I am so completely excited to be heading out to BYU in 23 days. Sure, there's anxiety about my plane crashing, my roommate detesting the very essence of my being (or Lord of the Rings), the government deciding I don't need any money, etc. etc., but the excitement seems to be winning in the duel with anxiety.
I have also been starting to realize how much I actually love where I have lived these past seventeen (almost eighteen) years of my life. This little zip code of mine that I have never lived away from for a substantial period of time has always been one I've found fault with, but as of late, those faults have somehow become endearing. The dreaded heatwaves that the sun usually inflicts upon my part of the world this time of year has actually held off and given me my favorite sort of weather that a real Spring season is supposed to have. My little Florida world has actually been on its best behavior these past couple of months and there will definitely be tears when I have to say goodbye to it.
Tomorrow is my last day of high school. My last day of senior year. My last day before my life can actually begin. I'm not going to burst into a song from Tangled or anything, it's just completely baffling and utterly incredible that my compulsory education is ending and I am now able to really explore what I want out of my future. I really don't feel like this era of my life is ending, but HOLY CRAP, it is. There's so much I want to express here, but there are really no words. I can't even come up with some clever way to end this!
This life has been a beautiful picture thus far, and I am so excited and ready for what my Heavenly Father has planned for me next.
