I'm a little obsessed.

This summer I went to 4 concerts :) how lucky am I? And as a result, I am a little obsessed...
Owl City during Finals Week 
He is We in a scary part of Salt Lake
Justin Bieber with my little sisters
John Mayer and Owl City in August- two for the price of one :)

Growing up I never understood how it would be any fun to pay more money to see someone in person when you could just buy their CD and listen to it whenever you wanted! That's my stingy side showing :) But experiencing concerts for myself has truly opened my eyes. There is just something incredible about being in a huge crowd waiting to hear a voice that is on your ipod, a song that brings back great memories, and lyrics that have made you smile, cry and do everything in between. 

I'm obsessed. And no, I do not enjoy paying so much money to go see some of my favorite singers in person, but sometimes I just can't help myself. 

It's been about two months since my last concert... And I'm thinking I'm overdue for another one :)

I could explode

with happiness :) life is so good. It's been so long since I've posted because I'm back down at BYU for my junior year! SO crazy. New apartment. New roommates. New ward. New friends. New classes. Good stuff.
I am SO busy, and I couldn't be happier. I love having things to do, people to meet, places to go. I'll be honest, summer got very lonely in Kaysville, so I'm loving everything I'm doing here at school :)

It would take too long to give you details about everything that I've done here so far, so pictures will have to do :)

I missed my roommate.
