People!!!

so, here i am!!! in case all of you were wondering where I went. Have no fear, I was here all along. So quick low down on the life of Julie Call....single, working, and going to school.
I love BYU! It has been quite an experience here so far. It is hard but I think I can handle it.
So I guess I will start with the singleness, yes I am. I have been asked for my number a few times, but it always seems that they never use it. So the next time I am asked for my number I am pretty sure I am just going to say "I'm sorry, I forgot it." or something with that same effect. how do you think that will go over? ha. It has been good to get back in touch with old friends. I didn't realize how the Provo bubble really does affect relationships. I almost never hang out with my friends from Springville (or Idaho, I suppose) anymore. It is really cool to see where everyone is in life now.
Work. I work at the Counseling and Career Center in the Wilk. My department is more specifically the Career Center and Academic Success Center, I am a paraprofessional for one of the counsellors there. Basically I love it! I have even considered changing my major, or double majoring. I would love to be a career counselor or an academic counsellor at a high school. I was looking it up a while back, it is going to be a lot of work. But I think that being a history major was kind of a dead end. I really would like to publish some of my own theories on history. But until I can do that, I think I will look into a counselling job. If you have any suggestions let me know.
School. Well, I kind of covered it in the work section but more specifically. I am in a history of Spain class right now, and it is so awesome. I need to learn some spanish but despite that, this is one of my favorite classes this semester. I am also in two dance classes; dance 260 and dance 180. 260 is the history of dance (which is only interesting because I am a history major, otherwise, I am positive that modern dance is NOT my favorite, but meh who knows maybe I havent been out much). 180 is a social dance, haha and by that I mean I am socializing with kids a foot shorter than me and two years younger than myself. yup AWKWARD! However, it is a really fun class, I am always happy after I leave it because it is not impossible to dance, just challenging. I am also in History 221, oh the bane of my exhistance! I am pretty sure this is a rediculous class, or maybe it is the teacher? anywho next class, I am also in a survey of world religions class, *Doreen, thank you so so so much for your notes, I have no idea what the heck he is saying. yup my teacher is from korea, and I have such a hard time understanding the words coming out of his mouth. Pretty sure if I didnt have Doreen's notes to follow I would not be doing so well....Doreen, is that right? <- inside joke you would have to have him as a teacher to understand. haha I counted 50 'is that right' in just thirty minutes of class. He is still a way cool teacher, very funny, so dont think I am dissing on him.
Yup well that is my life so far. school, work, handing out numbers. I will definately make a better attempt at writing more often to let y'all know what is going on.
Family, I love you all and miss you!
