Past, Present & Future

Taking two weeks off was sort of needed but also a bad habit so here is a recap from the last two weeks. Bailey died unexpectedly which was so sad. So that was the main reason I took a hiatus. Then I went to Canada with my friends Matt and Chris. That was a much needed vacation since I feel like I haven't really had a summer. And I may or may not have spent $152 at a bookstore :). Canada was a lot of fun and I was so happy to see my college friends.

Now I'm starting to pack up for college (I leave on Tuesday!). I have most of my winter stuff packed up but there is so much more I need to do. My to-do list right now is so long but I'm going to tackle each item before I move. Also, my family just got a new puppy. Literally he is only 8 weeks old! His name is Gus (like Augustus from The Fault in Our Stars). Of course my family gets a puppy a week before I go to college. He is really smart. He sort of understands sit, no and his name. I can't wait to come home in about a month and see how much he grows.

There are some things I'm looking forward to that are coming up pretty quickly, like getting my hair done on Monday. I'm also going to buy an iPad mini. Then I move back to Minot on Tuesday and start RA training on Wednesday. I'm really excited to move in and decorate my room. Some things I'm really looking forward to are turning 20(!), and spending lots of time with my friends.

So much activity is going on right now and lots of change but it's a little exciting. Here's a Polish proverb I found on Pinterest that I think is funny and a good way to end this post.
