Blank Page

Hello Friends! I wanted to apologize for my mass amount of blog entires (or lack there of). I tried to post my photos that will be in the documentary photography exhibit, but it was being stubborn and I did not have the time to figure it out. Well... no more excuses. Time to write something! 

Finals are coming. Fast. They will come fast and go fast. Time scares me sometimes... it never takes a rest. I remember being in elementary school waiting, first of all, for Christmas break... then the second Christmas was over I would start counting down until summer. I was never terribly patient. This continues to be, and I fear will always be, a great downfall of mine. My inability to be  patient has changed from days until a break to specific situations (a.k.a. people). Time goes way too fast for me to count down much of anything... except for England. 40 days. No matter how much I feel I can't wait for the next 40 days to go by, I just want to enjoy them. The faster they fly by, the faster my five months in England will fly by. I want nothing more than to enjoy the here and now. 

Right here, right now, I am able to enjoy time with my friends between preparing for finals week and sleeping as much as possible (I have a cold and am dedicated to kicking it's butt before my finals begin). In a couple weeks, after I move back to my parents house, I will be able to enjoy time with family and friends between working and drinking coffee... which both are able to be done with friends a great deal of the time. I am blessed with the ability to travel with wonderful friends and I feel so lucky to have such an amazing opportunity that allowed me to meet some wonderful girls! That 8 hour flight will be a breeze! 

Time is too short to wish it away! My hope is to enjoy every moment and that you will do the same!
