Cougar Love


Nope, not talking about older women loving on younger men. I'm talking about a fellow BYU cougar completely making my day last week. Friday was a ca-razy day filled with classes, work, a midterm, a few wardrobe changes, very little food and of course a football game. When I had finally finished my day on campus husband came to pick me up with my third change of clothes of the day (dance clothes to work clothes to game clothes). I quickly changed and we swiftly made our way to the stadium, I was SO excited about it being the weekend and was ready to stand and cheer and not think about school/work/etc.

Husband asks me, probably about four times, "you have your ID,right?" Well, I always have my ID so I say "yes, i do!" until we reach the actual stadium and I realize that no, i don't. It was in my backpack...in the car...all the way across and through and around and beneath and over campus. I was pretty done with the day at that point and began to tell poor husband how "done" I was.

I was not about to make that trek, again, to get my ID. If I walked back to the car we were a-goin' home! I continued to be dramatic until the nicest cougar student in the world came up to us explaining that he had a ticket, a normal non-student ticket meaning I didn't need my ID and offered to switch. Immediately I felt ridiculous that someone noticed how upset/dramatic I was but ultimately grateful and took his offer.

The game was back and forth and then back again until the last 11 SECONDS where the cougars got the final touchdown of the game leaving USU in the dust by only 3 points! It was a beautiful game at the beginning of a beautiful weekend and a fellow cougar is to thank.



I am so grateful for just plain nice people. How wonderful to live in a world with people who need no motive to serve!

maybe complaining loudly isn't such a bad idea...


because i am blessed.
