And on comes the winter...

Well, fall semester has come and gone, the leaves have all fallen and the snow has come down... (this sounds like a book or something) Anyways, I just got through the first day of all of my classes and for the most part I think I am going to have a great winter semester. There is one class that scares me and its western political heritage... it sounds interesting but after the first day I must admit I am a little scared. Its gonna be a lot of work. Last semester I took 13 credits and got a 3.55 GPA, which actually makes me mad because I got a 89% in my morals class... SO close! but I also got a B in my calculus class which makes me happy, so I guess it evens out.
After Christmas break I came back to BYU and oh my it was cold... like really cold. Good thing I have sweet boots, good sweaters, a scarf, benie and awesome ear muffs/headphones to keep me warm. I went to my first class on Monday without any ear protection and holy smokes, I thought my ears would break off they were so cold. It was mostly so cold because the temperature was below freezing and there was a good strong wind (the kind that blows snow into your eyes so hard it hurts) but today its much better.
So at the start of the semester EVERYONE goes food shopping and book shopping. Well blasted, everyone means me too and also super long lines with little selection. At the creamery (because that is the closest place to walk to and no one wants to drive in the snow) I went to get eggs and there was only one carton left... and I couldnt find any top rommin. So I had to stand in line forever just for a gallon of milk and eggs. Kinda depressing. But other than that life is great.
Anyways, Thats me at school...

Hey there James! Your stories are always so entertaining. I could actually picture your ears red and frosty with frostbite. Be sure to keep warm... maybe they'll send you someplace warm on your mission so you won't have another cold experience. OR you will get sent someplace cold and you'll be all prepared for it. Well, anyway... I should feel inspired and update my own blog... Christmas AND new year's has come and gone with no update. ACK!
