Wishing For...

Honestly, I wish it would rain more, here in Rexburg. Call me crazy but I love when it rains. There is something about the way it makes the world look. Not only does it make it smell fresh but the feeling of the world after it rains is most lovely too. All the colours and smells deepen and reverberate a clean slate of possibility and new-found hope for the world.

A Week Long Break

Tomorrow I am flying down to Santa Ana, California and I am rather excited. School, homework, mission preparation, drama, etc has just kind of worn me down with so much stress that I am quite eager to have S.I.X. W.H.O.L.E. D.A.YS. to just relax and not have to worry about a single thing!

I'm just jealous that the rest of my family was able to fly out two days before me, those lucky ducks! I am ecstatic to see my family. With everything that has gone on this semester, it has made me realize more and more how important they are to me. They are my support and my playmates. I feel that since I have started college and now with me leaving in 43 days for my LDS Mission, that I have had this realization of wanting to spend as much time with my family as I can. This trip, to say the least, is greatly needed and I can't wait to tell you all about it when I get back :)
