Do you ever wake up and think, dang where did the time go? How did I get to be this old so fast? Wasn't it just yesterday that...? The sad thing about life is that it never slows down. So today's blog is to celebrate the fact that 10 years ago I was a freshmen at BYU.
10 years ago I met some of my very best friends while living in the luxurious Helaman Halls. To celebrate this important time of my life we decided to get together with my very first roommate Megan Brenner (now Tolman). We went down to the good old Cannon Center to have dinner with our cute husbands. We spent way too much time reminiscing about what life was like 10 years ago. We ate our fill of the all you can eat buffet, we had to get our money's worth. It did not take us long to figure out why all freshmen living in the dorms gain 15 pounds. We never eat that good anymore, except on Sundays when we have dinner at my mom's. :)
We then went over to good old Taylor hall. That's were Megan and I were roommates. Good old 2200 floor is very different now. We were one of the last chosen groups of freshmen to live in this great building before they gutted it and made everything REALLY nice. Though I can't imagine that they have as much fun in their new fancy building as we did in our prehistoric one. They no longer have the ledges outside the windows, people can't crawl out there anymore. Now what are you suppose to do for fun??? I guess you can always slide down the hills on the cafeteria trays, write chalk messages up and down the walk ways, and well...Police Beat is still fun to read.
Anyway, yeah for the last 10 years! I am so grateful that I decided to live in the ghetto dorms and meet Megan, Nikki, Cheri, Sarah, and Janelle. What awesome girls! I'd do it all over in a heartbeat so that I could walk away with friends like them. I must say the six of us have done well over the last 10 years. 6 college graduates, 3 full time missions, 5 temple weddings, and well Nikki's kicking all our trash as far as kids go. Not bad, not bad at all.

10 years ! Oh my we are getting so old! And this week you will be closer than all of us to the big 30. How fun that you and Megs celebrated by doing dinner at the cannon center. I have been a bit nostalgic about the good old days of BYU. I really miss them. We definately need to plan a reunion sometime! And yes I am kicking everyones trash in the kid department but then again I am crazy.
PS. Love you lots!
What a nice post on your blog. It is hard to believe that 10 years has past-and yes, you will be celebrating your 29th birthday on the 17th this month!! (Are you gonig to do a post on that???) Good times we all had. I still think about the good old days a lot. And hey, I am trying to catch up to Nikki. It just takes some time:)
Oh wait, did you not want people to know how old your are going to be?? I am sorry. Hehehehe:)
It's ok to tell my age, no one believes that I'm going to be 29. Most people think I'm 23. So thank you for being a witness that I really am going to be 29.
You're 29? Never would have guessed. Stacy
