My bags are packed, I'm ready to go...

...because I'm leaving on a jet plane; don't know when I'll be back again. Actually, that is a lie. My bags are NOT packed. I am NOT ready to go, but I will be leaving on a jet plane and I do know when I will be back again. The past week, I have slowly been packing up my things so that I will not have to worry about it when I get back Friday afternoon. (I need to put up a picture of my room, it is a disaster area). I have mixed feelings about moving. Mostly good feelings, but I have to admit that I am a little sad to leave the place that I felt so welcome, so comfortable. On the other hand, I have an opportunity to meet a new group of people, and have a fresh start. I am excited to be living in an apartment with just 3 people. No random, immature, dumb roommates who can't do a single thing for themselves (can you sense the dislike?). I couldn't say a bad thing about Caitlin and Robyn, they are so amazing. We are all completely different people, but we mesh so well. How would have thought that I would have the same two roommates all 4 years of college. Very few people can say that. I am so grateful for them.

Also, ERIN IS COMING OUT TO BYU!!!! Woohoooooo!!!!!! It will be so fun to have Erin out here and living nearby. Jon will be really close to us also!

Picture is of Kristen and I looking hard core after a night at the batting cages. Yeah, I hit like one ball out of the 50...and my thumb was sore for the next few days from holding the bat. Wow, I am a wimp!

No longer Pre-Mi's

All the guys from my freshman wards are getting home from their missions. Because I work in the ID center, and a lot of them lost their IDs while on their mission, I get to see many of them. Already today, I have helped two guys that I knew from freshman year. Weird. They all look the same, except, well, older. It is a little awkward to see these guys because I am not sure if they remember me or not, so we just look at each other for a minute with that wondering eye, and then one of us will finally say something like, "Hey, weren't you in my freshman ward? It's (insert name here) right?" "Yeah, its (insert other persons name, right?) and then we have a short conversation getting all caught up on life and such. Their ID finally pops out of the printer and we are both released from the awkward conversation when I say, "If you just sign your name on the back, you will be ready to go." End of awkward conversation. Its fun to see all these guys, but it is a little, no a lot, weird. I am almost done with school, they still have 3 years. And now, they have officially entered the dating world here at BYU. What a wild ride. Haha. Sucks to be them!!!
