BYU Hawaii

well i've been here at byu hawaii for almost two months now. it has been quite the roller coaster of ups and downs but all in all its been an amazing experience. when i first came here i didn't know anyone and hated it completely, but that didn't last. i guess i'll just go over basics of my life here :]
school is going pretty well, i'm taking 12 credits so just four classes but its been good to be able to have a smooth adjustment from the high school workload (or lack thereof,considering my senior year) to being in college. i'm taking
chinese 101
intro to theatre
intro to cultural anthropology
book of mormon
the classes are much more boring than i expected most of the time, but its whatever.
i also work at the Polynesian Cultural Center five days a week, waitressing at the lu'au called Hale Aloha. i really like working at the PCC, its an amazing place and im glad to be a part of the experience for the tourists. i remember how much it meant to me when i came a few years ago and i absolutely loved the chance to be there so i hope i contribute to that for other people.

also, in the post below are some of my favorite pictures that i've taken while being here of the places i've gone and some of the good friends i've made
