Priorities!!

Here comes the second post! I feel like it's been an eventful week.  Exciting news to share!!

To begin with, my first semester at BYU is coming to a close! Time flies.  Steven and I have LOVED the excess time that school used to consume!  We're definitely looking forward to the summer break.  We've been celebrating summer by playing guitar hero together.  Something we haven't done in months! :)  We play the career mode.  Our band's name is "Hoo Ahh Yoo" Say it out loud, it's pretty great.... right?  If we aren't playing Guitar Hero, we are packing for our 3 month getaway in Austin, TX. ( back up-Let me rephrase.... I have been packing!) And I guess any extra time has been devoted to studying for finals.  Priorities.

As some of you may have seen on Facebook recently I found out I got into the Special Education Program!!! Yay!! :) So I start in the fall....  for some of you reading that you're saying "wait.... not nursing?"  Let me explain to you how this came to be. (the short version, of course!)  So I've recently been torn between  the two, and have been praying about it a lot and couldn't decide which would be a better choice for me.  I started working towards nursing, but it's been one road block after another.  Seriously, huge pain in the butt.  I told Steven I just want ONE open door, is that too much to ask?  All I had standing between me and applying for the BYU nursing program was one Chemistry class.  Turns out, this chem class has literally kicked my butt.  So out of curiosity I checked into the Special Education Program.  The deadline to apply for Fall was 3 months past.  I emailed the program director, and she promptly replied saying "We would Love to make an exception!"  She then extended the deadline for my application so I had time to apply!  Talk about an open door!  I knew that my prayers had been answered and that God was giving me the Green flag.  Full steam ahead, I will be starting in the fall, and couldn't be happier about that decision!!
