My favorite thing about Western

I need to be honest... I don't believe I would have been able to make it through this entire school year without the people in my life. Whether it has been family, friends, or friends that became family. I've said goodbye to people that have been huge influence in my life but I have also said hello to some wonderful beginnings. I have been reminded time and time again, that everything happens for a reason. This year has been extremely busy but also very rewarding. Fall 2010 was the first annual haunted house that was hosted in Aspen Mountain Hall organized by Aspen Mountain Hall's hall director Kelsie Keller. One of the best things that I have EVER been involved in. :) Our RA RA'ppin trip in Laramie. RA training. The Halloween dance, all of the RA programs. All of the plays and musicals. All of the sports games. All of the ASG events and RHA events. VERY FUN YEAR.

This is my last semester as a RA here at Western and it is a chapter of my life that is a little hard to say goodbye to. I have come to know so many wonderful people either because they were residents, were my fellow RA's, or faculty of WWCC. I would greatly advise any one coming to this school to become as INVOLVED as possible. You don't have to be in clubs or sports or teams. Just walk out of your dorm and say hello to people. You'll learn that not every one will become your best friend but you will meet some incredible people that may give you a whole new outlook on an idea or belief. I believe I'll be back here for one more semester this fall and am looking forward to it. Fall semester is the beginning. There are wonderful things to do and become involved in. So if you are here at Western already, or are looking at applying here, PLEASE get to know the people you'll be going to school with. It will open an entirely new door in your life that you may never have thought possible. Sorry for the pep talk. I got a little sentimental. Please forgive me. :)

Bonfires :)

So since it's been nicer outside (and not AS cold as it was a few months ago) we have been doing some adventuring. We went out by Little Fire Hole and decided to build a bonfire. GREAT night. Briquel, Kylee (another RA), Kory, Trever, Tyler, Kelly, and myself built it. Okay... so the boys obtained the crates, loaded them in the truck, found the perfect fire spot, unloaded them, split them up, lit them, and then kept the fire going all night... but still. We girls were there as the spirit lifters. :) We did our part. This semester has been one of my best so far. I have enjoyed the random rides up White Mountain, the bonfires, the pictures, the pranks, the meals, the talks, the movies, the McDonald trips. Very fun, indeed.

April Fools Da-- ahem...Month.

So this month of college has been one of the best so far. Pranks galore. I don't think talking about them would give them much justice so let me show you:

^ ^ That's my room... yeah. Pretty dang rad. Props. I came home at three in the morning to... ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. :)

Oh and then we pranked my cousins room. I mean, what else could you possibly do with 5 industrial size bags of shredded paper?
