Are you a true Aggie?


If you are a true Aggie I have a new found respect for you. Only the chosen few can claim this honor and I'm proud to say that I got to spend the day with a few of Logan's finest, last Saturday. About 10 or so years ago, I found myself in a new town, living on the 4th floor of a Utah State University dorm. Five other girls shared this humble aboad with me and who would have thought we'd be laughing about all of our adventures and heartbrakes a decade later. Amy Duke and Ang Perry were my partners in crime our freshmen year, then Leslie Smith joined the pack our junior year. We had the time of our lives and even got to witness the beginning flirtations and courtship of LeAnn and Dyllon, only later to witness wedding rings and now, 3 1/2 kids to their credit. The two and one half years that I spent at USU were priceless, but as I pondered last week upon that time in my life, I was glad to know that I'd survived it and was where I needed and wanted to be in my life right now.

The reunion with Ang, Amy, LeAnn, and Leslie was refreshing and endearing. The Blue Bird Cafe still has the best chicken. The Cache Valley still calls to me. And my roomies are wonderful examples to me as to what life is really about and how each one of us can pull through any ugly crisis that presents itself and tell it to "Go to Hell," as Amy would say!

Go Aggies!!
