Here...

Hi! Today was a wonderfully simple day. Woke up at 9:30, fell back asleep, and slept in until 11. Got up and made french toast for Oshiebird, then cleaned and made chocolate chip cookies, because Mamabird has been begging me to make them for the past few days. I'd enjoy no peace otherwise! It's official, I'm famous up in Georgia for my cookie-making now. Working on my schoolwork continuously. All full from dinner, happy and in comfy pants. Life is lovely.

I'm looking forward to VSO - I do every year. I had a hard time deciding if I wanted to go this year. $550 is a lot of money. But it's honestly worth it - I've met the most amazing people there, and have the most amazing times. Those memories I'll carry with me always. Also, how can I forget? It's where I first met Joshua - that in itself makes it more worth it than anything. It's nice to get away from life for a while, even if it's just for a week each year. That week is heaven to me. Wonderful friends, good food, great times, funny quotes, exciting challenges. Hiking through the Appalachians, campfires, the annual reading of the camp quotes, which I, as the camp scribe, dutifully take down. Canoe wars, cliff diving, I'm a Little Piece of Tin, excessive daddy longlegs (wait, I don't miss that!) wall signing, pride rock, and the only time of year when we can get away with calling Mr. Phillips "Mufasa".

Goodess! I can't wait.

Anyways, I'll leave you for now - til later.
