The fun of college. I am having a good attitude though and am determined to do well this semester. I am highly considering auditioning for a play as well. The big musical they are doing this semester is "Fiddler on the Roof". I'm not sure if I will do that one, because there are also other small productions that the Fine Arts department does so I will see whats happening and go from there! I really miss acting and performing as I did in high school so I really would like to keep it all up as long as I can! I'm sure I will stay busy as always, but its what I do!
There are lots of new people moving in this semester so I hope to meet lots of them and make new friends as well.
Also, as a "welcome back" from my [lovely] bishopric(:. I'm speaking in church this coming Sunday. My topic will be Fellowshiping. A very different topic for me, but I got it mostly written last night so I just gotta time it and stuff. I really do enjoy speaking and teaching so I think it will go well. (and mind you-I don't normally admit that!)
School starts up Wednesday and I'm actually looking forward to new classes, new adventures, and in a way, a new me. It's really amazing how much you can change, and even change your outlook on things, in just a few months. Have a great week everyone!

Happy New Year, Rachelle, and "Welcome Home!" Kind of... It was a good idea to have 14 credits. You'll do great! Good luck with classes Wednesday, and this whole semester.
