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

Spring break

Hey all,

Spring Break is coming to an end today and it looks like a pretty windy day. I enjoyed having a full week of classes off, minus getting my wisdom teeth out. It was fun to see my Mom, Royce, Dad, and Tedann for a few days just to visit. I just wish that spring break was a little longer, I am no where near ready for classes to start again and have to fall into the rut once more.

I got an email the other day on the summer job for the Shakespeare festival here at the school, I emailed the lady back telling her what I wanted to do and now I just have to wait to see if I need to be interveiwed or if I just get the job. Fingers crossed!

Can't wait to see everyone again!!!

Austin

Non the wiser

Hey all,

Just a small update for right now, I got my wisdom teeth out today. Fun I know. I didn't swell up to bad but a little still. It didn't really hurt getting them out either, but I was numbed up pretty good and I had some gas to help me. Hopefully I will heal up pretty quick, I want to eat food normally again!!! The Doc didn't put me on any hardcore pain killers either, just a few Advil and Ibuprofen every few hours and an antibiotic, which we learned has amoxicilin in it and I am allergic so now I have to watch for rashes and bumps to see if I react to it or not. The best part is that I only had 3 so I can say I'm still just a little wise still ;)

Your sore mouthed college student,

Austin

Really late post

Sorry for the really late post everyone.

Nothing really fun going on here in Cedar City right now. I went paintballing with my dad, Tedann, Royce, Tylynn, Ryker, and Tate this weekend with Kyle and Carla and all of them down in St. George. It was a lot of fun, lots of welts all around and I was just glad I got to shot my dad up a bit with some paint!! This week has been fairly exciting I guess, it snowed about 3 inches the other day ruining the good weather we had and my roommate Cameron ran and won a senate position for his college, Humanities and Social Sciences.

This upcoming week is spring break and boy I can't wait, well I probably could, I get my wisdom teeth out next Monday but I guess it is better now than later, I will only be home for a few days though. I have an art project that I need to finish. I'll post a picture of it when I am all done :)

The week right after spring break I am going to be submitting an application for a cabinet position for next year here at the school, I'll have to touch up my resume and make a good impression with the new Student Body President, who happens to be a friend of mine, ;) so I'm sure I have a shot at it, that and no one usually goes for the position I am going for...

Other than that it has been pretty calm and quite here in Cedar City, still no word on the summer job, tomorrow though, the lady is suppose to be in her office tomorrow so my roommates and I will call her and see about our interviews.

Until this Friday,

Austin

Friday update on Sunday

Hey all,

This weekend has been pretty slow. Just discovered parts of Cedar City on Friday night with two of my roommates and one of our friends. Yesterday I did absolutely nothing, literally I sat in our apartment doing nothing. Today I went shopping and just chilled here at my apartment with my roommate, nothing new or exciting really happening. Hopefully this coming week will be more fun and exciting!!!

Love ya,

Austin
