Random stuff that have happened lately...

New Job

As u guys already know I moved to Morgan about 2 weeks ago to work up here for the summer. I am living with my friend Alyssa Workman and her family and I am working at their ranch called Tifie. I try to work about 10 hours everyday so I can have enough money to pay for school at the end of this summer ya know.
So far, I freaking love this place. I get very tired at the end of everyday of course, but I enjoy working outdoors. I get to play with the 4wheelers, and all the tools. My mom calls it man work cause its hard work sometimes. Im starting to get all sore everywhere. Hopefully my body will get used to it soon.
I had almost forgotten how much I love
Morgan, UT. This place is very green it is so nice to breath fresh air everyday. The only bad thing is that I have to work in the rain most of the days. The weather is crazy up here. It can be sunny for an hour and then rain and so on...

Most of the days I get to work with a guy called Garret. He is a year younger than me and I know him from high school. We get along most of the time and I enjoy working with him. My manager's name is Rob. He is a funny guy. He makes fun of me most of the time but I think we have a good friendship going on.

Healthier living

Since I came up here I have been eating so much better. It is so nice to have some kind of parents looking after you. It feels nice to have all kinds of food and soy milk in the refrigerator everyday, and to be able to eat whatever u want whenever u want.
I also have been working out 3 times a week and my body just feels so much better. I am way out of shape of course, but hopefully by the end of the summer I will be able to run for 30 min without almost dying haha :)
Working 10 hours a day, 5 days a week makes me very tired so I try to go to bed around 10 pm. I have found out that going to bed early and waking up early works so much better for me.

Learning new things

I have had the opportunity to have a bunch of new experiences. I get to work with a lot of different things up in the ranch. They let me drive the 4wheelers and ranger almost everyday and that makes me very happy. I have learned how to use a bow and an arrow the right way. I got to mow the lawn for the first time in my life yesterday and i felt like the machine was stronger than me. I got to play paintball and it hurt very much but I had a blast.
I am learning how to live like a vegetarian and to be honest it is not that bad. I love meat of course, but I have realized that I don't need to eat it that often.
Besides those things, there are a bunch of other little things that make my day special.

Missing Salt Lake

The time seems to go so fast up here. Maybe it is because I work everyday and don't have time to really worry about the rest of the world.
It is weird not to see my friends everyday or not to live in a hotel anymore. I kinda miss the random walks around temple square and the talks with Hanna banana. It feels weird to think that while I am here working, my friends are going to school, or doing homework.
It is fun to disconnect from the real world for a while. I think I am going to enjoy my summer very much.
