Memories of a College Girl

I got on MySpace to check my messages tonight, and found a message for a girl I went to college with- the FIRST time I went to college! Way back at Evans. Yes, wow. I was shocked. I haven't even thought about Evans for a while. See, Evans represents a very emotional and difficult time in my life. I did some really great things there. It was the first thing I had ever finished. And since I knew I was going to grad college, I decided there was no reason I shouldn't be able to grad high school, too. So I did double duty for the last four months of college and did 2+ years of high school as well. I ended up finishing college on April 7 and high school on April 8. The walking graduation ceremony for the high school was the following June, and I got to walk right alongside my sister, Rebeka, who graduated high school at the same time. (Pics can be seen on my profile.) The graduation ceremony for the college was the following August, and all the girls that had graduated in the previous year walked. There are many other memories that I have refused to think about, but luckily, the good ones came back when LaChelle messaged me. And while looking at her profile, I saw a bunch of other ladies I was good friends with back then, so I sent out a few messages of my own. Then I realized they had a group set up for the Evans girls. Duh! Sadly, they didn't have the Orem location (anybody know how to submit a school) so I added both the St George and the Cedar City, until I can get the Orem location on the map.
I was having a hard day today. Cranky, headache, and not so friendly. It was really nice to get a sweet message from a way cute chicka to brighten my day :)

Evans moved in Orem. Not sure if you knew that. It's right off the Lindon hill now. That's sweet though!

I knew it moved, I just haven't had a chance to visit the new location yet. I hear it is beautiful.

Yes it is actually. Where they used to be was an old grocery store we went to. The old guy was nice. The new place is much bigger. ;)
