Counting stars.

I'm just saying that tonight, I'm counting stars.

I am a lucky girl. 

I've posted this 'type' of post millions and millions of time.

But I cannot reiterate enough the blessings I have, and even {you} have received on this earth.

These people that I have met here in Idaho are some of the greatest people that I have ever come to know. What a blessing it is to know them, and have become their friend. They push me to do better with my life. They have shaped me into a different Annie. They do more then push me. They teach me when I don't know. They teach me when I ask. They are the definition of {friends}. 

I can't even express my gratitude to each soul that has touched my life. As cheesy as it is, they have each taken a part of my heart, in less then 2 months. Something I never thought would be possible, and honestly has never happened. But they did it. I like to believe that they achieve the impossible.  This semester is almost over...it went by so incredibly fast. I'm just now getting used to things, and believing that it was all so real. These adventures have come and I can't believe it. So many things I never thought would happen...have happened.  Of course.
The bitter sweet 23 days are going to come and go as well. But let them. Because I know that they will be busy, and fun. They won't lack in spontaneity, or excitement.
Winter 2012 in {review}::

 

The countless temple trips!

 

Bonfires with my best friend(s)? All the time.

We went to the beach...HUNTINGTON BEACH!

Washington with Bubba!

He taught me guitar...until he no longer could :)

How could I forget the endless longboarding runs and driving in Nikki Adele. 

I couldn't

Being the {BEST} fans ever to our favorite rec basketball team!

The Lamas 2012!!!

(Colin and Abbott not pictured...sorry...)

Even cheering on our soccer boys!

I've done a lot of everything. I've learned a lot, gained a lot. I've just discovered me, and what I want.

It's a semester to remember.

College really is the best years of one's life.

So I'll continue to count my stars. I'll continue to remember the lucky people I've met. The education I have received. The life that awaits me every day to be lived.

I'm an incredibly grateful and blessed girl. 

Could not be more grateful.

The ending to this semester will be so bitter sweet. For some it might be final goodbyes. Who knows where life will take us, and where we will end up. We are just lucky that life took us here for a semester. Everything is so unknown, mysterious.

I'm intrigued!
