Friends

Okay, sooo. It's so weird. My friends are starting to leave on their missions. Kind of weird to me. I mean, I've already had a bunch leave, but now it's starting to be all my close friends from school. It's going to be so weird when I go back to school and they're not there everyday. I'm way excited for them, but at the same time, it's just crazy.

I also really miss school. I thought it would be cool to get back to California, but it's not all it's cracked up to be. This last week was the first week that my CA friends were back from school, so it's been a lonely summer so far. All I've been doing is working and hanging out with my family...not to say that's a bad thing, it's not. It's just that I REALLY, REALLY miss the whole college atmosphere, and although I never thought I'd say it, I miss Utard. Yes, that's right folks, I said it. I MISS UTARD. I miss having friends over all the time. I miss my roommates. I miss being on my own. I'll be completely honest. I can't wait to get back. But complaining about how much I miss it isn't going to do me any good. So, I've decided I'm going to try and have a really good attitude about the whole thing.

I love the weather out here. It hasn't been too hot lately, which has been nice. I love having home cooked meals all the time. I love hanging out with my siblings, and now my CA friends. I love my house. I love my bedroom. I love Santa Rosa. I really do love it.

Self, good day.
