The Past Three Months.

I really have no idea where to start. I haven't blogged in forever. Normally, I would have nothing to report-my life is pretty repetitive...school, work, pi phi...end of story. But for some reason these last three months have been dramatic. Dramatic in the sense that my life has done a complete 180. I doubt any truth still holds to my previous posts.

So, where to start?

I guess I'll start at the beginning...the beginning of it all.

I went to Cabo with friends for Spring Break...which feels like FOREVER ago..probably because it was. It was literally the BEST vacation I have ever been on. I am OBSESSED with Cabo. I plan on going back every year until I die...it was THAT fun. I even met Pi Phis from CU!

Vacation ended and sadly, I was back to reality. At this time, so many huge events occurred at once...

I broke up with Scott

I became Chapter President of Pi Beta Phi

I took my finals & passed my classes

I realized what I wanted out of life

I started summer school

I moved out of Pi Phi and into an apartment with Molly

Ok, so I guess a few things did stay the same. I'm still in school, still working, and still obsessed with Pi Phi. But, a lot of major events have occurred.

It's shocking to me how insanely happy I am. I've changed a great deal in these past few months. I feel like a whole different person. I promise to keep you up to date, little blog. Just know that I'm happier now than I have ever been. I can't wait to see what life has in store for me.

Here's a look at what else I've been up to (in no order...)

My boss hooked me up with Jazz tickets. Me & Molly enjoyed seeing the Lakers! We even met up with Ali (Pi Phi Alum).

We played powderpuff for a sisterhood! I was on the winning team...no big deal..

I went to Colorado && saw my BFF Jessica! Had the BEST weekend! I really do love & adore Jessica. She's more a soul mate than a best friend. We are SO alike it's insane. Our lives are parallel. I love having someone like her who seems to ALWAYS be going through the exact same things I am.

AJ got MARRIED!!! I'm so happy for her! She was a GORGEOUS bride <3

I went to Colo and waterskiied....in a wetsuit...in JUNE!

We had Greek Week at the U...and Pi Phi took SECOND! :D

Pi Phi Formal was insane & so much fun!! It was at the Raddison Hotel. I love seeing everyone dressed up. It was such a fun night! Leia did SUCH a good job planning it!

Aj had her bridal shower...where we made her a dress from tissue paper! Impressive..eh?

My besties!!!

Dad came into town for Parent's Weekend at Pi Phi! We played Poker & Blackjack & Roulette. It was so much fun!

Mom came to Pi Phi for Parent's Weekend. We had a delicious brunch!

Dad & me @ Pi Phi. I have the best dad in the whole world!

I met a boy named James...&& we went to some Jazz games! (thanks again to the boss!!)

My life, in short, has taken quite the turn. I'm excited to see what life brings next. Although, with all the good news and wonderful things that have happened, something bad is bound to happen. Let's just hope it's not for a long, long time!

My crazy life.

I almost forgot you existed little blogspot. Life has been so crazy lately, I haven't had time to breathe-let alone blog! I didn't think my life could get any crazier. Boy, was I was wrong!

School is more demanding then ever right now, it's hard to believe it's going to get worse. The business school is much harder then I imagined. When you enter the business school at the University of Utah, you don't just learn about your field of interest (in my case accounting and marketing), but you learn about all aspects of business. I'm taking management, IT, accounting, etc. My degree doesn't just cover accounting and marketing-it covers everything involved in the business world. I'm not sure why I have to take IT classes or entrepreneur classes. I don't really care about RAM, cashe, or database design. I didn't know fully what I was getting into. A business major is tough.

I do love my accounting class. The rules and organization are interesting to me. The concepts are hard and I have to study a lot, but I feel like I picked the right major.

Work is good, but crazy. Not only do I do the bookkeeping, QuickBooks, and pay bills for the company, but I also do ordering for the lab, write press releases, and schedule our consultant's trips. This job has enabled me to grow so much in business already. I actually learned how to set up an Ethernet system and how to reconcile bank statements. This job is a little like the business school. I do the IT stuff, the marketing, and the accounting. I get a little bit of each aspect of business everyday I come into the office. I can't believe how lucky I've been.

Recently, I became Vice President of Finance in Pi Phi, which in reality is treasurer. This job is another that surprised me. I wanted to be VPF so that I would be free of the planning, of getting people to realize the importance of attendance, and so I would have less responsibility. Again, I was wrong on that part. VPF is a constant job. Unlike the other positions I have had, I constantly have things to do as VPF. I pay the bills, track the budget, ensure girl's are paying on time, and do reimbursements. On the bright side, this position is great experience for my major and I am understanding finances much more. Plus, it will be great for my resume. I can't imagine not being on exec in Pi Phi. I have such a love for the organization. Plus, this position has given me the ability to understand how Pi Phi works on the business side, which is extremely interesting!

My days are packed full. I go to morning classes, work, then night classes. I hardly have time for anything. Then again, I have always been one who likes a busy life. I never thought life could get too busy for me and as of now, I don't think it is. But add one more thing on my plate and I will be getting NO sleep!

On a positive note- my New Year's Resolutions are going great! I'm working out at least 3x a week I've even lost 7 pounds!!, I'm studying more, and I'm hanging out with the girls more (with the little time that I have!)

Winding down.

So, initiation is officially over, for the most part. We only have two more girls to initiate in Pi Phi-but for the most part, my job as Vice President Fraternity Development, is done. WOW! I had NO IDEA how much time, effort, and work this position would take. I am so happy I decided to slate. Becoming VPFD has probably been one of the highlights of my freshman year. I have learned SO much about Pi Phi. I have learned the heritage, the history, and the importance of everything we do. It has made me grow in so many ways. It has reached parts of my soul that I never thought would be touched-it made me apprechaite being a woman. It made me love-even more-the bonds of sisterhood. I wish I could explain in full detail what Pi Beta Phi has come to mean to me, but words could never express it.

It's just a RELIEF initiation is over!!!!

After the month of constant Pi Phi planning, I realize how much I have let my school work slip. I now realize that there are about 2 and a half weeks left of school. And I have a couple of things to worry about:

*20 page paper due in Econ by the 29th of April
*Econ test
*Anthropology Final
*Final acting performance
*Philosophy final

So, I guess I'm just here to write a quick post explaining my recent-and future-absence.

I have to say, life without blogging is no way to live! Everyday I wish I had more time to blog and write down my feelings, but at this point in my life, there is just NO WAY.

I just pray these next 2 and a half weeks fly by. I just hope I can stay focused and motivated on my school work

Wish me luck!
