goodbye, colorado.

tonight is my last night as a colorado resident. the lights in the house are off, and i'm still up thinking about this new life i'm about to start. it's so funny how you really can't blink, or you're gonna miss it. i feel like high school was yesterday, or writing my parents a letter of why they should let me go on a road-trip to utah when i was sixteen. so amazing how fast life is. i don't wanna miss it.

i'm feeling pretty nervous. i said goodbye to two of my best friends allison and maddie tonight. they were so sweet to just come hang out and be lazy with me. the reason it's so hard to leave colorado is because of the people. i have a great family and wonderful friends, and i'm leaving them. i'm so thankful that utah is only a state away, so then road trips will be in order. :)

i should be sleeping, because i'm driving for 8 hours and i know i'll get sleepy in the ride. i'll be praying that caffeine will really kick in, and adrenaline too.

i can't believe zach and i are starting this new journey in our relationship too. i'm excited to see what we learn from each other and how we adapt as a couple, even. it'll be nice being able to do normal things together, like watching tv and going to church and cooking dinner together. i'm so excited for the simple things. and for the spontaneous road trips i will force him to take, back to colorado.

it's so hard when your heart is in two places. wish i could live in both places so bad, but i can't. who ever thought that i'd be sad to leave this place, when i have been talking about moving for sooo long?

mostly i am nervous about finding a good job. God really is going to stretch and test my faith, and i really want to prove faithful, i want to trust my Savior for providing for me. i want to be exactly where he plans for me to be. it'll all work out, i just have to be patient and trusting. my God is my Rock. i'm really excited for a fresh start, and getting into good habits right when i move. it's convenient that the new year is starting, so i can make out some work-out resolutions as well. this christmas i ate...A LOT.

well. i guess i'll go to bed now. so long, for now...
