for friends...

Well it has been quite the amazing sabbath. Remarkable even. (That is my new favorite word, remarkable) Anyway, I've seen several friends that have just barely got back from their missions. The first I had to literally do a triple take before I recognized him! It was at the Plain city singles ward with my sister. Anyway, after I was sure it was him, we talked for a good while but we still gots some catching up to do! And then at the weber state concerto concert tonight that my sister was in, I saw my good clarinet pal casey wood from high school weber district! Talk about blast from the blast! he just got back two weeks ago. It's funny, as I'm leaving everyone seems to be coming back. But they all say it's the best thing I'll ever do and I completely believe them!
After the concert I was able to talk to my bestest friend JessiKa. Oh how i miss her! I don't know what I'll do without her around to call anytime and leave a message. She is my soul sister, a true kindred spirit as anne with an e would say. I was also blessed to be able to catch up with nicole and brad and katie and a few others. They are just a funny group of people, and I miss being around them. I'm excited for the trip to the cabin in may to spend even more time laughing and talking.
I also said goodbye to my friend Camie who leaves for the MTC on wednesday and planned an all nighter with Jessica so we can talk and catch up before I leave.
Today is the kind of the day that I remember I am surrounded by people who I love and who love me. I have been so blessed with amazing friends, as well as a wonderful family of adorable sisters and wonderful parents who support me. I haven't had to deal with a lot of hurt or struggles in this life and i forget how easy I have it sometimes. Thank to all those who stick by me, even through my mistakes!
I should probably get to bed. I have to get up in six hours! School is almost over, just giving that last push for that 4.0! (crossing my fingers!)
