Goodbye.

I haven't ever been this sad before.
I seriously cannot believe Freshman year is over.
Bam.
Just like that.
The year FLEW by.
Soooooo sadddddd. :[
I had to say so many "goodbyes" and "see you in 2 years"....
It was heartbreaking.
I'll blog about my entire experience later.
Anyways, here are some of the hardest goodbyes.

What will I do without these girls and their faces?

And what about this girl? I live with her! She is my ROOMMATE. who else am I going to rant to? 

Oh Mags. 4 Months until we go for 14 and 6. :]

What will i do without Sammy's Mondays and these people?

Will is the BEST person ever.

These three mean more to me than you'll ever know.

This is basically Freshman year. Right here. Minus a few. It wouldn't have been the same without them.

Yeesh.
Goodbyes suck. 

"Don't be dismayed at goodbyes, a farewell is necessary before you can meet again: and meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends."
- Richard Bach.

To all of you I met Freshman year, close friends or occasional sightings, whether I failed to mention you or not:
I love you.
Thank you for everything.
Until we meet again.

Cruel.

Sometimes when I'm studying...
My iPod shuffle is cruel.
And puts on songs (in a row, I might add)
Like:
"Say Goodbye"
"You are Goodbye"
"All We Ever Do is Say Goodbye"

Really nice, huh?
I CANNOT DO THIS!
I love my life wayyyy too much up here at BYU.
And to say goodbye to my friends for 4 months...
Some of them TWO FREAKING YEARS....
It's too much.
Combine this stress with that of 3 more finals, packing up the room, and paperwork for the new job and I am one frazzled girl.
Yeesh.
At least the sun is out.
And John is here to serenade me.

Anywho:
Here are some pictures.
I'll have more when the real goodbyes start tonight.
Peace.

Bruddah.

My wittwe bwothew turned 17 yesterday.
This makes me....
OLD!
He's going to be an ADULT next year.
And i'll be 19 in 3 months.
Holy cow.
I don't wanna grow up.

Anyways.
Brad is great.
I miss his Chellie voice and his massive hugs every time I walk in the door.
And fighting over the car is great too.
Nah.
Ever since i've gone to college,
We've gotten along so much better.
Cause.
Let's be honest.
I miss him.
So.
In the spirit of missing him,
I actually like hanging with him when I'm home.

This picture is SO old. Ha.

Happy Birthday Brad.
Go kiss someone for me.
Just kidding.
You're awesome.
I love you.

This girl goes home in 9 days....
Can you believe it???

Inspiration.

Since Finals are lurking,
And coming in a week.
I thought I would give some inspiration.

Happy Friday. :]

Conference.

"Walk with the confidence that God will guide your steps."
- David A. Bednar

Obviously, my favorite talk was Bednar's.
It was seriously so amazing.
Light.
Such an interesting topic.

I am so grateful for this weekend.
For all the talks given.
They were seriously so amazing.
Such a spiritual boost.
I now know I can do anything these next 3 weeks to finish out college.
I'm also thankful for Aly and Jess.
They are such great friends.
They lifted me up when I needed it the most. :]
So.
Hello Finals Week.
Come and get me.
Isn't it awesome that Heavenly Father knows what you need most?

This kid?
He's in Germany.
Berlin is now a place I need to visit ASAP.
That picture makes it look so appealing huh?
Ha! ;]
Later.
