Well kids, I don't even know where to start. April has been quite the month in the world of Brittney to say the least. Spring semester here at Utah State is winding down and I have just a hand full of last strings to tie.
This semester I have met some of the coolest kids in the U.S. I'm pretty sure of that. I would never have passed my Technical Writing class without the assistance of the amazing Seth Graves, and Linguistics may have driven me cukoo-bananas without the fantastic Cody Titmus. Jessica Cook was always willing to chat and comfort me when I was just a-freakin out. Alex Maughan and Virinia Smith were also among the coolest kids on campus as far as I'm concerned.
As far as life apart from schoolwork went, my room mates could only have been cooler if one had owned a private night club and a private jet to take us there every night. Tiffany Davis and I are really in the same brainwave and have all sorts of inside jokes and understandings. Christine Koloveas was definitly good for an intertaining quote to add to the quote wall, and a good dancing buddy. Megan Garry is umong the gunuinely nicest people I know.
I WILL MISS MY ROOMIES!
As far as life after spring semester goes. I'm headed to Oregon in less than 30 days! I don't have my flight date yet, which is driving me nuts. I want to know exactly when I go! I hope that the other interns are cool, because it so happens I'll be stuck with them for over three months.
A lot has happened in my personal life too...But nI don't know if the world is ready to hear those details just yet!

An interesting week
Yesterday was Wednesday. Even with four classes and seven hours of work, it still managed to be a good day. I guess I should rewind about a month for so first to catch you up.
So about a month ago I applied for a few Environmental Internships throughout the country. Though I am hardly qualified for any, I figured it couldn't hurt to at least get my name out there to some of these employers so they would consider me a bit farther down the road in my education.
Yesterday at about 4:00, I got a call from the Internship at Mt. Hood, at the border of Oregon and Washington State. They informed me that they had chosen me for a position. So to my suprise, I'm headed to Oregon! Brittney Ann, let loose in the National forest for four months, this could get interesting......
I of course informed Christine and Tiffany right away and when I got home from work, they had suprised me with a celebration they knew I'd appreciate. BACON!
After we ate our bacon, we spent the rest of the night dying Tiffany's hair. None of us really knew what we were doing, but we hoped that turning that redish hair a nice chocolatey brown would be a success. Fortunately it worked and she looks great!
Tuesday night after I got off work, my room mates and I got a little hyper and decided to go on a late night Wal-Mart run. If you're like me, late night is the only time to go to Wal-Mart because everywhere else is closed. Anyway, in our excitement (caused by our lack of sleep) we got really excited in the pet department and ended up taking home half a dozen fun, finned friends. None have died so far I must add!
