Hot Tub!

One late evening, me and some friends were thinking that finals were beginning to stress us out. We were more down than we usually were and wanted to do something to cheer us up, or make us feel better. We came up with the novel idea of going hot tubbing! There are many hot tubs throughout Utah State housing, along with swimming pools. We went to Legacy and met up with some friends that lived there. It was SO much fun!! Afterward, we felt so much better and less stressed :)! 


The hot tub was nice and spacious!

Adding a Little Something :)

It's time to get into the Christmas spirit! Me and my roommates decided that we were going to add some bedaz to our dorm room. We brought a lot of things from our houses and put everything up. We brought Christmas lights, a cute little tree, ornaments, candy canes, candles, and of course mistletoe. It was SO much fun to dec the place out!! We listened to Christmas music as we put everything up. I am so excited for Christmas and it was great to decorate our place according the holiday season. It feels a lot more at home and comfortable. Since we all brought different things, the room has a little piece of each of us. I love looking at the place and feeling happy. I advise anyone reading this that is going to be going to college, already in college, or just want a good idea, to add personality to where you are living. It honestly puts you in a better mood and makes you feel more at home. Being yourself and showing that is so awesome because you are able to stand out and others can see a little piece of what you like and what your style is. It's fun!! There are so many different things that you can do to make your place YOU and have it how YOU like it :)! If your living there you might as well make the best out of EVERYTHING!! 


Wrapping the lights on the tree!



So Happy!!



Working on it :)



Oh how fun!



Oh Christmas tree Oh Christmas tree

Lunch at Cafe Sabor

Delicious!!!! I went to lunch with my good friend and it was SO much fun! We went to Cafe Sabor and the food was tasty! It's Mexican food, which is my favorite. The people that work there are super kind and considerate to your needs. We walked in and the customer service happily greeted us. We had an awesome booth inside where our waiter gave us chips and salsa to munch on while we were looking at the menu to decide what to get. I decided to get the chicken quesadillas, and my friend, Shelby, decided to get the supreme burrito! The wait wasn't long at all which was nice because it's never fun waiting for your food forever. 


This is the place to go to!



Two choices of salsa!



Looks pretty supreme to me :)



YUM!!!!


We had a great time, and that won't be the last time that I go to Cafe Sabor :)! If you like Mexican food this is the place for you!!

Aggie Basketball!

THE SPECTRUM is so much fun to be in, especially during basketball season. The crowd comes Alive!!!! I have never been to a basketball game with so much energy. The students especially are yelling the WHOLE entire time. IT"S INSANE!!!!!! I love it! The atmosphere is unreal. I have always been told that you don't mess with Aggie fans. I didn't really think much of it until going to the basketball game and then I knew why people made such a big deal about it. Aggie fans are so loyal to their school, future Aggies, and past and current Aggies! 


Go Aggies!

My new favorite thing about Utah State University is now the basketball games! The funny thing is I will probably have a new favorite in the next couple of days because Utah State is the place to be. There are so many things to do, try, eat, etc! It's amazing. 


Getting a good seat early :)

I have never heard a basketball game that was so loud before until going to and being part of the Aggie basketball experience. We are always chanting something, cheering at the top of our lungs, and having the time of our lives. I mean.....WE GET INTO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everybody wears Aggie attire and it's not just the students that go crazy and get into the games. The WHOLE entire crowd is Crazy!




This is what the Spectrum looked like a half hour before the game!

Some people camp out the night before to get a good spot or get to the Spectrum hours and hours before the game. We are dedicated fans :)!

Check this video out! This is just a taste of what happens in the Spectrum :)!


Go Aggies!!!!!!!!!

Trying something new...again!

FOR FREE??!! The other night, some friends and I went miniature golfing at this place just off main street in Logan! We went around nine at night so it was dark outside. The golf course is kind of run down, which made the experience that much better because it was more of a challenge to try to get the golf ball in the hole. Also.....it's FREE all day everyday! At least that's what people tell me ha. On the course there were leaves that covered the ground because of the many trees present. At times we had to move some of the leaves with our feet because we couldn't tell where the hole was at times. The miniature golf course is a little behind and between two fast food restaurants. So if you are looking for a great idea for the night, that's cheap, go get something to eat at one of the two places and then top off the night with miniature golfing which is right next door! 



