To Papa:

This post is dedicated to Papa Barnes.  Well I heard that you liked everyone's blog except mine because I hadn't posted in a while, but now this one is solely for you and to catch you up on my comings and goings.  It is a little surreal to be a sophomore in college.  I remember being a sophomore in high school and thinking then that I was "something", my how time flies.  But school started.  I can honestly say this is going to be my least favorite semester, not because of where I am but more of what classes I am taking.  I am trying to finish my foundation classes, so I have two sciences, one international, one religion, and one English, all of which are foundations.  I am taking only one core class and I love it, reminding me every day I have class that I have chosen the right career for me.  I am working on my associates with a major in Generals and a cluster in Nutrition since BYU-Idaho does not have nutrition as a major here, which is sad, because I love it up here.  But I would rather pursue my career than stay in a place that I like, I can always re-adapt.  Well my social life is just like it has always been.  It consists of jumping from one soccer game to the next, I try to not take part, because of my knee, but I can't help to not play at all, so Ill juggle or pass lightly with some friends.  Coaching is going really good.  The boys may not think I know what I am doing, but they will learn that I know what I am doing and I am right.  And if they don't learn that, they can run.  Na, I'm just kidding I am not that harsh, but I do enjoy it because I can say that soccer is something that I am the most comfortable in, I learn new things every day, but know enough to have productive practices.  I was telling Ayla the other day that if they had a major in soccer I would make a 4.0 always. =)  Let me see, dating scene is fine, no one has made an impression on me enough to want to pursue, but that is OK, I am only 20...which in "world" years is young but in "Mormon years" I am almost out of my prime years, so no worries I am working on getting married ;)  Just kidding, I am in no hurry....through all my years of surgeries I have learned to not plan really, so what happens happens when it is meant to happen.  So I live life carefree with a short outline of what I want to happen next, but with lots of  extra room for change.  Well, I hope this post will suffice until my next post, and I will try to write each week, mom told me it would be a good Sunday activity, so perhaps I will do just that.  But I love you both, Papa and Grandmother, hope to see you soon.  Also I will be sure to take pictures at every opportunity I can to make sure you get to look at pictures too=)
