Well friends and family, it’s been a while, hasn’t it?! I do apologize. In my free time I often find myself discovering pictures of old-fashion tea parties and libraries or researching silly things such as personality types, cockroaches ability to withstand nuclear radiation or the definitions of words. You may think I’m kidding, but I am completely serious! I’m such a nerd. haha
Anyways…these past few weeks have been exquisite. The leaves have begun to change colors and fall from the trees, and the air is often very pleasant. Good Friday was spent with my housemates indulging in amazing food. It was nice to feel like a family a little bit. Easter was amazing, although I was terribly sad to think of all that I was missing back home. In Australia, they don’t dye eggs or buy new dresses. Weird, huh? This week we’ve been on holiday. (That’s what they call vacations!) For the most part I’ve hung out around the house; resting, coloring and writing. There have been a few parties here and there, but because of the rain, most of the time we stay huddled inside. I’m anxious to get back into the swing of things!

Yesterday I received a package from Natalie. It was the biggest surprise! I’m currently wrapped up in my new butterfly blankie... I love it! Thanks friend! I’m so thankful for technology too. Although skype often disconnects, it’s wonderful to see and hear a person for a while! ;)
Whenever I write, I feel as though there is so much going on that I wouldn’t even know how to describe. I wish you all could walk the streets I do.
Soon I will have to make some pretty big decisions, and in the mean time I’m waiting patiently (well, I’m trying!) for God to reveal to me what He wants me to do. I’m young, free, and have the world in front of me. Often times I like to plan (in intense detail) the rest of my life, but often planning too much of something takes the adventure out of it. Right?! Right. (That’s me convincing myself…)
May 9 th will be 4 months since I’ve seen your wonderful faces. Time has gone sooo quickly. And… I’m pretty sure that if I love you this much from a distance, I’ll love you even more when I’m with you!
All that to say, I love and miss you. I appreciate you and feel completely blessed to have friends and family like you.

There’s my random ramblings…
Peace out.