They look so happy to be golfing :)


There was four of us, so we split into teams and played against one another, taking individual scores. I was dragging at the beginning and wasn't doing very well but then....I stepped up my game and was killing it!!!!!!! Ya, well that didn't last so long. I ended up losing by two points. Jeez Louise! Oh well, I'll take them next time, don't you worry :) 




This was the hole that I sadly started losing at


Since it was dark though, in the middle of a few trees, and behind a parking lot, I had a few adrenaline rushes haha. The mood and situation keeps you on your toes if you go later in the evening when it is dark and in the fall. It was GREAT!! 




Overall, it was an exciting night!


After I barely lost, we went to Hastings to get some hot chocolate. I can't remember the exact title of the drink I got, but it was DELICIOUS!! So if you ever want to branch out of your comfort zone of always getting the same thing, go to Hastings and ask for the drink that has pumpkin, cinnamon, cream and other tasty ingredients and the people taking your order will know what you are talking about :) I was hesitant about getting a pumpkin type of drink, because I usually don't like that, but WOW!! Give it a try!

Have a wonderful day :)!!

Voting up at college!

I CAN VOTE!! Talk about exciting! I registered to vote a while ago and I got some information about it in the mail. I have been watching the presidential debates, and have kept myself updated with what has been going on in the world around me. I finally received my ballot in the mail up at Utah State! I finished filling out the ballot, sealed the envelope and put it in the mail to be sent!! Ha it was great! So DON"T WAIT and VOTE! I am SO proud to be an American :) 



Filling out my ballot in my dorm!

Check out this video of the national anthem being sung at the spectrum at Utah State University!

Cleaning the Sink :)

A SINK? That's what I said when I heard about cleaning the sink at Angie's! Do people actually go to the restaurant Angie's and eat ice cream that's piled into a sink?? You better believe it!! Some friends and I went the other night and had a BLAST :)! We went on a night when all of us were craving ice cream. I went with a group of six people so that we could finish the ice cream! If you eat all of the ice cream in the sink than you get an awesome bumper sticker saying that you cleaned the sink at Angie's!

We drove to Angie's and walked through the door, waiting to be seated. We sat in a booth in the corner of the restaurant. I love booths...I really do. Our server for the night got a big smile on her face when we said we wanted to clean the sink. We got to pick THREE toppings to go on top of the ice cream!! Not one..not two..but THREE!!!!! There was no hesitation before we said chocolate, caramel, and Oroes :) :) Those are only the best flavors in the world, so it wasn't hard to come to an agreement.




Yum...Yum...Yum


When our server brought out the sink all of our eyes went big. There was even a cute cherry on the top! It's cute, but I think that the cherries are disgusting so I had my friend eat the cherry. We all grabbed a spoon and went at it!! We paced ourselves though, which is important if you ever go to clean the sink. Bite by bite the ice cream was getting smaller and smaller. Towards the end we started to question ourselves on whether or not we could finish it....but that feeling went away real quickly when Lexie took the last bite!!




Slowly but surely!!

We did it!!!!!!!!!!!!! They awarded us with our bumper sticker, and we were on our way feeling very accomplished :)




What a beautiful bumper sticker!




awesome eating crew :)

Chalk Dance!!

Talk about colorful! I went to the chalk dance last night with friends and it was SO much fun!! The DJ was fantastic and played a lot of great music. There were SOOO many people there, it was CRAZY! Everybody had there hands up, jumping up and down and were dancing their hearts out haha. It started at seven in the evening and went to eleven at night. We dressed in older clothes because the chalk stained your clothes to an extent. I wore a white t-shirt and an old pair of jeans and afterward my clothes looked awesome! The chalk made a cool fading design on my shirt.




