The First Day

Well this is me and my first post. My name is Kara Nielson, and I'm a senior in high school. I'm on the school dance company, and considering cross country again. I am on track to earn my Associate's Degree by the time I graduate, which has been a pain because AP classes as well as classes on the university campus have never really processed in my brain. Outside of school, I have a family of 9 siblings, 5 of which are adopted. I am addicted to the TV show "Bones", which I only discovered a month ago. I have a major fear of the dark, and spider are probably the nastiest creatures on this planet. I am working for my dad as a field assistant for his archeology business, saving the money for my trip the Europe with UAM (Utah Ambassadors of Music) in July. Well, that's all for now!

A Little Bit of Food

Oh my goodness it's been forever! Life has been so crazy. I graduated high school with my Associates, and I'm now halfway done with my Bachelors in Communications.
I must've shown some natural talent when I took a ballroom class fall semester, so my teacher asked me to join the team, even though I didn't try out.
I am almost engaged! He bought my ring! I am so excited I can't see straight.
Anyways...enough about my boring life. Let's get to the point.
One of my communication classes require a blog, so I started another blog. I decided that I would base it a problem all students face: wanting to eat great food but being too broke to buy the ingredients. If you'd like to check it out, the url is www.cookingbrokestudentstyle.blogspot.com. These are some of my delicious posts (and posts to come)!
