• "and all we need is time tonight we'll touch the sky" (This Day & Age).

  "Let's make this a night to remember. Let's forget all the times we spent together. Let's run with our eyes closed, because, I suppose, some dreams are meant to be broken. Let's run away, because I don't know how to say this anyway" (This Day & Age).

  Today was my last day home in Chicago. Tomorrow I get set apart and leave for the MTC.

  It was hard to say goodbye to Gina and Colin today. Gina has been such a great friend for so long- and Colin. Colin has been a major support for me these past few months. I wish we could have had more time to do more together. Today we went minature golfing and then we got drinks at Red Robbin. I held it together until I got in the car, and then the water works turned on.

  Tomorrow I say goodbye to my siblings. Ack. I don't know if I can do it. This is going to be so hard for me. I love them all so much.

  By Wednesday I will have a companion and will be in every way a Missionary. You will next hear from me in the MTC. There will likely be only one or two updates in the next three weeks. After that updates will be weekly. I have enjoyed talking with all of you! I love xanga! Don't forget to write! My address is on the public site- just click the link for contact information.
