Emmy Update
Hi Grandpa,
I thought life would slow down a little bit once school ended, but that hasn't been the case so far. My finals went well. Except microeconomics, but the class average was a 62% so I don't feel bad about it. I still ended up with good grades, and that's all that matters. Friday Jax moved all my stuff to his and Aubrey's new house for the weekend because I couldn't move into my new apartment until Monday. I had to say goodbye to my roommates. Even though we are living together in the fall it was sad. It was especially hard to say goodbye to Gentry because I can't visit her over the summer. It'll be good though. New people means new adventures and I have to get out of my comfort zone a little. At the time of my last letter I didn't know where I was going to live because everywhere I wanted to was full. On Wednesday I got a call that someone had dropped out, and I was next on the waiting list, so luckily I'm not homeless. :)
I am in the same ward and I know a few people so it'll be really fun. The apartment is way bigger than I realized and it's actually pretty nice. I have five roommates again. Four of them were already friends, but they're super nice. The girl who I share a room with was in my ward and institute class last semester. I don't know her well, but she is an accounting major also. I really like the other four. One is from Wyoming, two are from Riverton, and one is from South Carolina. I think we'll get along pretty well. (Of course that's what I thought the last time and two of my roommates moved out. ;)
We went to a Cinco de Mayo party at the A Team house on Tuesday. I'm not one for parties but I made a goal this summer to get out of my shell and go to more social events. It was fun.
I've been working 8-5 this week. Yesterday was Sara's (the girl who I replaced) last day so now I'm on my own and I have to be a big girl. I think I'll be fine though. I've gotten the hang of the job and I really enjoy it. I'll switch off between working 29 and 40 hours every other week so hopefully I'll be able to just make bank and save all my paychecks while I still have relatively few expenses.
I want to hear that story about the cemetery!
How's Grandma doing?
Love you!
