Leaving

Time passes so very quickly. I can not believe I only have four days left until I leave for Idaho! I am extremely excited and thoroughly optimistic about this new adventure!

This past week has been a fun one! I have been getting everything together and I am just taking care of all the finishing touches to be set to move. It is so great that I am finally going to get away from Las Vegas. I am going to miss my family and friends, but something that I have learned is that the people you always want near you won't ever really be too far away. My family will always be there for me and my closest friends are not going anywhere. It means a lot to me.

Something has been weighing heavily on my mind lately though...its Frankie. He really became my best friend. Even though it seems like we're always fighting and angry at each other, he is a huge support. I have been really glad to have him around. I am pretty positive that these next eight weeks are going to change a lot for Frankie and I. I don't want it to change, but we both are entering the phase of our lives where we are taking the leap from childhood to adulthood. Hopefully we can come out of the BIG CHANGE as great friends with good memories.

My Mom is so amazing! I just need to say that! She is my soul sista'! Seriously, I bet her and I were best friends in Heaven but because my mom was more advanced than I am...God decided to make her my mom on Earth! What a woman! Let me tell you....she means so much to me. I am so grateful for her and all the fun we have together. I want to be just like her! AND I really want to take her to Idaho with me. I would love to have her there. To laugh with me, cry with me, just to be my closest friend! I love her!

I think this blog was just me rambling about leaving! It has come so fast and I am very grateful for the opportunity to attend BYU-I! It is going to be great...I'll keep you posted!

What a great tribute to your mother! Your words were very sweet and she will cherish them while you are gone.

And, about Frankie...if the two of you end up anything less than friends, I hope that we won't be. You're an awesome young lady and I'd hate for our relationship to be based on y'all's relationship, if you know what I mean. Anyway, keep in touch. You'll be missed.

Well look whose blog I stumbled upon! We're so sad you're leaving us, but so excited for your new adventure! We wish you better luck in the dating department up North!

Hannay, I found your blog through the Marina's. It's so fun finding out what random people share this interest! You are such an amazing young lady. What a blessing it is for you to realize how fabulous your mom is at such a young age. It took me much longer to appreciate mine, and I feel like I'll forever be making up for lost gratitude for her.

You have been a shining example to so many here in Vegas, and will be so missed! My girls just adore you, and I pray that they turn out even a little like you. Thank you.

Sorry for misspelling your name. I'm totally lame.

Holy cow...you are going to have SUCH a good time in Idaho! Of course you will miss your family, but they are just a phone call away! I still talk to my mom on my way to work VERY often, and I'm practically an old lady! :) Remember that we have a date in about 7 1/2 weeks!
