I MADE IT!!!

So the other day I walked home from school, it was slightly chilly (meaning about 20 degrees) and I was pretty tired. I walked into my apartment, and there, sitting on my table was a letter. Addressed to me. Which is kind of cool because letters are just super fun to get and I love them. So I picked it up and noticed it was from BYU's Department of Education and it was thick. I looked at my roommates who I'm sure were just waiting for me to freak out and they all smiled and told me to open it. And I did. I MADE IT IN!!! I'm officailly part of the Elementary Education Program at BYU and I start my classes in the Fall! I'm so so excited :) It's starting to feel so real. I was talking to a girl at my work who is in the program right now and she was telling me about the classes I would be taking this Fall and it sounds absolutely wonderful! I am so excited to be a teacher in a few years and cannot even wait to get started!!!

The Latest....

Well, I decided I'm slacking again...sorry. This is the latest in the life of Alissa :)

The other week President Monson came to BYU for a fireside and my roommates and some good friends all got in line at the Marriott Center and listened to his talk. It was amazing. I love these kind of experiences I get to have going to BYU.

New update. I got glasses! Crazy. I know. I feel like a nerd somedays. Other days I feel very studious and proud of them :) I'm still getting used to my eyelashes hitting them every five seconds and I do everything in my power to make sure that when I have to push them back up my nose when they slide to not look like steve erkel. haha
And this is a new update.. I'm dating a nice boy named Austin. Andrew and Kelli set us up on a blind date and it has been going well :) ps. This picture is from when he made me dinner the other night - super sweet and it was waay good...- so we're both sitting at the table and I'm leaned over so its kind of a weird angle. but I like it anyways :)

Well, that's all for now. In the next few weeks I'll find out if I made it into the teaching program at BYU so I'm sure I'll update then too :) love you all!
