Mike & Jennie: New Beginnings

"We Became Friends" If you haven't heard about Mike's AMAZING project then you are a little behind the times! For Mikes BFA project he decided to create this interactive exhibit in which students at BYU-Idaho are able to use this ice-breaker and become friends with a stranger. This emphasizes the fact that the potential to become someone's friends is there, you may just need the right ice breaker:) This took Mike A TON of work, time, and dedication to make this a success. There were many frustrating nights but he succeeded BIG time. Thanks to all the support from our parents and friends. There is no way we he could have done this without you!

Mike displayed his exhibit at the MC on campus. Check out his video!

For Mikes BFA show he made a smaller model. He entered this into a creative research conference where many types of academic disciplines entered their finest work for the semester. I am proud to say that Mike got first place in the Graphic Design department!

GRADUATION!!!

Mike and I graduated on April 6, 2012. Mike graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design, and I graduated with a Bachelor of Health Science - emphasis in community and worksite wellness and Medical Assisting Minor. We never thought this day would come-seriously. Now we know there is more to life than just college. We are really excited for our new life to start. I am sure we will find our way back to school again...but for now we are taking a break!

Mike and I decided have our convocation in Mike's Department (College of Performing and visual arts). I won't lie it was weird not graduating in my department. But I was just glad that we could see each other officially graduate. I know in my department I would not have had seen dance performances and singing chickens;)

Proudly holding our official...diploma covers:)

While we were going to convocation we cut through the Clarke building. This is the building I have lived in through all my schooling (having about 80% of my classes in here). I was happy to see that my poster was chosen to represent a research project I was a part of. We researched glycemic index and its relationship to certain meal replacements.
