Midterms

As much as this blog would make you think that we do awesome things all the time, it's not entirely true. After all we (Jason) are at school which comes with the fair share of college life including midterm papers, projects, worrying about paying rent and finding quick meals to make. I'm not entirely sure why I'm writing this post other than it's therapeutic and Jason is over in the dining room typing a midterm paper so why should I let him have all the fun? It's been two months to the day that we arrived here. I feel like life has settled down somewhat into a pattern which I've decided isn't always the best. It's nice to feel like things are different, like you have a new start, and everything is fascinating. When I settle into a pattern I start to think about my life and where I'm going which isn't always so fun. Also with the seasons changing I find myself homesick for the Utah mountains full of colorful leaves, normal fall temperatures, roads that I can actually drive on and grocery stores I can actually go to more than every other week. Not to mention a warm house, the smell of pumpkin cookies and being surrounded by family where life is just comfortable, you can just be you wether that's the tired, stressed, worried "I don't know what to do with my life," or the "life is awesome and I just want you all to know." *sigh*

  1. Girl, I feel ya. I am having a major existential crisis over here. A large one. There are so many things I want to do, but I just don't know how. Hugs from D.C.! (see you in 2.5 weeks!)
