Clocks

It's funny how clocks seem to run in the oddest ways. Sometimes it feels like they've stopped and will never continue on, leaving you stuck where you are for years and years. Then, you turn away for just a moment, and they spin out of control so that when you turn back, it's all over.

That's how my second semester of college felt. Looking back, it's astounding how much I accomplished. This semester included...












The hardest musical I've ever been a part of. West Side Story (we choreographed the entire thing in under a week. Yeah. Ouch)


(sadly, this is the only picture I have of me from A Bad Year for Tomatoes. Good picture, huh?)

My first full out teching experience (can I tell you how cool I feel on headset?)








A trip to California with some friends (Disneyland. Need I say more?)





And the most random and fun things you could ever imagine (Super Hero Stomp, Masqurade Ball, Guy's Night Out, Eccentric Dress Mondays, Freedom from Footwear Fridays, Everybody Switch Pants Day, etc.)







But, by far, the best part of this semester was the hilarious people I'm friends with. Every night we spent together was full of stuff that just wouldn't work in other groups of people. And I loved every minute. It breaks my heart to think of all the people who are leaving Snow College behind.





Some are graduating...



And some are off to serve the Lord.











But I know I'll have a great time with those who are staying next year.



But while the clocks speed ahead and take away the friends that I love, I know that new ones are waiting just around the corner and can't come until the clocks have hit a certain point. So, I guess I can let them march forward however they wish for now.

You're making me miss my college days! You're seriously having some of the best times in your life right now (not all of them, but some of them!). I'm SO happy that you've found such a great group of people to hang out with. Live it up! 'Cause it definitely doesn't last forever!
