Summer Block/Fall Semester, General Conference, and other Random Insomniatic topics

So I just registered for classes for Fall Semester 2010. (Attempted to is actually a better description but I will fix it tomorrow and it will be fine ) This is the last semester of classes before Andrew comes home. This is the first time that its felt real that he comes home THIS year. Is it bad that it freaks me out? ha ha Of course I love him and day dream of the day I get to see him again but my mind still says "2 years". I still think oh in 2 years I will tell him about this, or in 2 years I am going to hug his guts out. But its not 2 years any more.... When did that happen? I should be getting on my knee's and thanking the Lord for blessing me with the amazing experiences I have had (will have) that have resulted in time speeding by me.

I will later, I assure you. Now i am just thinking of all the things I have yet to do this year. It all happens so fast. I am only 21 and I feel like life is going at hurtling speeds. When do we start to realize this? To learn to take each day as they come and make the most of them. To live in the moment, preparing for the next so you never have regret. If I have learned anything so far this year, its that happiness is a choice and one we must make. No one can make it for us. General Conference is this weekend, I always look forward to conference but I have been anticipating/craving/yearning for this one much more than I usually do. We are so blessed with technology these days that people all around the world can participate in General Conference, even more blessed to have living Prophets upon the earth so willing to direct, guide, and counsel us in such perilous times. Its such a comfort to hear them speak, such an eye opener to know what we must focus on. I can't wait! (Have I ever mentioned how much I dislike that phrase :P)

Last weekend was the Festival of Colors... I went 2 years ago and it was a lot of fun. It was fun this time too... its just become a lot bigger so it lost some of its finesse if that makes any sense. But I love my roomies and we had fun as always :)

I am glad April 1st is over. I am NOT a fan of April fools day. You can't believe a single word any one says to you.... hows that for fun? Not to mention Mother Nature was cruel today. Snow on the first day of April? Its as if she's saying "APRIL FOOLS! Its not really spring." Grr.

Wednesday marked 5 weeks until we go to Africa, and 15 months since Andrew left on his mission. I already talked about how time is freaking me out lately...... ha ha

Well I think this is all I have to blabber about for now I will leave you with my classes schedules for summer and fall. (o0o exciting I know :)
