Spring Semester at BYU-Idaho is always the best. It means doing homework outside, going to lakes and caves on the weekends, shooting guns, throwing frisbees, getting caught in huge rainstorms with the wind going 40 miles per hour, and having random adventures with your friends. It is the best time of year to be here, and I wouldn't miss it for the world. This picture here is of my friend Tony- he showed me how to throw knives today.
The great thing about having one semester end and another begin is that I feel like I can start all over again in the spring-time attitude. I feel fortunate that I get a fresh start right when the weather turns nice. There is something about blossoms and flower scent and warm weather that makes you want to change your life. I always feel like spring is the time when I can make changes in my life and drop all the baggage I have been carrying throughout the entire winter. What a relief it is when you can finally leave all the depression of winter behind and reawaken into spring. I love it!
So this is me, shedding off my suffocating coat of winter.
Ah, that's better. It's good to get that off. This upcoming week is finals week (for real this time, it's the big "turn in all your projects and take all your tests right..... NOW) and it will be good to have my spring attitude rather than my depressing winter attitude. I can do this! I will kick trash on my finals. No problem. Just gotta keep telling myself that. I'll see you on the other side of finals! (Then I'll really be in the spring mood.)
