the birth of my blog.

Well, I absolutely NEVER thought I'd ever be a blogger. Maybe I'm still not, we'll see. I figure I'll start this whole business off with a little blip about my life as of late. Strap in and prepare to be blown away.

Names Kay. I woke up late this morning, got ready, sang a good morning song to Sharla, grabbed a blueberry Activia yogurt, and was out the door. Now, the hike to the frickin Ricks Building. Ask me how smart it was to leave my warm apartment in a crocheted t shirt to brave the Rexburg weather in October.....not smart at ALL. Oh, also, I'm already sick. Yeehaw.

So I'm a Kayleensickle who is sucking down a yogurt, no spoon, mind you, doing the old lady fast walk. You all know what I'm talking about. My backpack is in the PERFECT position to slowly hike up the back of my shirt with every step I take. I'm positive you can see my underoos and love handles, but do I fix it? Not a chance. I have 7 minutes to hike to the Everest of campus...with blueberry yogurt on my face, nothing to shield me from the 35 degree weather (oh, and it's windy), pink undies showing, love handles blaring, and sportin the old lady fast walk. 

Freshman Freakshow? You betcha.

AND I LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT! 

Really. I'm where I know I need to be, doing what I know the Lord wants me to do, meeting the most amazing people, having the best experiences, and being blessed in more ways than I know how to handle.

I can truly say that for the first time in my ENTIRE life, I am experiencing true happiness. I've done nothing to deserve how amazing my life has become, but I'm sure thankful for it. College has been the best thing to ever happen to me. I'm just feeling so thankful as I sit here, freezing in the Ricks, breathing through my mouth, probably creeping everyone out.

I was placed in the BEST situation I could have possibly been placed in. I have the most amazing roommates who have become my best friends. For the first time in my life, I have a solid group of truly amazing friends who help, uplift, and motivate me on so many levels. I have gained a new appreciation for my family. Don't even get me started on them, it'll just add to the freakshow cause I'll ball my eyes out. And I don't think the geeky kid next to me wants me wiping my sick, nasty runny nose all over his Quantum Mechanics lookin homework. In short, don't deserve them, but miss them so much and love them like CRAZY. 

There's WAY too much to write about, but for my first post, I think I've done pretty good. College thus far gets a big fat A+.
