Hello blogging world!

I never thought this day would come...but here I am setting up my very own blog. In my mind, I have a pretty great life - so I figured it was important to document it. A huge part of what makes me happy are the little things that happen in life (hence, the blog name). So here it goes. Welcome to the journey of my simple joys.

At this point in my life I am a junior at Utah State University majoring in Public Relations. What do I want to do with this? I have no idea. But that's part of the ride, right? I am very involved at USU and really do love it - even though it's hectic 98% of the time. Currently, I live in a house comprised of 10 girls. Yes, ten. The house is rightfully named the Shewolf house. *cue wolves howling* These girls are incredible and I can't wait to share my final year of school with them.

Alright. Let's get down to the nitty gritties. Since this is a blog about happiness, I just want to be clear about the little things that fill me with joy and make me completely happy.

• A handful of Guittard semi-sweet chocolate chips. I've conducted multiple taste tests - so trust me when I say those are the best. I'm a complete addict.
• My electric blanket. Yes, I was completely anti-social last semester. What of it? 
• Grey's Anatomy (to go along with my electric blanket of course).
• A clean room
• A full tank of gas
• Cafe Rio
• "..." Yes, I really do love ellipsis. I use them all the time, but I'm trying to stop because apparently it's not grammatically correct. 
• Songs you can belt the lyrics to
• Road Trips
• Hiking (Let's get real- I love basically anything that has to do with being outside)
• A great outfit
• Red Lipstick

The list could obviously go on and on...but I will stop there.

Here's to my final year of college and my last, first day of school!
