Seasons
I know I haven't written on here for a VERY long time, especially since facebook is around and that seems to be the best way I communicate with friends now days. But anyways, I really do feel like writing about the seasons.
Now yes, the season has just transitioned from summer and into a very cold fall. Along with that come the beautiful leaves, daylight hours, General Conference, and so much more! But, Right now the change has been more a change in life. I think I'm starting a new chapter... this is what I"m hoping.
So, as many of you know, that boy and I are no longer dating, which kind of shook things up a bit. But, so many miracles have led me to exactly where I am today it's unfathomable really.
So First off, A few days after we broke up I decided to find myself a new place to live seeing as how living in the same ward just wasn't going to be good for me. So I asked the office if they'd give me permission to switch into a different complex that they also owned. After hearing the circumstance, and the office being filled with girls, they were very understanding. After permission was granted I figured out all of the openings. Alyssa and Meghann though lived in Centennial II and I wished so badly that I could move in with them. Unfortunately not only was there apartment full, the complex, and the ward were full! There weren't even any apartments available in Roman Gardens that was in the same complex. Gosh. So I decided I didn't care that wouldn't be a big deal and I would move into Roman Gardens anyways. I was desperate, I mean it's the truth. So I'm about to sign a contract when I ask one more time what the chances of a slot opening up in Centennial II would be like. The girl then mentioned that one person was thinking about switching over from that complex into Roman Gardens.... my hesitancy was still great because I really only wanted to live with Alyssa and Meghann.. but If I scoped out who'd be in that apartment before hand and checked things out that would make my decision so much easier. So... I ask any for any details I can get... and I ask what apartment that girl lived in. She answered "Apt. 15". I thought I was having one of those moments where you totally blank out what the person is saying because you want to be hearing something else. But, once I realized I wasn't completely insane, I so excitedly replied "You're not mistaken are you? Are you SURE it's 15?" Poor girl, I didn't mean to doubt her, I just didn't think it could be true that one of Alyssa's roomates was planning on moving out. This girl didn't tell any of her roomates and honestly it was a miracle... I had the chance to sign a contract with Alyssa in this very apartment and I turned it up over the summer... but that thought didn't cross my mind when the opportunity came along again. So the girl did end up moving out, and I moved in!
Next thing on my list was to change all my classes that I had with you know who. So one of my co-workers saw me changing my classes, and we started talking to eachother about a few teachers and she recommended a few to me. So I finally managed my classes so I could take from these professors. I went to my first day of class, and it was amazing... both of them were... I ended up dropping my one main course (Psych. Statistics), and am only taking Living Prophets, and D&C (the second half).
So let me step back a little bit. The day after the beau broke up with me Alyssa and Meghann decided that we needed to play games so I could take my mind off of other things. So they invited a bunch of people from their ward over and we played a few games. One of the boys there was somewhat flirty towards me... saying a few cute things about the game and myself and such. Anyways... that is where it all starts really.

So about this boy.
This same week I moved in, and that weekend we decided we must play games again... So of course I wanted to invite the flirty and attractive boy to play games. But of course inviting that one person means you too have to invite everyone else in the ward so he isn't aware that you are indeed interested. Yes, and the games began. So, I invited him ... and he didn't come... So on Sunday I wrote a love note to everyone that I knew in the ward... which at the time wasn't many people, so It wasn't too bad. But I wrote one to him-Jarom.
Then on Monday he must have seen me walking about 40 feet behind him after FHE because he turned around and said "Hey Teri, can I carry that for you?" And of course, I'm deaf.. so I said "Whhhhhaaattt?" Then I was closer to him and he asked if he could carry my back pack for me. Umm.. yeah.. amazingly cute. So, we walk home and are asking the regular get to know you questions... I find out he is from Wisconsin.. which is a lot like Minnesota... also find out his brother goes to the University of Minnesota... but it gets better.. I also find out that we have the same professor for the same class... only at a different time. I thought... huh.. I'm walking with a cute, genuinely nice boy, who I am interested in, and happens to have the same professor for the same class. ... yes-just has to be irony right?
So, the next day I call to ask him what our homework is for that class... but we realized I'm in a night class, and he has his during the day three times a week. But in this conversation he did say, "Teri you should switch to my class so that we can be friends." Umm.. to him that didn't mean anything... it was just a nice thing to say... but in my mind I'm thinking "You have no idea how badly I want to be your friend..... wait no.... more than that.. more accurately your girlyfriend." Just kidding.. at that point I wasn't as smitten.. but I'm past the point of return now. I am smitten. Yes it's true.
This story will be continued later... but I have to post this so that other posts won't show up anymore! The story gets better by the way!
