Back to Utah! As much as I love Colorado, it just seems wrong to call it "home" these days. The entire time I am there all I want to do is get back to my day to day life. Not that the current state of affairs is my day to day life.
I came back to Utah with a house guest. Ashley came out to visit some friends and is crashing at my place. Which is great, it's nice to have company since I don't have roommates. But you know that old saying about company and old fish? After a while it starts to stink?
Ashley doesn't stink and she's way fun. But I am anxious to get back into the swing of normal life and get myself ready to go back to my last semester of school {fingers crossed!}

Driving Home
The Wyoming weather gods have forgiven me! Or something like that. For the first time ever I drove home and wasn't caught in a snow storm or torrential down pour or 400mph winds. There was no traffic and no freak shutting down of the highway. Given, I left Salt Lake at 3:30 in the morning, and that may have contributed a little bit.
But that's beside the point. The point is, whoever is in charge of making driving from Salt Lake to Denver the suckiest thing ever has forgiven me.

Quick Updates
I know, I know, I've been really bad at blogging lately. I mean really, really bad. I go an overhaul my entire blog, change the URL, rant and rave about how I'm mixing things up. Then I fall off the blogging planet... Sorry. I'm a hypocrite. I'll own that.
Quick update: I'm two weeks {Actually, like 4 days} from the end of my second semester! And as much as I can say this semester has been low key and super easy and all that, I'm super stressed out about the next couple weeks. And it's making me a super unpleasant person, I am sure. Being so close to the end means if all goes according to plan I only have one semester left {then I have to go join the real world, and that's scary}
Aside from school I've been job hunting like a maniac. And am super over it. Job hunting seriously sucks. I don't know how people can do this for extended periods of time and still function as human beings. Cause being at it for just the last few months makes me want to stick a pen in my eye and claim disability {I probably shouldn't publish that though, if I ever do do it the word premeditated is going to get thrown around} But in all seriousness, I feel like I was never prepared for this part of my life. I feel like growing up, elementary school prepares you for middle school, prepares you for high school, prepares you for college, prepares you for what exactly? I'm learning all these things about design and I can totally knock out designs and such, but how exactly do I find a job doing that? I don't know. Find a job doing anything? I don't know that either.
And then in all my free time {funny joke!} I've been trying to stay involved at church and with friends. I feel like I slacked majorly in those categories last semester what with all the craziness in the moving, adjusting, course overload and shenanigans that went on.
I've been toying with the idea of starting a design blog since I started school. And lately I've really been playing with it, but haven't really known what direction I want to take it in or how I want to go about doing it. Maybe it will happen, maybe it won't. But I'll keep everyone in on that as it develops....
