idaho is lovely. i have class everyday at 7:45. but most days i have to be there early, which means like 7:15.. sometimes 7. its usually dark. pretty though.
i'm taking a class called IBC (Integrated Business Core) which is where we have two classes each day, with all of the same people. We have four teachers that switch off their subjects which are Finance, Organizational Behavior, Marketing, and Supply Chain. In this class we start up a company on campus and run it throughout the semester. Before deciding what to sell we took a trip to Badger Creek. Its a beautiful piece of land right between Driggs and Tetonia, that BYU-Idaho owns. I don't really mind camping.. but don't really like camping when its 20 degrees at night. It was just a little bit chily. We had a lot of fun though and definitely connected as a company! we were able to climb the power pole, the giant swing, the incline pole, and participate in other team building activities.
(this is the power pole.. pretty legit.. you climb to the top.. then jump off)
my favorite was the giant swing... everyone holds you on this rope and you have this twisty tie rope that you hold onto up at the top. When you let go of that rope you are gone. so cool. of course i screamed... it seemed like the thing to do. :)
At Badger Creek we presented our ideas to our company and then decided to sell jewelry and ties. Our company is called "Tie the Knot." cliche and cheesy. yes. and we love it. Our first day we sold $850 worth of merchandise, which is amazing! There are four other companies running, which have already been open for a week and have barely sold $200. we were pretty excited.
(this is our booth.. two of the guys from our company are sporting our cool "tie the knot" shirts.. classy.. well kind of. )
it is so fun having cody up here. i stop by randomly.. and he stops by randomly.. its really nice having a brother here. He has awesome roommates, that are all freshman as well. He has been having a blast! one day they took me to twizzleberry (our version of yogurtland.. or fro yo.. or whatever place you want to insert) love them.
By the way... take your bets! the papers are in.
well this is pretty much my life. its a lot of fun, just a little bit busy which is good. we miss you all.. so much! and can't wait to see you at thanksgiving! love you all!
P.s. HELLO HELLO HELLO! keep livin'. love cody.
