Milestones

Both yesterday and today I have been filled with so much emotion. Which yes I will admit, it normal I am kind of a baby about things but this past little while it has really hit me that as much as I am just so done with school, once this year comes to a close everything changes. Garrett, Mitch and Jeff all leave on their missions and as proud as I am of them & I know that they will all do exceptionally well the selfish part in me wants them to stay and play around at USU with me. Kyle is staying in Logan for the summer, living in his fave place, Oakridge and getting surgery on his shoulder, he'll have a blast with that! The ladies love Kyle! As for the girls, we'll all go away for summer and come back with a billion stories to tell as we all live together in the Fall. Skylar with her job in Provo living with Lexis (her cousin) and making $$$. Mikayla with moving home to spend the summer with her family, playing with her puppy and shopping, a lot ;). And me, Tanisha bouncing around between Arizona (my home)living the life from two of my best friends getting married & three of my best guy friends back home leaving on their missions all the way to playing with my niece and nephew and Utah, for my job at Retreat for Girls (yes, I still smile when I think about it).


It's really crazy to think that we all started this year not knowing each other at all and now it feels like we've known each other forever. We'll always have the "Remember whens" and the "We used to do this all the time..." It's silly for me to say but I am so happy that I lived in GHETTO San Juan so I was able to meet these amazing people. I can honestly say that as I close my Freshman year of college that I rocked it. At times it was hard I will admit but honestly I looking back I had some of the best times and they all consisted of these six people. From the movie nights, to crazy dance parties, to the spontaneous trips to random places,to the Sunday dinners that turned into endless hours of chatting,to fort building,to General Conference,to sledding Old Main Hill after a crazy snow storm, to the nights where we never went to bed because we were just having to much fun. We really did it all. This year has been one for the books and one that I will look back on and smile while thinking, " I actually did all that stuff.." && When we all reunite 2 years from now I can honestly say it will be a time of joyous celebration and many many many stories to catch up on.
