This week, I had some friends visit from Mesa. They’d come up to Utah to visit family for their Spring Break, but came up to Provo for a day to see some friends from high school that are now at BYU, so when they came to see me, I realized some funny things that set BYU apart from other colleges:
1. It seems completely normal to spend your Book of Mormon class watching the BYU game and relating events of the game to the experiences of the Brother of Jared
2. You have nicknames for buildings, like the SWKT, MARB, WILK, etc. instead of just calling them by their names…
3. You can’t go one day without running into someone from Mountain View (my high school in Mesa)
4. You’ve become desensitized to couples trading off their kids while one parent goes to class
5. When someone shows you pictures from their weekend, you find yourself scrolling through 84 pictures
6. You see people laying out in swimsuits when it’s 50 degrees outside
7. You find out your school is going to start a class about how Twilight became so popular even though it isn’t a great piece of literature
*All based on true experiences…

How do you pronounce SWKT? You may hear a NASTY rumor that I was in SLC this weekend and COULD NOT make it to Provo. Sad sad sad but true. So sad. I wanted you to see Jenna but I didn't have a car. So sad.
my heart hurts at that news. I would've walked there... :( but that's okay...only one more month
I can't believe you are home in one month!?!?! Crazy beans. I can't believe the Twilight class, and the sunbathing at 50 degrees cracked me up. OH I miss you. And F.Y.I. it's pronounced SWICKET RaeAnn.
