So for now this is just me remembering a few of my favorite things from those first few months back at school each year.
- Like how lucky I am that Kasidee and Marianne met our best Snow guy friends, Dan and Zeb, like the first week we were there (I was introduced to them later obviously).
- And how much anticipation there was every year when Kasidee and I would show up at our new apartment and set up our rooms while we discussed what we thought our new roommates were going to be like. And sometimes we were dead wrong.
- And how simple life used to be. I was so excited and lucky to get a 10-15 hour a week job that paid $6.25/hr. That was more than minimum wage people! And it was absolutely all I needed to live on. In fact, I felt quite rich.
This is the Noyes building, and I totally worked here - up there in the top even. For the Provost. And President Benson even smiled at me here once. -And how thankful I am that my dad talked me into going here. I think there must be something pretty magical about Snow because I think it was magical for him too and he wanted me to experience it. I'm glad he did and I'm glad I did.
Yep. I'm feeling a little Snowsick but I'm happy where I am. Sitting with a crying, stinky baby on my lap as I finish this while my chocolate covered 2 year old watches Horton Hears a Who for the 246th time. I'm content and veryhappy where I am now, but I hope I never stop getting a little Snowsick every August.
P.S. To all the Snow roommates out there that have pictures and stories - please please send them to me when you get a chance. Kiki -I lost my CD of pictures from you. If you make me a new one I'll make you something fabulous in return. I just don't know what...

I can't even think about it cause then I get seriously depressed for like 2 days. I've never had so much fun in my life! We were such hot little things back then too. Oh my, the good ole days:)
wow. I totally feel ya. I get Snowsick all the time! I actually flipped through one of my photo albums from that first year I was there and looked at all our pics! Many you gals were so fun!
Oh and remember our video that Tracy made? hahahaha
Thanks for posting :)
Snow must be magical cause I had an awesome time there too! Luckily my roomates and I get together evey August or September and havea reunion, kind of helps a little. :)
Lol Kas...hot little things?? I guess little might be the key word there! But Kim I don't even remember making you a CD...did I? I am really bad at giving pictures to people! I'm suprised you had any to loose! Isn't that so funny that for the first semester I was the only one with a digital camera and it was seriously a 2.0 megapixel piece of CRAP!
I get Snowsick all year long but you are right, this is definitly the hardest time of year.
In the summer time this area comes alive with all the returning YSA and now they have all left, including Brian's brother, which means that none of the other YSA are going to be hanging out here. Kinda sad. But atleast they won't my kiddos up everynight!
Dear Kim,
I don't think I ever thanked you for letting Taren and me crash at your place...and for letting me watch the meteor shower. :-)
I am very much looking forward to that elaborate 5-year anniversary post. *shifty eyes*
Love,
Jules
