People Watching & Blog Posting

So I am sitting here at the SLC airport (on the floor actually) and I am waiting to go home. It will only be a short trip but I am still excited. I have just finished a bunch of homework, and while I still have some to do, I would rather just write this...and people watch. Because the cute little old lady sitting in front of me is hilarious.
One thing I have decided is that I have 2 homes. And that was kind of a funny thing to think about at first. But as my mind often does, it analyzes everything, and the conclusion is whether I am leaving Texas or leaving Logan, I am going home. And how blessed am I that I have two places that completely embrace and accept me. In Texas I have parents and siblings that I love with my whole heart! I have a puppy dog (one who is getting old but will always be a puppy to me!) and the house I grew up in. In Logan I have my own space to discover who I am and what I want to be when I grow up! I have a University full of people who are kind just because I am a fellow Aggie, and some of the best friends (who are like family) who not only do I adore but I would do anything for!
So while I am sitting here waiting to board a plane that will take me across the country, I know that I woke up this morning and will fall asleep at home.

I Resolve To Continue

This is the time of year when we evaluate our lives. We look at the last 364 days and ponder on our struggles and our triumphs. We look at the person we have become over the last 12 months and we plan to do better in the coming 12. This is the time of year we are dedicated to making a change, and as I sit here thinking back to this time exactly 365 days ago, I am astounded at how far I have come. Almost ashamed of the person I was then and truly proud of the person I am now. For one of the first times in my life I can say that I can see myself becoming the person I want to become. In the last year I have felt sorrow and defeat and loneliness. I have faced struggles and heartache and frustrations. But I have also felt peace. I have felt joy and happiness and love. I set goals and I achieved them. I have had experiences that have taught me so many valuable lessons, and I have met people who have changed me forever. And I am so grateful. And so as we finish out this awfully beautiful year...

How True This Is

Why I Drove to Washington By Myself

Okay first things first....I went to WA to see my friend Liz. Look how cute she is! She got a grown up job and moved to the *cutest* little town in WA and I miss her, so I took a few days for myself and went on a trip to see her. Secondly, I want it to be known that I DID invite a friend to come with me. I have a good friend who I would have loved to have join me on the trip, but when he couldn't come I was sad but didn't bat an eye. Here are the reasons that I invited him: He is excellent company. He has a great taste in music. He is friends with Liz as well. I thought it would be fun if he came. The end that is all. I didn't invite him to make the trip cheaper, to help drive, or to make me feel safer. It would have been fun if he could have come, but either way I was going to go. I drove to Washington by myself because I could. Because I am saying YES. Because I am done waiting for "someday". Someday when I have more money, or...
