27 months people

ohhhh man. so there is this boy. he's kinda cool i guess. we met last summer. i was kinda rude. i was wearing my XXL Big Scoop shirt when i met him. lookin real fine might i add. he liked me. love at first sight ya know? i don't know how he could have resisted me when i looked so good. there was really no hope for him in this situation ;) kidding. he thought i was crazy... which makes sense. after a day full of ice cream i can definitely get a little bit crazy. you know me.. ok. so then i met him again, only this time was down at BYU in the summer. I was down there for my cousin's wedding and I went to play with ma bestie tessa may and she was friends with him because he stalked her on facebook. He's kinda creepy like that... anywayyyy. then he made me ask him to dance with him. thats a different story though. i didn't really think anything of it at the time. but now when i think about it, its cute ha. then i skyped tessa all the time as besties do right? and this kid decided to rain on our parade and join in these lil skype dates we had goin on. soon enough they become just skype dates between this boy and myself. no more tessa haha we'd skype a lot. which i would have thought was weird if anyone else was skyping someone they'd only met like twice but when it was me and him it seemed normal. i don't know how to explain it. anyway so i pretty much basically made his life by getting accepted to byu ;) kidding. well lets just say the both of us were pretty excited about it. then i came to byu. we were goooood friends for a bit. he tried really hard to get me to like him. it was cute. but being the good actress that i am, he had no idea what was actually going on in this head of mine. he asked me out on dates all the time. i hate dates. so i said no. then one time i realized that i was only gonna have 15 days left with him.. so i decided to hang out with him as much as possible. there was some major smotherage on my part. and for that i sincerely apologize, you. (As i'm writing this, i'm skyping him. he's been driving all day, the poor little soul. He's dozing off. pretty much asleep right now. so precious. i'm such a creep watching him sleep like this) anyway, i finally agree to go on a date. it went well. i had fun! it ended really really well if you know what i'm sayin... ;) we spent every day together for a week and a half. he left last night. it was tough to say goodbye.. very very tough. he's perfect for me i think. he's pigeon toed, he has webbed toes, hes got brown hair and brown eyes, he's 6'0ish?, he's athletic, he's a terrible dancer ;), his favorite color is red, he wants to live in cardston, he is a GENIUS, he is a good teacher, he can play the piano like nobody's business, he is a really really good kisser, he is slightly hilarious, he has good taste in some music haha, he has an awesome family whom i have yet to meet in person... skyping them is just great though, he gave me swollen lips one time, he will be a great father and husband to a really lucky family one day, he takes care of me, he wants me to be happy, he is gonna be one heck of a missionary, he's a worthy priesthood holder and although he's never actually born his testimony to me i know he's got a firm testimony of the gospel, he's just a good person all around, and to top it all off he's got the cutest lil accent that i absolutely love. He's just awesome and i like him a lot! he met my family last night. they like him. he likes them. my sisters loved him haha it was so fun for me to see them all together. i'll see him again in 27 months. oh gosh i cannot wait :)

bittersweet

so there is 10 days left.. 
10 days until I see my family. 
10 days until I am officially done with tests :)
10 days left until I have to say goodbye to all my new friends...
I have obviously LOVED my first semester at BYU. Absolutely LOVED IT! It has been everything I hoped it would be and more. However, I have this problem of being homesick an awful lot. I just love my family so so so incredibly much and it just tears my heart and soul into pieces being so far away from them for so long. Sometimes I just need to have a hug from my Dad and to be able to have my Mom play with my hair while I cry to her about how hard and complicated my life is. I miss my little sisters so so much. We just started getting close before I left. Don't get me wrong, we have always been close, but we were starting to get to that phase where you are more like friends you know? That stage when you don't fight as much, there is still and always will be the cat fights with the pulling hair and scratching and such, but I just started to get along with my sisters and actually hang out with them on a daily basis. It was great! I was loving it. Oh and lets not forget my brother. The day he came home was the best day of my life, hands down. And to just spend 3 weeks with him and then have him ripped away from me again? Gall! Just let me be friends with him for once please! Anyway, I think that what I'm getting at here is that I just love my family. More than anything else on this earth. 
BUT!
