So there is the schedule but now for the fun stuff, it is so great to be a normal college students, I feel like I am actually at school. So I got my Zona Zoo pass and was able to go to the first football game again Citadel, we WON!! Yahoo!! It was a great game; our football team pretty much murdered them. I tried to go to the Iowa game but Zona Zoo was filled 10 minutes after it opened so we did not make it in unfortunately. But we did get to ride a fun little bicycle cart. So I ended up watching the game at the Aggie House, it was an intense game but we won of course!! Up to this point UA Football has a 4-0 record! Go U of A!! School o school- it has been killing me. My classes are super stressful, I feel like I am always doing homework or going to tutoring, but I am determined to keep my grades up or in the case right now make sure I do really good on my next tests because doing bad stresses me out more!

Sigma Alpha!!! I am pledging to be a professional sorority, at rush we played games and fun things to get to know each other. The next week I was given my bid and of course I accepted; I am now an MC (membership candidate). Now we have meetings every week where we take tests about history of sororities and sigma alpha. The girls are great and I can’t wait to be an active! At a breakfast two weeks ago we got our big sis’, my big sis is Jillian, she is super sweet and I can’t wait to spend time with her.

Roommates, I love the boy’s to death! They always keep me on my toes, there is never nothing going on in our apartment, lately they have been making music with Michael and Sam (adopted roommates). It is hilarious to watch because none of them are that musically talented except Michael and kind of Kevin. So basically they just make noise and try to sing. Or you will catch them playing with their model kits for Chemistry making bonds for fun- they are such nerds! It has been nice having them though because they are a tremendous help for my homework!! Ryan has moved back to Gilbert because he had a problem with school and financial aid which makes me super sad because he always agrees with me, now I always lose everything, and he makes the best cookies ever!!

Chris took me to fossil springs it turned out to be an 11 miles hike but it was absolutely gorgeous. We left his grandparents house at 8 am and got there by 10, we made it down to the waterfalls had a picnic, swam in the beautiful BUT freezing water!
On the hike back we got a little lost and hiked an extra 2 miles out of our way so by the time we started the uphill climb back we were so exhausted! I thought my legs were going to fall off and roll away- they didn’t though. We made it back to the car at 6:40 pm, by that time we were so exhausted and hungry for a cheeseburger we stopped at the local strawberry lodge for a cheeseburger and fries. It was the best cheeseburger and fries I have ever eaten, actually I am not even sure that I completely enjoyed it because I ate it so fast. On the way home I fell asleep and was out of it for the rest of the night.

And that is pretty much my life right now- School, work, homework, tutoring, eating, and sleeping!!!!

Labor Day Weekend!

Labor Day weekend I went up to the lake to see everyone!! On my way to Gilbert, I had the privilege of having Ms. Laura Stump ride with me, I always love hearing her stories about traveling the world. What a crazy girl!! Friday night I got home around 6 but Lauren and Alli were not ready to go because they went to the high school football game. I waited for a while and was super exhausted so we decided to stay until Saturday morning and drive up then. Saturday morning I was woke up by a phone call from Nileah wondering where I was, we all got ready and headed up to the lake. We got up there around 11am and hung out with everyone for a while. We then decided to go to the lake, it was so beautiful out and the water was the perfect temperature!! We all swam a lot, jumping off the towering, playing games, Nileah wakeboarded and then I proceeded to wakeboard. Well it was choppy so I stopped so we could move to a different spot, the water was ok, definitely not glass though. I jumped the first time, landed perfectly, then I go to jump the other side of the wake. Yup, I crashed.....BAD! Something was wrong, I knew because I was face down in the water and could not move, Niane jumped in the water to help me, mom and Niane slowly flipped me over and took off my bindings. I laid down on the back step and my hip popped in, thats not very good we though, so I laid on the bottom of the boat the rest of the way home. When I got home I laid down and iced and iced and iced and then iced some more. As I was laying there, all of a sudden I am hugged from behind, I was like "what in the world?" SURPRISE!! Christopher came up for the rest of the weekend to surprise me! That was an amazing surprise especially since I would be on the couch for the rest of it. Sunday my parents took me to our friend Marty who is a chiropractor so he could look at my hip, turns out I rotated my femur, ouch! painful! But he fixed it so I could walk :) So that's pretty much my labor day weekend, couch, tv, snacks, chilling in the pool, icing my hip! Not the best weekend ever but it was good to see everyone!

