Although our weekend was so much fun, we all know that all good things must come to an end. Bek, Amy, and I had to leave our friend Rachel after being with her in Auburn this weekend. She was so sweet and good to us while we were there. She is a picture of a perfect hostess.

I am back to another busy week. Tomorrow will be my busiest day...want to hear my schedule?

8 et ready for class (have to dress up)

5:30 meeting
6 dinner with the chapter

8-8:45 LOVE
8:45-9:15 meeting

As of right now, that is my schedule. However, I know that it can quickly change.

One of my best friends, Amy, is getting married this summer. I am so happy for her, but I think the full reality hit me today on our way back home. We were talking about fun trips that we want to take while we are still in college, and I know that she won't be with us next year. It is a bittersweet time in our lives. While growing up, we talked and talked about who we all thought we would end up marrying. It is so neat to see God fulfill His promise, and for us to see who Amy is ending up with. Although her dreams of coming true are here, the dreams of friends are coming to an end. I never once thought I would be losing a friend when she got married. Although we will still be friends, our friendship with each other will never be the same. She won't be living with us and be a part of our everyday lives. She won't go on roadtrips with us, and still laugh at goofy movies. No more nights of brownie mix, rotel and Pride and Prejudice. No more late night chats at 2 am before we go to bed. No more pouring ice water on each other while in the shower..haha. An era of our lives is coming to an end, and I hope that I have enough strength to deal with it. My life is much happier when I am with my friends. Each of them brings something different and special to my life. I never really imagined my life without one of them. Now she won't only be not living with me, she will be living with a BOY! Crazy! I cannot wait to see what God has in store for her life. Our friendship will always be intact, but I know that it will change. Even though I am sad that this stage of our life is over, I can't wait to see what else happens.

  1. working out?i'm impressed. how fun- k5! you are so good with that age. ok i love knowing exactly what your schedule is. really i do. it keeps me feeling connected. and about amy- i know exactly how you feel. it will be different, this is true. and there will be hard times. its going to a big transition. but kristin- we will do it. we will. we have been through too much together for too long for us to lose it now! yes its sad, but we will cry together. yes its going to be a struggle, but we will struggle together. i will hold your arms up when you get tired, and you will do the same. and we will continue to love married amy as we loved single amy. i'm not denying it will have it rough points- we have quite a learning curve ahead of us. but girl! we are going to enter this next phase in our lives with bang. bring it on. because united we stand! lol love you:)
