I have so much to say! First off, I finished finals and it was the greatest feeling in the entire world. I can't believe that I finished my Junior year of the Dietetics program. It went by way to fast. I have loved it so much. Yes, there have been times when I almost marched in the the Life Science Student Advisement Center and changed my major, but I am so glad I didn't. I have made 23 new sisters and 1 new brother. I have learned so much and school makes me so happy.
I can't believe it will only be one more year until I graduate! Crazy how time flies.
Which leads me to my second point. I saw two of my best friends yesterday. Let me tell you, I could not wipe that smile off my face! I finally saw Mar after 21 months of being apart. She got home in January, but was living in Tennessee with her mom. She's in Utah because school starts next Monday for Spring classes. And we met, along with Shaylee, at Logan's homecoming. I know!! He is home! It was absolutely crazy to think that he was home. Saturday night I was texting Mary and just freaking out that we would be able to finally see each other after 21 months. I told her it was like Christmas. And it was, because I could not sleep I was so excited!
We went to Logan's homecoming and he did such a great job. It was so fun to see him, a little weird, but still really great! During sacrament meeting we were singing a hymn, I don't even remember, but there was a line that talked about being reunited with friends and family. I was just smiling so big and couldn't believe I was actually sitting by my best friend waiting to hear from my other best friend speak. It was too good to be true. I had written for two years and finally got to talk to them in person.
I haven't been that happy in a long time, and let me tell you. It felt absolutely amazing!
So blessed to have her as my best friend!
Us at Logan's homecoming (Don't ask me why we didn't get one with him, but we didn't)
Visited our stomping grounds. Unfortunately, they are no longer there
I was reading past posts trying to see how I had changed over the last two years. Man, I was so sad to see my friends leave and to stay home. I look back at the experiences that I had. I was definitely called to stay home. There were people that I met that I was supposed to meet, I traveled and had experiences that I wouldn't give back for the world. This was on a post back in June 2013 and while it was hard to live by, I did it. Now, I can enjoy this time that I have with my friends and can't wait to hear all of their stories. It feels so nice to be reunited.
"So my new perspective/attitude: Live Life NOW! Don't wait two years or a year and a half when all of my friends get home. Instead, live it right now."
Love,
Rach
