Time to de-stress

Sometimes the stress of school gets to be too much and it's just time to take a break. Now as an experienced second semester freshman... I have come up with several ways of de-stressing after a long day/week of classes, homework, and tests. Here are just a few:

• Hot tubbing, at the apartment complex across the street... luckily no one's figured out we don't live there yet
• Phone calls with my mom
• Weekly TV shows on hulu, my personal favorites being slightly stereotypical of a teenage girl haha but thats ok; Glee, Bachelor, Pretty Little Liars, the Office, and Gossip Girl.
• Yoga! I never knew that it could actually be such a good work out, although personally I just love corpse pose ;)
• BYU brownies, need I say more
• 30 minute naps can be the best thing ever
• Making a dinner that involves more than the microwave
• Card games, my new favorite being "Hand and Foot"
• Dollar movie theater down the road
• Skyping Amy :)
• Decorating the apartment, it's a little obvious that we're Jimmer fans
• Going on runs by the temple
• Car trips home or to Utah State
• $5 Blackjack pizza deals
• Visiting my Grandparents in Spanish Fork
• Hanging out in Scott's slightly getto apartment
• Spontaneous dance parties
• Baseball throwing lessons from Brock
• Driving around Provo with the windows down playing gangster music
• Walmart runs for snacks and hitting up Redbox
• Collapsing on a couch in the Wilk with a Jamba in hand
• Making crazy pictures and poems out of a romantic word magnet set my roommate Alysa found somewhere (one of the few I captured a picture of, April and I created this one night about a month ago)

And like I said this list isn't even complete, but these are the kind of things that keep me loving college even when it does get hard.
