Graduating? IN APRIL?????

Well, there is a lot I should let you all know about... I know I missed last week, but that's because I felt like I needed a week to digest what was happening. Two Sundays ago Tanner and I had a long talk, and we both felt we needed to date other people for a while. That doesn't mean we won't go on occasional dates or never speak to each other again... in fact, these past 2 weeks we've still talked quite a bit and spent some time together.

Let's see, what else has been happening in my life? Well, I had a waltz test this week and it went really well and we started learning the Tango which I'm very excited about. Friday Rachel and I saw one of the art exhibits in the MOA together, then went to the FLSR to make some broccoli soup and talk. It did me a world of good... I'm going to miss her so much while she's serving her mission in Portugal, but I'm sooooo excited for her! If we both go on missions, it will be two whole years of not seeing each other :-(!!!

I'm starting to get some ideas for my honors thesis project and getting ready to apply for another scholarship for study abroad this summer. There are so many things I should start doing that I just haven't gotten around to yet, like doing some background research on Germania by Tacitus which I'm going to write a 10 pg research paper on, or reading for HEPE (a health class online)... it'll probably be Thanksgiving break before I get around to that.

Dance sport is coming up next weekend, so I'll be practicing for that, plus I have an Hon 201 Civilization test again (very time consuming preparation). College life is so busy, but good. I've registered for classes and it looks like I will be graduating next April with a Bachelors degree in German Literature. At that point I will be 21, and I will go on a mission unless I get married before then, in which case I will start my PHD. It's pretty scary. I feel like I just started college, and now it's halfway over!

It's time for church, so I have to go...

Hope you are all doing well!

Love and miss you,

Margaret