Oh Ya!!




Too much fun!!


Everybody looked like walking rainbows after the chalk was thrown!! There were numerous countdowns where everybody with little bags of chalk powder would throw the chalk into the air! When the chalk came down and landed on you it felt like it was raining. It felt wet!! I didn't expect that, but it was saweet!! 




So Stinkin Colorful :)



What better than going to a chalk party with friends!


There were people crowd surfing right and left. Someone asked me if I wanted to do it, and I politely said, "No thanks!" haha I will have to work up to that. I had to be careful though because there were numerous times where I would get COMPLETELY stuck in the middle and towards the front! The dance was crammed with people. I would try to shuffle out, but it took FOREVER at times. I lost both of my shoes while being stuck in the middle of the dance crowd. I know I know...how in the world do you lose both shoes?? Well....somehow I managed. That's alright though, they were old shoes anyway :)! I had a great time!!

Second Dam

BBBbbbbbrrrrrr!!!!! I went to Second Dam today with a good friend of mine and it was a blast!!!! We weren't planning to jump in though, but..........WE DID, fully clothed :) It was SO cold! I made my friend jump in first and when he did he was saying that the water felt great. I asked him why he was swimming back to shore really fast then. Cameron replied by saying that he wanted to jump in again...haha YA RIGHT! Of course I believed him though and jumped in. I jumped really high into the air and as soon as I hit the water I could feel my skin literally turn BLUE. Sheesh! I couldn't even breathe! Cameron thought that was pretty funny. I never got out of the water so fast. Even though it was a bit chilly, I would do it again in a heart beat! It was great.



We were SOAKED, but had SO much fun :)

After we got out of the water it felt so nice, it was just pleasant..probably because we were numb. We walked for a while on the trails that were on both sides of the dam. The pathways were BEAUTIFUL!!! There were cool bridges that arched a little bit over the water. When we walked on the trail that hugged the mountain, the trees arched over the trail so it looked like we were walking through a tunnel! The water was so clear and clean that I felt like if I ever got stranded by this dam, I could drink the water and be completely fine. You could see fish swimming around as well! Don't worry, I only saw cute little ones. It was also awesome to see the bottom of the dam, there was marsh that ran across the bottom with random boulders in the water.




Something off a postcard right?

Everywhere we looked there were colorful leaves! RED...YELLOW..GREEN...ORANGE..OH MAN!!!!! I love the fall :) If any of you are bored, make it a priority to go to the different dams in Logan! 



OOoohh...AAaahhh :)

It was too good! I hope whoever reads this has a WONDERFUL day!
Oh ya before I forget, I received an email the other day that just made my day :) I hope it makes yours too! Click on the link below!

USU Aggie Soccer Game

Dribble...Pass...Kick....GOAL!!!! I went to the soccer game with a good friend of mine, and it was SO much fun! The weather was incredible, and we were sitting in the perfect spot where the sun wasn't shining in our faces. It was a good turn out. A lot of people (Aggie fans) showed up to support the USU soccer team.



Just some of the crowd :)

Watching the game was GREAT because the girls on the team were GO GO GO. They never stopped running and stealing the soccer ball! Incredible. You would have to be in amazing shape to do what they do out on the field. Goodness gracious!



Ha..three Washington on one Aggie..we're too good.


I love when people, including the team, get into the game. It makes everything more fun. USU was playing Washington. Their crowd didn't match up to our crowd AT ALL!! NO ONE MESSES WITH AGGIES!!!!!!!!! When their crowd would say a smart Alec comment about our team or even about the referees, our crowd was right there to jump in and say something better :) Man, what a good school. It gets pretty intense sometimes...full of action!! At the end of the game, we ended up tying with Washington after double overtime. It was close!



Heck Ya!

I found this awesome video so CHECK IT OUT. Click on the link below. I'm sure this is how USU warms up before all their games ;)

Insane Soccer Stunts

Bear Lake Baby!

