First Day of School

First day of school, first day of school! Picture me saying that just like Nemo... Because I totally did this morning. :)


Not going to lie, yesterday was difficult. My friends were going to see Tangled and although I had already seen it twice before, I was convinced to tag along. When we got to the theater they refused to give us the student discount so it cost 15 bucks. Lame, right?! It's a delightful movie, but all I could think about was home. I had seen it in America with my mom and my sisters on my birthday, and then I saw it with the Fehlen family as well. When I got home, I cried for probably an hour. 


It would be the first day of school where my parents weren't there to circle around to pray for me. It would be the first day of school where I didn't line up with Jon and Dan to take a pic. A very melancholy feeling, ay? 
You betcha. 


But when I woke up, I felt excited. It's finally here. My friends and I found seats, pulled out our notepads, pens (of all different colors of course!) and Bibles and took probably 7 pages of notes. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I felt very educationally and spiritually motivated. At one point I was overwhelmed by the amount of information seeping into my brain, but it's stuff I've always wanted to know! My classes are pretty much like church. EVERY DAY. That's legit. 


So here's a smile and a tear from Australia. Keep pressing on loved ones.
