update on all of life...how old does a horse have to be before it turns into a bull?

So i have been getting in trouble because i have not updated this thing in quite some time...first off in my life...
I'm in my second year at SUU (I'm a sophomore almost junior i need to clarify that because i'm not going to be like my old roommate who is a third year returning freshman!) and i actually am enjoying it this time around i have my own room which has been designated the green room (everything in my room is pretty much green) so i live in the green room of the arby's house- I live directly behind Arby's which is fine...EXCEPT for the fact that every morning around 4:30 or 5 the garbage monster (truck) decides to come out and wake me up! I do not smell like roast beef sandwhiches or curly fries much to Amandas dismay living in the Arby's house. I have switched my major from Biology pre-med to undecided...I am not undecided it is just I had to put that in order to get out of the freakin science department! I have now decided I want to go into Social Work- the problem is they do not have a bacholors of Social Work at SUU anymore so I'll either have to go into Criminal Justice or Psychology or transfer schools after I get my associates degree...I could also go into Sociology but after my Maymester from hell I don't think sociology was "my thing". As of right now I really think I'll go the Criminal Justice route becasue I really don't want to have to move all of my stuff and I have made some pretty decent friends down here (Amanda we won't go into the fact that I know I have made some (one who tries to make my life a living hell) really crappy friends too we will skip over that fact for the time being!) It would be quite interesting if I actually were to go into Criminal Justice and go into social work that way...it would kinda run in the family...well the Stowe side of the family doing criminal justice-
well that is my update on school...
As for work I am working at Great Harvest Bread Co. I love it...I have been working there a little over a month now and it really is so much fun...usually I just give out free slices of bread to people (I was super ticked when I thought I hadn't gotten the job because heck who can't give out free bread to people) well the past week I learned how to do sandwhiches and well needless to say I'm not very fast at making them...I have countless times put my hand on the Pannini grill or touched the steamer...yes i know it isn't very bright but i apparently keep forgetting that those things are hot!
I went to an institute class for the first time...my roommate made me go with her...yeah she went to preparing for eternal marriage...i couldn't let myself take that class! I went the one time and that was more than enough for me...so I switched to Mission Prep (that class actually could apply to me at this point in my life- i really wish girls didn't have to wait until they are 21 to go- why can't we go when we are 19 too?)
Oh I figured out this week what I really want to do! I decided skydiving isn't dangerous enough- I want to ride a bull! Pretty much every person in Cedar City, UT is a total red neck, hick, or cowboy (yes there is a difference between all three)
Red Neck: Loves Nascar wants to move back to Overton, NV and own a mechanics shop...
Hick: drunk cowboys
Cowboy: The guy who does rodeos
so being around them has started to rub off on me- I guess it isn't too bad and I bet my dad will be happy that I'm around all these cowboys he likes to tell me I'd be a lucky girl to marry a cowboy...i think he just wants an excuse to get a horse sometimes...well I went to two rodeos this week and well I decided the first night I was there that I want to ride bulls- I don't know how much my parents will approve of it- but heck they didn't have too much of a choice in my skydiving so I figure this is just the next step in getting an adrenaline rush- I told my friend Susie this but then I also had to tell her I've never actually rode a horse...so she said I had to ride a horse before she would let me ride a bull- I guess up in Bryce Canyon there is a place you can go and ride a Jr. Bull or something like that and so I'd do that instead of a full on big mean killing machine bull!
Well at this point I am just rambling and so I better stop I hope everyone is doing well- I will be able to update this more often now that we have internet at the Arby's house!

hurray for an update!! You are so funny!
As for the bull situation...Um, did you not notice the HUGE horns that come out of bulls heads? They will impale you if you bump into them. I am going to give you the motherly advice of STAY AWAY! RUN!
You are a silly crazy girl! Can't wait to have more regular updates!! ;) Chelsea
