A New School Year

Exactly three years ago I was a young freshman moving into a tiny dorm room. Three of us crammed into a two person room. Fun times. I had no idea what the year would be like or what my future would hold. No clue what I would study or who my friends would be. Now I am a senior. I have some awesome new friends and I have my own room in a big house. I know what I'm studying...I think. Yet, I have no idea where I'll be in a year. That's exciting to me.

Holly and I were talking about how much has changed since those first few weeks of school. Especially for her. Since the begining of fall quarter in 2002, her dad died, she moved to UCU and made many new friends inculding Zac who she is now married to, and now she is pregnant! Who knew? She had no idea all that would happen. Life is strange.

Holly is crazy because she thinks she is going to go to school all this year and have a baby. I hope she has twins. Not because I want her life to be harder, just cause it would be so cute. Two little Gleasons. I can picture it now.
