as time flies by...

Well this whole blogging thing is sort of new to me, but I thought I might try it since the whole "write in your journal every night" thing isn't exactly going as planned. And besides, the computer and I have a special bond that might get to me write more often than my journal does....
It is so bizarre that I am already finished with my freshman year at BYU!!!! Honestly, where did the time go?   I really could not tell you. This year has been so magnificent and wonderful and awesome and memorable and spiritual and I could not have picked a more perfect school or found more astounding people to fill my life with. I wish that I had started blogging earlier so that I could have written about all of the amazing experiences I had down at school with these lovely people, but that is what next year is for :)
Being back home in Kirkland, Washington is an interesting feeling. I cant even express how much I missed the lush, green trees that surround our city, the beautiful lake that we are so lucky to live by, the fact that Seattle is just across the bridge, waking up to the sound of rain falling on our roof, the moisture in the air, home cooked meals, shopping trips with mom, and i really could go on forever but I will spare all of you. As much as I love being here with my family and friends, I miss the girls that I became so close with at school! Shout out to mah homies back in P-townnnn (hot like mexico, rejoice) All of these girls really are special individuals and I have learned so much from them and can not wait to be reunited with them!
This summer I have a lot of plans for myself and I can not wait to dive into some of them! Right now, my kitchen and downstairs is being redone but once we finish that whole ordeal I am going to be a chef and learn how to cook delicious meals :) and I want to ride my bike daily and do lots of crafts, and sing a lot and learn to play the piano and soak up the sun and make sure I am exercising and keep a mini moleskin journal of words that I do not know so that I can expand my vocabulary. I really need to expand my vocabulary. Being at Brigham Young University has instilled in me a yearning to take in all of the knowledge that I can while on this earth. I also plan on working full time this summer to save up for school next year. Since when do I have to be an adult and work full time? AH!

Peace and blessings
