This is how I would describe my life right now...... contrary to popular belief, this is not a bad thing. For me right now, this is a GREAT thing. I'm back in Provo with a lot of the same characters and situations, but with AMAZING new and exciting additions. I'm not going to lie- there have been some moments where I find myself thinking "uh....didn't I do this already?" or "wait....what year is it?" or "WHAT THE....they're STILL here??? ( i'm sure they think that about me...but whatev). Or I see people doing ridiculous things and just laugh to myself because I know I've done that very same thing too, just 8 years ago... (e.g. pretending to stop and talk on the phone half way up th RB stays because they're out of breath, etc.) I just love Provo and I'm not ashamed to say that. I love being quasi-roommates with my mission comps (Thaiglish is spoken continuously). I am so blessed. I love that it's conference weekend and that I can listen (in English) to our Prophet. I love that this gospel is REAL and TRUE. I love my family (they're too good to me). I love my 2nd family (they're too good to me, too. Really) I love my 3rd family- you my friends. I couldn't ask for a better life....
...except that I need a "real" one...
but whatever....this is MY real life.