New Car!!

ahhhh!!

what's going on?!?

New car! So fancy!

So many words cannot explain what happened yesterday!! I am super super super excited!! Dad and mom did such a fantastic job of surprising me :) All I thought I was doing was going out to lunch with my daddy because he was working down here. We were walking down University just talking about how my job interview went, I will talk about that more at the end of the week with my post, but all of a sudden a car alarm started going off and daddy kept saying "turn your alarm off" and "I don't have a car or keys, (I kept looking around to see who he was talking to)" Then he handed me they keys and I was like "What?!?!?" To see the least I was a little discombobulated for a minute until I figure out it was real!! It is a manual 2010 Toyota Corolla!!! So excited, I have only driven it twice but I already love it and can't wait to figure out all the fancy gadgets on it!! My parents are amazing and I can't believe I have a beautiful brand new car!!

First Week Of what?!? SCHOOL!!!

The summer is gone and its time to get back in school mode, now for me thats a literal statement, I didnt know how hard it was to go back into school mode full time. Let's just say my first week of school felt like an eternity! But let's start with the week before school started. The week before school I was a little out of it because of all my procedures(that would be gastro & wisdom teeth) all in the same week, going under twice in one week, well lets just say I was on the couch ALOT!!! But it was a fantstic week because I spent alot of time with family, Chris, and my best friend KENDRA!!! I haven't spent time with her in ages and she came over and spent the whole day with me even though I was a little loopy! On Friday and Saturday before, I helped with COLT (Chapter Officer Leadership Training), which is an FFA event that Arizona FFA puts on, I did three workshops, two with my mentee and one about floriculture! Saturday after COLT, I went out to lunch with Kendra and Katie for one last goodbye before our lives change! It was so special to spend the extra time with them especially since Katie is leaving for school in California next semester and Melody(Kendra's baby girl) will be here on September 20th! After that, I loaded up my jeep and headed down to Tucson! Chris of course came down to help me get settled in and the boys had a "little" before school starts party which was fun, except I was too worried about school starting to actually enjoy everyones company. Sunday- well that flew by, I don't even remember what I did to be completely honest. Monday morning: 6:30am- Good Morning Kalea! It's your first real day of college at the University of Arizona! 9am-sitting in Calculus (oh boy its going to be a hard semester) 10am-Chemistry (I am soooo lost! What in the world is he talking about?!) BREAK otherwise known as fight everyone in getting your books and watch all the freshman struggle to find their classes. 1pm- Lab (Longest class of my life{my teacher has only been America from India for 3 weeks, talk about a language barrier} 4:50pm- DONE with my first day of school!!! Aftre this I went to the mall and chopped all my hair off!! Then I went over to Chelsea's house for dinner, she made some delcious lasagna for us and we sat there and talked for two hours about random nothing. After that home for homework and day 2 of school! TUESDAY!!! 8am- English 102 (oh boy, rhetorical analysis, lady seriously?! when am I ever going to use this) 9:30am- Trad 104 Mind, Matter,and God aka The Mind Trick Class with 500 students!! My professors favorite word/motion-BOING!! 11am- AED 301 YES! The class I am preceptoring for that I took last year and it was amazing! After school I went home and watched My Family's Wedding with Ryan....Then it was time for fajita's at Christian Challenge! Good to see everyone again- I cannot wait to see what God ois going to do on the UA campus this year :) Wednesday- the cycle starts again~Math, Chemistry, and another chemistry class! That night I went to another christian group called CRU where I know a family friend of Christophers family and his name happens to be Chris also. That was super fun and good to experience something new! I decided that I am going to make this year a year to remember so I am going to try lots of different clubs and do everything I possible can! And Thursday and Friday are the same as the rest of the week. yay for repetitive classes! Oh except Thursday I did meet with a florist because I am working with Tanque Verde FFA to help them get a floriculture team started. Which is right up my alley, he is an awesome guy and will do wonders for their team! That same night I went to Chelsea's for dinner to help Jared prepare for national office, we had too much fun and I am not sure how much we actually got done but it was lots of fun! The weekend went by fast with homework and company of friends!! Sunday I did get to go home and see Lauren & Chris for a bit! I am kind of a failure at pictures for the first week, but I will put some up soon!

How I dry my laundry!!!! Oh mommy, why did you make me so particular about laundry!(Yes, that is my shower)