What in the world!! Today I just spent the day at Bear Lake and it was......AWESOME!!!! Some friends and I went swimming, hung out at a cabin, ate a famous raspberry shake, and just had the time of our lives :) I have only been to Bear Lake twice in my life, so today was a cool experience for me. The color of the water is beautiful!


Blue Blue Water

Honestly though one of my favorite parts of going to Bear Lake was the drive there and back. It's almost fall and the leaves are already turning different colors. It was so pretty! There were some points during the drive that the trees would come up from both sides of the road and made what was like a tunnel made out of trees. It was SWEET! There were rolling mountains on both sides of the road as well with an awesome river winding around the base of the mountains. The next thing I want to do is ride down the river here I just decided. Ya..I'm pretty EXCITED :)



I had to take a picture of the beautiful mountains :)


The scenery pictures don't do the actual thing justice...just saying you need to go to get the real experience!


What goofs right? :)


I saw this really cool bike and want to ride one someday :)!


Cute Stuff!


Hanging out at the beach!


Getting ready to swim!

I had a lot of fun with my friends and I will definitely have to go there again. The water was kind of chilly, but all worth it :) When I do go back though, instead of getting the raspberry shake I am going to get a chocolate caramel oreo shake. I think the reason why I am mentioning food right now is because I am a bit hungry haha. Anyway, I had a blast today to say the least.

GO AGGIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aggie Football!!

OH MY GOSH!!! I went to my first Utah State football game last night and it was GREAT! We killed the other team...too bad. We played Southern Utah University. Our fans were insane! We were loud the whole entire time, constantly over filled with Aggie spirit. Aggie blue was everywhere in sight. It's so fun to be able to say that I am apart of the crazy awesome Aggie fans :)
Look at that good lookin field!!


I went with a few of my friends, but met up with a ton more at the game. People are so friendly at Utah State, and it is Very easy to meet people and make friends. I stood in the student section which was INCREDIBLE because I got to be apart of the whole Aggie football experience!

At an awesome Aggie football game with awesome people :)! haha my friend on the right was a little more interested in watching the game instead of taking the picture, which is totally understandable :)

The game is that much more fun with a best friend :)


Party hard girls!

Everything here in Logan is still pretty new to me, so I have found out that I am extremely excited about pretty much everything I do here haha :) There honestly is something going on ALL the time!! It's CRAZY, I love it! The option of being bored gets thrown out the window REAL fast. There are options Galore!

After the football game, some friends and I went and got some Aggie ice cream which was DELICIOUS!!! Yum Yum Yummy :) I got Aggie Blue Mint, and one of my friends got cake batter which looked goo as well, so I will have to try that next time. Ice cream back in Farmington costs about five dollars for regular sized ice cream, but........................Aggie Ice Cream is only about TWO TWENTY FIVE!!!! What a stealin deal.

Goodness, so all in all it was a Wonderful night last night :)

Here's a video I found that I enjoyed and I hope you do too :)! Watch it!

College at Utah State :)

Hey! I'm Kambria Johnson and am SOOO excited to start my college experience and to be apart of MyFriends! All summer I have been anxious, and preparing for this year, but also been having a fantastic summer. In fact, a week ago i got my wisdom teeth out and guess how many I had??? Ha FIVE! Ya, I couldn't believe it either....don't worry I survived :)

 So just this week I finished moving into Snow Hall! I can't believe college is already here, it's CRAZY!!!! My roomates are awesome and so nice. I moved in knowing three of the five girls beforehand, and just met the other two yesterday. We are so different but so alike. We balance each out very well :)



I have the best roommates!

To tell you the truth this whole summer I have been dying to move to Logan and go to USU, but on the drive  here I got so nervous. All of a sudden, I wanted to go home for just a few more days, to procrastinate coming here. JEEZ LOUISE!!!! Once, I moved everything into my dorm room and went around campus with some friends I fell in love! This place is great. There is ALWAYS something going on!! Everyone around you is in the same boat and wants to have fun and meet people, so it's very easy to make friends :)



I am extremely EXCITED for this upcoming year!
