Spring Break 2017

Image
BEST BREAK EVER. Ok, so in highschool, spring break consisted of a family vacation going to Disneyland, and 1st year of college i think i went home, and my 2nd year of college i went to St, George Utah. Those are all super fun and all.. but this year was even better. A group of friends all decided we wanted to go to NewPort Beach, California! First of all, i was STOKED! I never had went on a vacation with atlas 35 of my Best Friends. So after my friend Dustin planned everything financially, and planning who was making what meals and sleeping arrangements, we made our way to Cali! The whole week, the only thing that was getting me through school was just the thought of spending the week with my friends! Boys and girls ( i know i know, we were obedient!), and in the wise words from my friend Ammon Harris "came as friends, left as family". I slept in the living room area ( we had to take turns sleeping on the mattresses because the futons were beyond uncomfortable) and just w...

The Cripple Life, is NOT the Life for Me

Remember in Elementary school when all the guys would try showing off by doing the monkey bars, and then fall and break their arm? Ya.. well that is a mistake for Elementry kids... not 21 year olds that are in college! Once upon a time I went to the gym with my friends, and as we were warming up and stretching, my friend Tori asked if anyone wanted to do the monkey bars, and i said YES because i love the monkey bars! So as i go on the bars after Tori, i am swinging bar to bar, and by the 3rd bar, i was hanging by my right arm to lift up and grab the bar with my left arm, and my right arm slipped right then and there, and i crashed onto the floor and landed right on my left arm, and it was all upper body, none of my lower body landed first.. so it hurt really bad! As i was rolling around yelling and yelling, my friends ran over to check on me, and my friend Ethan from the other side of the gym heard me and came over to see if i was ok.. and i couldn't move! As i was getting evalua...

I, Megan Brown, am known as someone super social, "Queen of Social Media, friendly, caring, and loved. I like to post my life so that my family can see i am doing well, so that friends can see that college is fun, and for my pleasure of seeing that i am having fun. Lately this has not been the situation. This post may seem sappy, but this is my current life! Not everyone lives a perfect life, and a lot of people think I live a perfect life....I WISH! My life is beyond from perfect. Lately i have been worrying about making others happy, rather than myself happy. I try too hard to fit in, and i shouldn't have to try at all. So i made the bold decision to delete my Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter, not forever, but until i find my happiness. On Snapchat, i constantly see groups of friends together having fun, and myself not being invited i tend to get jealous and wonder why i wasn't invited? This semester has been a lot of me asking what people are up-to, and then they ...

First Week Jitters

Im a big girl now. I am attending my first University, Southern Utah University, i have a career picked out, Event Planning, and i feel like everything is slowly falling into place. Being a transfer from Snow College, this place is bigger, has more people, and has endless adventures to embark on. I want to tell you guys about my first week of school, because its been AMAZING! 1. I have met SO MANY people! The girls I room with, Jennee Moore, and Julia Rainey, are widely known  here, so everyday we always have someone new over that i am meeting, and being the shy person i am, they have brought they shy out of me! 2. We have parties on the daily, called "9 @ 9" which is you come over to our apartment (#9) at 9 in the evening, and Julia has a party rocker speaker that illuminates lights all over our porch, and people will just come over and hang with us! When its raining, we move the party inside, and its a great way to meet a lot of people! Our porch is called "The P...

I Hate You, I Love You, SUU

So I tried uploading a blog awhile ago about my first 2 weeks of being here at Southern Utah University, but for the life of me, it wouldn't load! So here i am today to try again and tell you about my first 2 MONTHS here at SUU! To get the bad out of the way, I hate SUU! Classes are hard, social life is hard, family is far away, and i don't have my moms cooking.... I am currently in some Pre-Requisite classes, and some legit classes for my major. My major is in Hotel Resort & Hospitality Management, and hope to become an Event Planner, don't know the area yet specifically! I am in an accounting class, which is kicking me in the booty! I thought it was going to be fun and easy, but its not as fun and easy as i thought learning about credits and debits ect.... My nutrition class is going well and i realize my nutrition is kind of down hill... that class makes me feel bad about my food choices... I love my hotel hospitality class, because we go on many trips to different...

Work & Beauty

I'm self conscious. I want to look good all the time. Im not always pretty. I want to be liked. I want to fit in. I never want to be alone. These are all things that cross my mind. I'm self conscious because i feel like i am being constantly judged by other girls. I want to look good all the time because whenever i wear lounge clothes with my hair up and no make up, one of my friends always shows up looking 100x better than me. I tell myself I'm not always pretty, because people at college would tell me i have "Asian eyes" when i don't wear mascara, or that i look tired. "Are you ok?" YES I AM OK! I want to be liked....who doesn't?? I want to fit in because again...who doesn't! I am about to go to my first University, and am scared i won't fit in because i am way shy at first.. so that doesn't help... That goes along with i never want to be alone... its just a sucky feeling.. some nights i want to turn to someo...

Snow College Has My Heart

Image
WARNING: SAPPY POST AHEAD! Ok guys, Snow College has my heart! First, people always ask me "Why Snow College?" When i tell them I'm from Washington State, and here is my reason: I didn't want to go to college, i wanted to go to beauty school and become a Cosmetologist, and was 90% set on Paul Mitchell Provo, and even went a toured there and filled out the paperwork! I even went and toured Snow College Richfield Campus, and that campus just didn't feel like home to me. My mom told me i should look elsewhere because i would only be cutting farmers hair! HA..NO! So as we toured Ephraim campus, i felt something special. This was a small school, small class sizes, and Jennee Moore gave me a tour that changed my life! I knew that this was the school for me, and i only applied to Snow College, and not even schools in WA! Crazy.. i know! I didn't even know what to major in... i knew something business related, but Snow College was a great start to figure out what...
