AN IOWA STATE UPDATE!

hey everyone, I thought I'd write something just because I look at this every day and it's been a while since somebody wrote something!!
Let me just start off by saying that Iowa State BEAT the University of Iowa!! we beat them 15-13, we scored no touchdowns, all field goals haha, but it was one of the best football games I've ever been to! So, now Iowa is a cyclone state again! (corny, I know).


Anyways, school is going pretty good!
My room is amazing, it is almost as big as my room at home (maybe bigger I don't know)- It fits two lofted beds with desk/dresser underneath, futon, fridge, four littler roller dressers, and we have two big closets! Bri is my roommate, I met her last year and we've been best friends ever since. I see her a lot less this year because her boyfriend now goes here but it's okay because I like being in here by myself to relax and of course do homework! My dorm is much better than last year, the girls are nicer and the guys are too (its coed). I have some hard classes like ECON, other than that everything else is okay. I am reading all the time I have soo many books for each class. I am also taking social psychology which is very interesting; I really enjoy that class (I also have it with Steven =)), anthropology which is okay - also with steven, and journalism mass communication which is a fun class, my teacher is psycho, but shes awesome haha. The other class I am taking is World Religions which is pretty good, it's been kinda easy-I get a week to take exams and I get to take them home and they are open note-open book so I like that!

I have a job at Bath and Body Works here in Ames. So far it's been going great! I have had lots of hours this past week because I was one of the few that had to prep for inventory, and I also had to be there at 6AM Sunday morning last weekend which was terrible, but I got paid to sit around and watch people count for four hours haha. I get more hours here than I did during the summer at the BBW at the Commons.

For all of you who really want to know, Steven and I are great! This friday is our 10 month!! I told him I would pay, but he doesn't know that I am cooking him an italian themed dinner! I'm very nervous about cooking this because I can't cook haha, but it's just spaghetti, meatballs, and garlic bread. My mom sent me a bunch of decorations to put in my dorm, so it's going to be very decorated and be as italian as a dorm room can be! I have been looking forward to doing this since our last anniversary haha, so I am very excited! But other than that, we're good! We just got two new fishys! We are soo excited about them! We got them about a week or so ago and actually his first one died, so we got another one and he is doing great! My fishs name is Nala and his is named Lieutenant Dan (from Forest Gump). They both are very lively, but mine is way more spastic than his haha.



I am most likely coming home next weekend or the weekend after that to see Oma because she leaves soon. (No offense to anybody else-I'm sure I'll see some of you =)) In about three weeks is Family weekend here so I'm pretty excited about that, it was so much fun last year!

I think thats about all I have to report on about my life for now! I hope everyone is well and if you wanna come visit me you can because I would love it! (I have a futon, so you could probablly fit three people on it! hehe)
have a great day everyone!
