oh. my. lanta. i honestly am not sure how this semester was able to fly by as fast as it did. i'm glad and sad. go figure. all summer i did nothing but complain about coming out to Idaho, because i didn't want to leave my family, friends, school district, or pretty much the east coast in general. i remember talking with my dad and saying "i wish i could just stay home, i already know i'm going to hate it out there." he responded with "be careful what you say. you're now going to go out there and absolutely love it, just for saying that last sentence.... it's what we call karma." well... as usual, my daddy was right... and karma has come back to bite me in the butt. i've achieved new levels of mental, emotional, physical, and most importantly spiritual growth, that i thought were not possible. i've been able to cultivate my talents, up to a level that will be able to help build the kingdom of God. i've made the most amazing friendships with some of the most amazing people. their testimonies of music, and the gospel, have been able to stabilize my own testimony. they have all brought me laughter, company, encouragement, music, inspiration, good times, early mornings, late nights, study groups, movie nights, temple trips, pre-jury bonding sessions, and love. lots and lots of love. although i am SO SO SO excited to get on a plane and come home this saturday, i am devastated at the thought that i will not be seeing some of these people until april, and even more of them until next september. holy cow, that seems like an eternity. a truly amazing woman, Erin McMahon told me today, "Those who live the gospel understand that they will never see each other for the last time. "♥ ... how incredible is she? this has brought me the most comfort as i spend my last few days as a first semester pre-music major at BYU-Idaho.
