Write of Passage: February 2012

Its crazy how the days just get past you! Already its the end of February and I only have three months left in Boston. I can't believe how fast the time goes by. Lots has happened since the beginning of 2012. I have been doing online classes, which definitely are not my favorite thing. Is hard as it is sometimes, I cannot complain. I keep thinking what it would be like had I not taken any classes online. I would only have one year of school under my belt. Thank goodness I'm getting them done. One of the highlights so far of 2012 was Elisse and Daleen's visit. We had so much fun! Picking them up at the airport was the first exciting part of their trip. It never gets old embracing someone you love after being away from them for so long. I can't even fully explain the feeling, but it is great! All feelings of homesickness and sadness leave you, and you are filled with so much happiness. The interesting part is that the only way to feel that amazing feeling is to be away from the ones you love for a very long time. Luckily, I get to experience that feeling three more times. We had so much fun exploring the city, venturing to Rhode Island, and making a couple trips to my favorite shop in Boston, Sweets. :) One of the worst feelings in the world is having to say goodbye to someone you love and not seeing them for a long time. I said it before and I'll say it again, it never gets easier to say goodbye. The only thing that gets easier is knowing that I will see them sooner then when I said goodbye the first time to Mom and Rashelle. The trip is a memory I will always cherish. Another exciting event that has happened since the beginning of the year has been finishing my application for BYU (I'm crossing my fingers that I get in). I'm really excited for what the future holds and where life takes me. Life is good :)
