dreading with joy
i'm so excited to come home, but i am dreading my long airplane flights and going through scary airports just as much. the promises of having a good summer (finally) keeps me excited! it will be interesting to have to get used to being home again. i think i will enjoy every moment of it! taco bell here i come! warm shower in a bathroom that doesn't smell and that isn't armed with big spiders everywhere will be a long shower now! woohoo!!
i miss my friends sooo much and i hope i can see some of them. unfortunately, i don't get much time at home before i have to move off to anderson and go to summer school. three hours of spanish every morning for two months doesn't sound too appealing, but who knows. maybe i'll meet some new friends. maybe i'll actually learn spanish! hahahah!
today i yearned to go home with a burning in my heart. i honestly can't wait to see mom and dad's face and give them a huge hug when i get off that plane. i miss them a lot more than i had expected and i finally feel like things can get back to the good old days. our family seems to be having a joyful season because of all the buzz my brother's wedding is making. so that makes everyone extra happy.
i got two phone calls today as well as a nice one last night from my special someone. i doubt that many couples can boast such excitement from three calls all under 20 minutes. in some ways i feel even closer to scott because of the distance between us. but i can't express what my level of excitement will be when i see him. i'll go nuts for sure. like all the christmases of childhood rolled into one huge moment. oh, it will be so sweet.
i don't think i've looked forward to so many good things before. seriously, i think this will be the golden summer because i will be in a house with melody and hopefully some other cool people. i'll have my boyfriend near me. i'll be able to have some realitively decent jobs at starbucks and with a computer company. and my brother is getting married!
you would think that i would miss this place, but when one has that much goodness to look forward to, how can i think of missing this place? i will look back fondly, but i doubt i will ever find myself missing the actual situation i have here. i will miss my friends that i've made here though. there is one special girl named paj ia (she's Mong) that i will miss and think of often. she and i have been great friends here and i feel so glad to have met her. she is one incredible girl with such a heart for people and laughter. i hope that we can get together in california some day, cause she and i have way too much fun when we're together. for such a short girl she has a lot of spunk and a lot of real asian flare for drama, loud laughter, and community. i love that girl. thanks paj ia for being cool and seriously being a friend.
