Summa Summa!

Well it is finally drawing to a close.  Summer is almost officially over. This was an interesting summer to say the least.  I wasn't out parting every night like I have done in the past.  Most nights I just enjoyed some alone time. Most Friday nights consisted of me watching Bride Night on TLC sometimes even while taking a soak in the tub. I went back to work at Canyon View Cleaners and I traveled.  I also learned A LOT this summer. I thought I might as well share some of them with you.
This summer I learned...
a little bit about how to spot your true friends
some more about the need for service all around the world
what it means to grow up
I have rotten luck with airplanes
my mother and my sister are the best friends a girl could ever ask for
I do not know how to save money
I am blessed beyond measure
having a man is a "privilege" that I can live without for a while
sometimes you just need to talk it out
when life gives you lemons, stick them up your shirt and pretend like they are boobs
friends may leave but my piano will always be there to pick me back up
I have patella femoral syndrome (ok so I only just discovered this on Monday)
to accept the fact that despite the constant barrage of questions, The Lord helped me in my decision to not serve a mission at this time, and He is HAPPY with this choice because I turned to him and I will not sway through whatever the world blows at me because of my decision
I am me.

Now I am back at school and I have almost already finished a week of my sophomore year.  Tomorrow I head to Bear Lake to spend time with a friend.  I am so beyond excited for this school year and all the opportunities I will have.  I am excited to learn and grow some more.
