ok, ok....zach & i

so i have been getting some grief from a few of you about why i haven't mentioned zach more. well...first off...i haven't had much time to get online with work & school. secondly, when i have had time, my internet hasn't been working. my landlords say that it should be all fixed now...we shall see. anyway. today is sunday & i have time to catch you all up on the happenings in my life. i shall start with 2 weeks ago. the week went fairly quickly with work & school. zach came up to salt lake to see me wednesday & we had a lunch/dinner date. we had sandwiches in the park. and saturday was the super service activity. zach came up and we helped paint the railings around the church. other people were doing other things around the building & more deep cleaning the interior. it was a lot of fun. i am sure most people were amazed that i actually had a huge smile on my face. (i don't really talk to or know many people in my ward so i don't really break out into my usual self.) anyways, it was a lot of fun. it was really a fun weekend.

now onto this past week. school has been going fairly well. i feel behind though. class is only 3 &1/2 hours long monday-thursday. each night is a different class, and each week the classes change up a bit. we only get to see & hear things once, and that makes it a bit difficult to remember & then use later in class. i am excited for our tables to come in. i ordered the forest green table. not that it matters because the table will be covered with sheets, but on occasion, when it is a quick massage (like rodeos) where the clients stay robed. on wednesday, zach came up to salt lake again. we had another lunch/dinner date. this time we had sushi in the park. it was really good. zach got a salmon roll something, and i got a crab roll something.

then this weekend i went down to springville and zach and i went hiking. we hiked squaw peak. it was hard, and my gluteus maximus is extremely sore. the entire hike took us about 4 hours round trip. the view of utah lake was quite pretty. posted below are pictures. so all in all...zach & i are dating. we are going good places. i really like him a lot, and he really likes me. we are extremely happy and excited to see where the possibilities of an us will take us. i am putting a disclaimer here....we had just hiked 2 and a half hours....so please excuse the sweaty red face of mine. thanks ;)
