So, Me and JT both just finished are freshman year of college @ BYU-idaho.
For the other that are in college, what did you learn About yourselves, society, educationally ect.
I made an entire scrapbook page on this...so I'm just gonna type it up below.
Top 10 things I learned in college and living away from home (In No order.)
1. I love my parents. They are my best friends. I can depend on them.
2. How to cook green bean caserole, lemon chicken, meatloaf.
3. The first day of class sets the scene for the rest of the semester. Pick your seats wisely.
4. Best friends change&betray.
5. Don't homeschool my kids. Or move to Utah!
6. teachers shouldn't compliment students (A theory in Education classes).
7. How easy it is to fall away from the church-even at BYU-I!
8. Don't take an AM class with roommates. ( If your roommates too tired..you'll wanna stay in bed!!)
9. Who my true friends from High School are!
10. Being friends with dependable people can change everything!
Also.......
I'm more capable then I thought.
You don't have to be smart to go to college. Pleanty of idiots out there.
I don't like sharing a bathroom.
A good bishop can do more for your mental health then a 100 bucks an hour therapist.
Don't have sex. Or do drugs.
Music is God-given.
Bells are beautiful.
I have seasonal depression disorder.
People (at least in Rexburg) are NICE.
Make friends with people who have cars.
Never be 'poor' (And help those that are).
Get a hobby. Way too much free time.
Be friends with your proffesors. They care.
And, a bit of a story:
My first semester at BYU-Idaho (Sept-Dec) was good. I had fun and truly felt like I belonged. My second semester was rough after some tough stuff went on. I pretty much cried through it and focused on my grades. Blocked out the social part of school. But hey. My grades were good...haha.
Anyways. So, me and the church aren't exactly BFF's right now. And I'm not really jiving with the churchs guidlines right now. So, I didn't really think i had the spirit with me....I was just like 'ehhh.'.
So the semester ends and my friend Luna sends me this cute lil message on facebook. About how she was ran out of money at the end of the semester and couldn't afford food ect. And on the days she wasn't planning on eating anything i'd 'just so happen' to invite her to dinner. And she believes the spirit prompted me to ect.
I'm not so sure if it was the spirits promptings..but I just like the idea that it could be
