I have a philosphy on life, as I think we all do whether or not we have figured ours out yet, mine is simply this: Enjoy the ride! There will be bumps in the road that will try to get you down, you must not let it! Enjoy the adventures life takes you on and you will be surprised where it takes you. Oh and Scatter Sunshine all along your way :)

college teaches you life lessons

Some life lessons we have learned at college so far include:
 Always take a group picture on your adventures. and go on lots of adventures
 Baby George likes to play with rocks!
 Take some time to enjoy the landscape, Idaho does have some pretty parts.
 Some times you are just gonna fall down. But you pick up the pieces of your shattered life and you move on.
 Baby George will grow up, so play with him now!
 Sometimes people lie and say there will be 3 bridges on your hike when in fact there will be 7. Free game to never let them forget they lied to you.
 Goats are in fact real and not just on TV. (some of us knew that, others... well its never too late! :) )
 When someone asks do you want to go jump of a bridge, say yes! Especially if its still warm outside.
 Sometimes the school doesnt update their website between semesters, so you'll show up to church 3 hours early. Since its a nice day dont go home, go take pictures!
 It gets cold in Rexburg. oh and the snow and I are NOT friends! nor are me and ice.
 When you travel home make sure you like who you travel with. And make it an adventure... "theres no place like home, theres no place like home" *hence the ruby red slippers*
 Even outside of Utah there are fanatics. And yes we do make fun of you when your not looking...
 ALWAYS take pictures. You never know when you are going to win the best picture of the year award from your friends.
 You must sing and dance in the car to help pass the time on long road trips. Journey is a must listen! So keep your phone handy... or a flash light... or a hi-liter... they all become microphones on short notice

Some times you just gotta relax and watch the fireworks, or use a blanket to protect yourself from children with sparklers.
 Do not leave your apartment unattended and unlocked. Someone might steal your furniture... or just put it outside for you to enjoy the fresh air.
 Your roommate will oblige even your strangest requests. "Sierra stretch out my pants!"
 Birthdays are a BIG DEAL! So we celebrate for like a week...

 Even at 11 o'clock at night sometimes you just gotta have some fun and let your roommates alter your hair for you.
 When someone blind folds you and hands you a sign on your birthday... dont trust them!
 But your cousins will help you out when you need a strange request... like hold my foot
 Dance like no one is watching... especially in the vanity area.... and if you know someone IS watching
 Martinelli is a great addition to have when you go to the hot springs
 On Stuarts bday it takes at least 3 boys to kidnap him, after he decides to stop fighting back. Oh and a kidnapping is a must for a birthday extravaganza
 There are in fact rattle snakes in Rexburg Idaho... careful on those hikes!
 When someone asks are you busy? Always say no! Sometimes those random "I need to find this one tree again to finish my project" trips are the most fun
 We dont obey signs....
 Especially no dust signs on a dirt road!
 We have cute butts
 Jaime will in fact fit in her laundry basket!
 We are masters at puttng chains on trires! Thats what happens when it takes you 28 hours to get from Aloha to Rexburg... yeah snow!
 Everyone enjoys a good back rub
Some times you just have to take the cute pictures with your favorte. Especially with trains!
Footie Pajamas are the Best! And very warm in Rexburg!
