this semester for me,

is going to be fun but very time consuming. so far i've just kind of hated not being able to see everyone during the week and have been pretty bored. luckily i've been able to get some extra sleep, which is nice seeing as how i think i'm coming down with the sickness. i've been worrying about things that i probably shouldn't be. but mostly i'm looking forward to my last semester, making a lot of art work, and am terrified about the unknown future that is constantly looming in my mind. one thing i'm for sure looking forward to is the trip to austin this weekend. i get to see:

seattle, WA









well, i got back from seattle yesterday. wow! it was so much more than i had anticipated. i literally think i just had the best week in my life. it felt so natural being there. the first two days we were there everything was bright, sunny, and perfect. i pretty much knew right off the bat that i will be moving to this place as soon as i possibly can.

everyone was so nice, and everything was so mossy and adorable. there are so many things to do outside there, the food was all so delicious, the people could actually drive, and the rain was something that i find very relaxing and exhilarating. luckily we stayed with people who i know i will definitely have waiting to befriend me when i move there. one of the guys that we stayed with actually thanked madison and i for staying at their house.

seeing all the teenage cool kids/koji kondo boys (+ jesse) was so surreal. the show on new years eve night was totally awesome, and i danced pretty hard regardless of the fact that i didn't really know many others in the crowd. we followed the boys to portland for their new years day show and even though not that many people showed up i had a total blast. then that night we stayed with two guys who had also come to the show. they had a really cute dog, and lots of room for people to sleep. i woke up at like 8 in the morning to a chorus of snores and 10 really sleepy babies. that morning was so perfect, i never wanted it to end.

now i'm back and i'm really missing a lot of people. i cant wait until everyone is back and here and i get to see them all again. the stories will be endless. ahhhhhh!
