| Wow, reading through old blogs can provide a lot of perspective. So much has changed. I've changed. Long gone are the days where I can blog about high school dances, debate tournaments, and pointless drama. Once I move into my apartment in August I will be living an almost completely adult life. Class, Work, life. I just can't believe where I am. A lot of the time I still feel like the bright-eyed 17 year old that I was my senior year in high school. I feel like I am still waiting. What for? I am not sure, but I am waiting for something. I think I am still waiting to find something I am intensely passionate about. I enjoy college. Taking Spanish and Education classes are interesting and I will be mostly content with a teaching career after I graduate, but I think I will still feel like I am waiting. Am I waiting to find that "special someone" that I am going to spend the rest of my life with? I don't think so. Slowly, but surely I am getting turned off of the idea that my life will depend on someone else. I already have enough people to surround myself with; family friends. I don't need that. I am waiting for something that I am excited about. I think traveling might be just the ticket. I was so pumped to study and live in Mexico this summer. I don't think anyone understood how truly devastated I was when my trip was canceled. Thankfully, I had the opportunity to make up for it with the trip to Florida and the cruise right afterward, but I still feel like I missed out. I opted not to take the classes this summer, so I could try and go on the trip during winter break or in the fall. I hope it works out. I feel like I will find something; a filling for the void, the peace to my anxious heart, when I study abroad in a world foreign to me.
I hope, one day soon, that I can stop waiting.

| This year was the BEST Thanksgiving to date.
It was just my family and I, but it was alot of relaxing fun. My mom
and I made a delicious dinner. I was very proud of it. My Dad is uber
picky and he didnt have ONE CRITICAL THING to say. Not one. We must
have done something right. We made all of the following FROM SCRATCH,
nothing from any boxes: deviled eggs, stuffing, mashed potatoes, orangy
asparagus stuff, sweet potatoe pie, apple pie, normal turkey, cajun
rotiesserie turkey, gravy and, of course, rolls. It was a feast.
We also let my Dad open a few of his birthday presents early
(tomorrow is his birthday) and one of them was Guitar Hero Two! We have
been playing it all day long! We didnt even watch any football! It was
craziness. We are all obsessed. I did take a break to watch Grey's
Anatomy because I am even more obsessed with that (it was a great
episode, btw).
I hope everyone else had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
PS-I am thankful that God is making my last year living at home so amazing.

| Woo hoo! Made it home in time from Jessica's last night in time to watch Grey's Anatomy. i am so stress free right now that it is AMAZING! I finally have time to hangout! wheeeeeee!!!! I kinda think I am getting sick, but better now than during school. There was a beautiful sunrise this morning! it was amazing!!!! I Dare You to Move by Switchfoot was on the radio and I was just in awe, I almost swerved off the road because of how much I was staring. It was beautiful. | | |
| Debate Tourney! WOO, just Bob, Kayla, Kelso and I! It was a blast.
Bob and I sucked it up, but in our last round we ran a Consult Chuck Norris Counterplan. That was sexy.
Memorable Moments
BOB:"Kayla what did you get again? Oh, yeah teryaki chicken"
*Waiter brings out Kayla's plate*
KAYLA: *gasp* I love teryaki chicken!
WAITER: Ma'am here is your teryaki chicken in brown rice.
KAYLA: Thanks. Kelso, what is this brown stuff.
BOB, STACI, KELSO: Rice
KAYLA: But its brown!
Good weekend with good friends despite the intial ill feelings because
of my hatred toward CX. I got over that quickly and came to enjoy the
weekend.
We also saw The Prestige which turned out to be an excellent movie. It
was really slow in the middle, but the end made up for it!

| I just now realized that I witnessed my last Frisco vs. Centennial game
(while I am at FHS, who knows, maybe I will come back to visit).
Im super glad I went because I had a lot of fun. I was a little worried
because a majority of my close friends werent going, but I realized
that its super fun to hang out with different groups of people.
So, in conclusion, tonight was pretty much frickin awesome.
Tailgate party.
Fooseball game. We beat Centennial 33-10.
Starbucks.
The Park (don't sterilize your balls, lol)
Yup. I have fun friends.
