Wow, has it really been half a year?

I was talking to my mom the other day and she pointed out that I have been here for 6 months now. I couldn't believe it. In some ways it feels like I've been here for much longer, but in others it feels like our journey here just began. Things are better than I thought they would be. I've made friends, and I believe the time will pass faster than I expected it to also. And maybe I'll be wishing I wasn't packing things back up and moving to Utah... MAYBE. :0)
