so i am here in the lib, i have uno mas final and a paper... its been pretty tough but rewarding. we went to park city on sat night, a friend had a party for toys for tots, so we all got to take a break from intense school and dress up... there was a pretty large snowfall coming down and we decided to sleep at the foulgers cabin (which by the way have the most comfortable sheets on the planet, there called comphy sheets.. pure heaven i am not even kidding). anyway we woke up to this...

we had to wait till 4 pm till the plow came up the road so we could get out! it was pretty exciting.

just as an update, i turned 20 years old on wed (im no longer a teen, kinda scary) and was alittle bummed, i had class till 10 pm in salt lake, and a large paper due that night. i had come to terms that i was now old and needed to be responsible and mature and not do anything big to celebrate my birthday. my friend alex bertha's birthday was on thurs and after my salt lake class we were both told we were going to go sledding (which i was so excited about- it defnintly is one of my favorite things to do in the winter) and so we both went to my apt to get ready and there was a surprise party for both of us!! we were both pretty scared out of our minds....im not the smoothest person to scare, alex jumped into the wall and i screamed and was terrified! it was so nice though and made us both feel loved and not as stressed considering both of us have bdays during finals week!
