Moving to St. George :)

So as I mentioned in my previous post my family decided to move to St. George. I would have simply added this to the old post but I think its slightly more overwhelming if the ginormous post is separated into a few large posts.
          Small side track- I think the reason I can't spell very well is because I pronounce words incorrectly, so its kind of like I am spelling correctly but everyone else just has a different way of saying the word and therefore would have a completely different way of spelling it. I hope that is an acceptable excuse for me struggling with words that should be easy. Luckily with spell check it may seem like I am exaggerating my inability to spell (which I might be) so unless you text me, since my phone doesn't have spell check, you wouldn't really ever know. So that works very well in my favor.
            So back on track,( and this is just my understanding of the situation, I am just happy to be here to be perfectly honest) so my dad decided to go on a sabbatical which I guess somehow allows him to work on a book about accounting which he could sell for potentially a lot of money if he promotes/advertises it well. So this allows him to work online and leave Hawaii (should he chose to) because all he needs to work is the internet. (Which was actually doing quite terrible here in St. George for a month, then I spent a lot of money, which I would need for next semester for school, and bought myself a laptop. It turns out I bought the exact same type as my moms- which makes sense because its a great computer that I had been using so I was used to it so probably liked it in the store because it was familiar. Anyways so the internet still didn't work so we called in the internet technicians to fix the internet and it turns out that the previous tech guy did it wrong (installed the modem incorrectly)! Anyways it works now so I am very grateful. My dad was the one who told me to call the technicians so I'm very grateful for his advice.
           So my parents chose to buy a house in St. George to be close to my Grandmother (dad's mom) and being on the mainland is very beneficial to me so that I can come home on holidays (hopefully) and also if I meet someone in Idaho that I think I'd want to be with forever then st George is not too far away and they could visit me if they were dying to. Same thing applies to if I meet someone in St. George (which means that if I was in Hawaii and met someone it would be rather tragic because I would be graduating at BYU-Idaho and probably not see them for a year (when I start doing student teaching) I hope you keep in mind this is all for the future, meaning I want to be at least 20 before I am engaged, which is about 13 months away. Anyways so my family bought this house (which is cheaper then renting) and decided to live here a year and a half ( I was so absolutely excited, and still love the decision) but that means I won't return to Hawaii for two years which is difficult to stay away from my close friends for that long, mainly Christina Hubner, Jennifer Salts, Chris Duke and Luis Espinoza who are still in Hawaii. Most of my other friends went to other schools such as provo or California (I should know the exact school that Brittany Gutierrez went to but I'm not sure, I really should do better at staying in touch. Like my room mate from BYU-Idaho and I have a skype date every sunday at 4pm which is great (angelica Perez) and so we are keeping in contact. It would be nice to start skyping more with other people and people from Rexburg as well like Katherine Martin ( I like to put full names so that maybe in the far future I will read this and search them up to stay in contact) I guess now with facebook it is easier to stay in contact. Hmmm I haven't written much (compared to how much I need to write but I probably will have to go to church soon). Today is my wonderful mothers birthday, Olive Teresa Kimball, so the kids and I planned decorations for her (maybe I will post a picture) and then Sheridan and I woke up early to decorate.
