Hey family,
This is my last full weekend here at SUU for this school year. It is kind of depressing, leaving some really good friends for the summer but then it gives me a chance to visit my old friends and of course my family and that I get to make new friends this summer when I come back in June and when classes start back up.
As for the Cabinet position that I was running for...I didn't get, but it is ok because I get to work with the School Spirit Coordinator and I get to remain the president of Thor Corps because I am the head of the Thor Corps Board. I'm not sure what happens or what I will even do yet but I'm just glad I get to get to do something with the student government.
Today I am almost done with my hardest art project yet. I'm really excited to see it all finished and to see how it looks all around. Sorry but I can't put a picture up of it right after I get done because it wont be dry enough for me to bring it back to my apartment but as soon as I can I will post a picture for everyone with the finished relief and the picture that I used for the relief.
I'm off to work on my webpage portfolio for my digital imaging final.

Upcoming
Hey family,
Finals are coming up fast and I feel unprepared. Go figure. My hardest class is Philosophy but I have faith that I will do well on my final in that class and I have been studying for that class pretty dang hard. All of my other classes are going good, nothing to difficult but I still have a week of regular classes left.
I am going to be moving back to Emery County May 1st because I finish with all of my finals on Thursday. It will feel so good to sleep in and not have classes for a few months but I think I will get bored quick because I wont have anything to do during the days really. I don't remember if I mentioned in my last entry that I did get the job with the Shakespeare festival. I can't wait to start and to be making money again. Working here in Cedar helps me with more than just one job. I can apply to some of the stores here during the summer for a job during the day and then I can have a job after the festival is over. I'm hoping I can find one though. :S
I had my interview for the student government position a few weeks ago and I have been so anxious to find out if I got one of the positions that I wanted. I will finally get to know tomorrow sometime. I can't wait to find out, I am so excited to be making a change here with in the campus and student body.
It's time to get back to studying now,
Austin

Good Friday
Hey family,
This week has went by super fast.
I went in for an interview for the student government position I applied for, I feel like it went well but only time will tell.
Also, some great news. I got the summer job at the Shakespeare festival that I was trying for. I start work on June 22 and I am going to move in June 21 if not earlier. I had the chance to stay here in Cedar after school to help move some furniture and stuff around for the place where I will be living but I would never make it back home so I decided not to. I want to see everyone for at least a little bit.
June 4- 10 my mom,, Royce, and I will be staying in Washington with the Heather, Rob, and Maisy. I can't wait to see them and finally visit Washington. When I'm there I want to visit the art institute in Seattle so I can see if I like that school and if I want to go there after I graduate from SUU. I can't wait
After the trip to Washington Royce and I are going camping with my dad, Tedann,Ryker, Tylynn, Tate, Bo, and Jerica (yes I know I spelled them wrong. It is early in the morning for me) and the rest of the Gillins family. I'm not sure where we are going but it is going to be a way fun trip and I can't wait to go on this trip either. This will be the only time I get to go camping this summer unless I want to make a short trip up the canyon here in Cedar on a Sunday and come back Monday afternoon so I can work.
Until later,
Austin

Long Weekend
Hey all,
This weekend has been a long one, it started off just like any other weekend, sorta. My roommate Cameron was inaugurated into his position of the Humanities and Social Sciences senator for his college so I went there with him to attend and see the new student body president give a speech. It was nice though, after I was invited to a nice dinner with the new and the old student body president. That food was good and it was free to me so it made it delicious.
After that I got back to my apartment to just hang out for a little bit and play a little halo with my roommates, after a few hours of that we decided to play a game Cameron learned when at a retreat for his new senate position. It is called Werewolf, you just have 2 or 3 werewolf's, depending on how many people are playing, a fortune teller, cupid, hunter, little girl, and witch. Basically everyone tries to find the werewolfs and kill them before everyone else dies. It is a really fun game. we started playing that with a few people from our floor and the one below us, we started at 11 and we finished at 4. after that game we came back to our apartment and made some waffles because all of us were starving. When we finished eating we came back to good ol' halo. I finally got to bed at 5:30.
After that long night playing werewolf I was up at 9 to go paintballing with some of my cousins in St. George and my friends. I have a really big welt on my neck from where I was hit twice, in the same spot actually, and a few other places.
All in all I had a long but fun and exciting weekend full of laughs, bruises, and long naps.
Hope to see you all soon,
Austin
