Home Again, Home Again...

And so it ends.

Well, the time has come to go home.

After 4 amazing months at BYU, the semester is officially over and I am back at home in Spanish Fork. It's honestly hard to believe it's already over. I guess time really does fly when you're having fun.

It never really hits me that something is over until it actually is over. I don't know if that's necessarily a good thing or not. I'm not sure if I just push away the fact that things are about to change when I don't want them to, or if I am just trying so hard to soak in every precious second. Either way, when the time actually came to hop in the car and drive away from Whitney Hall, I have to admit I got a little emotional thinking that I won't be coming back. To the kids of the 46th Ward, you guys are the best. I wish you all the best of luck in life, go forth and serve!

And so, here I am now at home, still waiting to head back up to college. I can't believe I'm done with school for 3 years. I really can't believe that the next big thing I'm waiting on is my mission!! I've never felt like a candidate for a mission, guess I never felt old enough. In my eyes, missionaries are men who have such a strong spirit about them. These guys are mighty men and maybe someday I can be just like them...wow.

That day is today. I know where I'm going, I know what I need to do, I am just sitting around waiting to go to the MTC and begin the greatest adventure of my life.


Nothing super important happened today or yesterday...or the day before (yes, I'm aware that I didn't post two nights ago and I tried to post this last night but fell asleep). I said goodbye to Mackenzie since she's off to Washington Friday night. She'll be back in a couple of weeks but I'll still miss her in the meantime. I hung out with my good friends last night. We always have some great times and have some spectacular discussions; they're very insightful people. James and Jake gave me a t-shirt and a bar of soap with this little guy on them...

If you don't know what this is, it's called the troll face. We've all been on the internet and know that one guy who posts annoying comments just to make people mad. He will say anything no matter how illogical it is just to get a rise out of everyone he can. Basically, he wants to watch the world burn in a sense. I'm kind of notorious among my friends to be a troll to them. When we play board games like Monopoly or Risk, I go into the game well knowing I'm not going to win. Therefore, my goal is to lose, but make sure whoever is winning has the most miserable time doing so. Is it wrong? Probably. Is it worth it?


So that's my week! I'll be back tomorrow with something more exciting that people might actually want to read.
