Festival of Colors: Kind of a Big Deal

Hare Krishna! It seemed like everyone was in Spanish Fork last Saturday at the Krishna Temple to be apart of the Holi Fest, or Festival of Colors. The idea is simple: throw colored chalk at everyone you see. Apparently it's a Hindu celebration to welcome the arrival of Spring, and its really caught on here in Utah. This was my second year going, and I plan to go every year that I can. Morgan and I went with Rochelle and Olivia from our ward. This year, they did a chalk throwing every two hours. When everyone threw their chalk all at once, there was just this massive colorful cloud all around us! It was pretty crazy. I hope I never miss this event while I'm up here. I really look forward to it every year!

First Post in 6 Months!

Sadly, college and blogging don't seem to work together that well. In the six months that I've been at BYU this year, I've only made two posts on here! I guess that's just how it goes. All is not lost though; I have been keeping a pretty updated journal while I've been here. But this post is my attempt to start, yet again, on the task of keeping a blog.
