it always makes my day when my best friend julie comes up to logan to visit. she makes me happy. it sounds cheesy but it is so true. when we get together we just talk talk talk and laugh laugh laugh. i miss living with her so much. julie graduated last semester and moved down to salt lake and it has actually been harder on me than i thought it would be. i miss hanging out with her often. i miss our late night chats and i miss planning parties with her! she is my other half.
last night julie and i watched an episode of our favorite tv show felicity, a tv series we watched when we first became friends. watching felicity reminded us when we first became friends which then sparked a conversation down memory lane. we started talking about all of our favorite college memories. it made us laugh but also made me a little sad. we were talking about how you never realize how good you have it until it ends. one of our favorite times in our lives was when we lived in logan a couple summers ago. life was simple and fun. i worked everyday night at texas road house and spent the days laying out by the pool and attending logan's summer festivities. there aren't very many college students that stay in logan during the summers, but the ones who do stay make it count. i hung out with my friends and boyfriend every night. we found joy in making plans and didn't really care what we ended up doing we just enjoyed each others company.
i miss that time so much and treausre those precious memories but i do know that life continues to go on. getting older is rough but exciting at the same time. i am a person that becomes attatched to people and experiences, when they end it is hard for me but i also find excitment in change and new experiences. i guess the best i advice i can give to anyone is to enjoy EVERY single minute of life. even the bad times because it goes by so fast. it changes constantly and can take a sharp turn when you least expect it.
7 eleven hot chocolate
this fall i have become addicted to 7 eleven's hot chocolate, especially their pumpkin spice. i can actaully afford to drink these often because they are like a buck. so much better than starbucks.
Many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountain tops of our desires.

so when life gets me down, because yes i have those moments i think what makes me happy? what cheers me up? and honestly it is really random things like walking around the grocery store, making crafts, going out to eat, eating cookies, watching my favorite tv show, doing crafts, planning parties, making dinner and having long long loooooong chats with my best friends.
