In the Life of Kendy....

I have just been thinking that I am pretty much spoiled. I know it is hard to admit, but there it is! My daddyo would just love that one. He always encourages us to admit this and to be proud of the fact that we are spoiled. My father called me last week and told me that we are switching phone services YET again.

Since I am not at home to have my phone swapped, I will be getting a new phone number and a new phone. Specifically an iPhone. :) I know I am spoiled! For all of those who have negative thoughts in my direction I would like to say that it is a used phone. My dad got the new iPhone and now he is giving his old one to my older brother and then my older brother is giving me his. And then my mom is getting my dad's other old one. Man alive we have quite a large quantity of iPhone's in our possession in my family.

It will be weird to have a new number though. I have had the same phone number since about junior year of high school. Wow, that has been quite a long time! Crazy how time flies.

So, the time is coming for graduation and I am getting asked the repetitive question of what I am going to do with my life. I would like to help alleviate the worries of everyone and tell you that I have a small understanding of what I might like to do! Quite exciting, I know!

In the course of my studies here at BYU, I have been doing a lot of work with plants and such and it has encouraged me to look into the Green industry. I was looking online at some places up in Washington and I found this amazing nursery up in Redmond! They have some amazing things about them that has really made me consider to work for them... in the future of course. Well after graduation basically. My mother dear looked at the website and was excited for me also! So things are going quite well in that department. It feels quite good to know what you will be doing somewhat in the future.

Just pure relief.

Another semester has begun...

Since I will be graduating this April, I have decided to basically die this semester! I am currently taking 17 credits and working about 20 hours a week! I don't know why... Well actually I do know why but I don't know how I got to this point. I just recently added on my minor of Landscape Design last Winter semester and fell in love with it! With this horrible timing of being a senior in all I am trying to get as many Landscape classes in as possible. I am taking Landscape Structures, Careers in Horticulture, Interior Landscapes, Herbaceous Plants, Intro to Family Processes, Money in the Family, and Living with Plants. Luckily most of the classes are 2 credit classes and are not as difficult as the 3 credit courses. But still... it is a lot to handle in one semester.

Don't worry it will be crazy but I have to do it! This leaves next semester to take Soil Science, Landscape Graphics, Arboriculture, Bidding and Estimating, and then some other odd and end classes for my major. This is what I get for slacking off all those semesters by only taking 12 or even less credits.

My deep hope is that this semester will be bearable. I just need to finish, get along with next semester and then GRADUATE! Quite exciting! I have no idea what I will be doing after I graduate though! Now going into Landscape Design there are so many more opportunities. My careers class will help me a lot to figure out what I want to do and also the Career/Internship Fair next month will also steer me in the right direction. I have been looking at some companies at home to see if I would be interested in working with them. There are just so many choices! I will just have to see where I will be going!

But have no worries, I will be going to Washington! I don't think I could be in Utah for one more year. I think I have had my wonderful experience here and it is time to move on. I have heard from many that once you leave you will miss it, but I refuse to be in that group. I have had my time in Provo and don't regret a minute of it! But I need to move on and not dwell on what I will be leaving behind. I am going to try to have the right attitude here. Let's hope... Well I better be off do some more of the never-ending homework! Peace...
