BIG NEWS FOR SNOW COLLEGE!


A rumor has been going around saying that Snow College is going to be building a new library. I heard that rumor last year and this year i hear more buzzing about it. Well the fact is it's true. The new library is going to have four floors, be in a different location on campus(basically across a parking lot distance) and be better organized all around. i don't find a problem with the library that is already existing. It has three floors and doesn't need to be torn down. Paul Ordyna studied in this library to pass all his classes and i plan on doing the same! I'm not even going to be here when the new library is done so why am i complaining? Well i think we could of used that money to build the library to keep employment here at the school. Snow College already had to make a %5 teacher cut and thanks to the economy we had to make another %15 teacher cut(don't quote me on those Statistics, but i know it was a lot). I don't feel like we need a new library. I don't like change in small town, i think it loses it's value as a small town look!

First Week back to school





Since i missed the first week of school because of my Mississippi trip i had some catching up to do. Oh boy what a week i had, the work wasn't that bad; once i turned in my first assignments I felt pretty good. It was the events that i wasn't too fond of. The picture above is an object you might use daily or you should at least recognize it, yes it's a mechanical pencil. A pencil that is more preferred to use by Students because of it's wonderful grip at the point and the fine print it gives when you write. Well I am one of those students! Last week I was using a mechanical pencil to do homework. I used the lead stick to the point where i had to take it out...i did, but i threw that extra lead on the floor(like i always do). Later that night i went swimming with my roommates and when i got back i went to check my phone to see if someone called me. My room was dark, but i knew exactly where my phone was. i went straight to my bed when all of a sudden i feel something stab me in the foot! I hoped out of my room to the light and saw that inch lead stick IN MY FOOT!!! luckily i don't get sick over those things like my mom does, i just calmly pulled it out and couldn't believe how far it went in my foot. My foot then started bleeding and was a little tender the next day...don't worry mom and dad i don't have lead poisoning i just had a small black hole in my foot for a couple of days!

New Years Eve


I saw this guy at the dance and i knew him and his friends looked REALLY familiar. We made eye contact and i could tell he knew me from somewhere. I walked up to him and said "You look familiar, did you go to Timpview?" he smiled and said "Yes" HOLY COW did i call it! haha
I then asked him if he knew Tyler Garlock and he confirmed and i told him Tyler was my brother! What a small world we live in!
