Moving and school

Zach and I finally made it back to Provo. We love our new apartment and ward. We were able to move in Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and Zach's brother, sister-in-law and mother drove down from Idaho to help us move in. Thanks Josh, Crystal, and Stacy! It was so nice to have all of the help because we are once again on the third floor. Zach organized everything and cleaned while I was at school on Monday so we are all moved in and organized. We really enjoyed living so close to our families this summer, but it is SO nice to have all of our own things and our own place again.

In addition to moving in, I have also started law school. I started an MPA last fall, and will graduate with a JD/MPA in 2010. That seems like a long time from now, but I am sure the time will FLY by. I have a carrel, which is convenient but also a sign that the school basically expects (and demands) you take up a second residence in the library. I am loving my classes so far and have met a lot of great people in just two short weeks. I am sitting in my carrel right now and should be reading about criminal law, but decided I needed a little break. Zach starts the junior core on Tuesday, so we will be super busy once we are both in school. I know he is excited to get going, as I am sure he has been bored sitting around the house waiting for me to get home from school everyday this week.

I don't know how exciting posts will be for awhile because I will spend most of my time studying; however, I will try to post as many of the random Provo stories I encounter as they come. On that note, I have one. Zach and I were walking downstairs in our apartment building when we stumbled upon an awkward situation. One grown man was lying on his side on the landing of the second floor, with another hudled over him. On closer inspection, we realized that there was a fire over the man on the ground's left ear. (He was laying on his right side.) We walked by and they muttered something about a "science experiment." Likely story, but school has not started anywhere except the law school here. And we don't have science experiments. We think they were trying to drain earwax, but two grown men doing it together? Weird. Zach thinks they are gay and said he had seen some sketchy behavior from the pair of them. I'm not sure. But it was definitely an awkward situation.
