I began my college education at Brigham Young University in Hawaii. Not only was I working on my English degree, I was learning a lot about different cultures (I believe there were 52 countries represented at the school while I was there). I was also learning about what it was like to be a minority, which was new to me and extremely eye opening.
I eventually transferred to Brigham Young University to finish my degree. While there I spent a semester abroad in Israel. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life!

We went to see an erupting volcano on Halloween night. It was awesome! I don't know why the camera made me all fuzzy, but I thought it was a cool effect.
I was not using my brains the day we climbed waterfalls using ropes without safety gear. It was an incredible hike, and I loved it! But I did fall at one point, and ended up having knee surgery because of it. Next time I'll use my brains and use safety equipment!!

Study Abroad in Israel
We began hiking in the early morning to reach the top of Mount Sinai and watch the sunrise. It was breath taking, and freezing! I sat to write a poem about it. It is still one of my favorites.
