Special Olympics

Today I got a call from my aunt and she told me that my cousin would be participating in Special Olympics basketball games here in Salt Lake City.  He plays with the BYU team and they won all three games today.  I was there for the last two and watched the award ceremony.  It was so heartwarming and just enjoyable to watch.   I loved how everyone just played their best and had so much fun doing so.  The Special Olympic community is really awesome.  Here is a picture of my cousin's team.  He is the one laying on the floor. 

Fall Break

I needed a break from school and work and Salt Lake City, and that's exactly what I got this past week.  I went home for five wonderful days.  It was really great being home.  On the drive back up, my sister and her roommate came back up with me.  It was awesome rockin' out on the road with them.  We listened to awesome tunes and it was like blast from the past when we used to go on vacation when we were little.  Oh how I wish fall break wasn't almost over, but I just keep telling myself in 9 weeks I will have a bachelor's degree.  :)  Then it will be like a permanent break until I go back for a Masters Degree.
