Most semesters, I get to the halfway point and feel like it's going so slowly. This semester is different. I don't think I've ever had a semester go by so quickly. We just finished week 8, and there are only 7 weeks worth of classes left. It's been really busy - almost every weekend since the start of school, we've been doing something, frequently out of town. I'm taking extra classes this semester, and I'm still involved in a lot of church things. All this means that I wake up on Friday morning and I have no idea what happened to the week. I like it!
it's been a really fun semester over all. Some of the highlights so far: weddings, a beach trip with the college group, two awesome friends coming to visit, arts and crafts, the farmers market, an outdoor worship service, and pumpkin spice lattes. I love fall. The colors, the smells, and especially anything/everything pumpkin.

Bring on the next half! Next week is fall break, which means state fair and (hopefully) some camping. Once November rolls around, I'll be registering for classes for THE LAST TIME HALLELUJAH. It's the homestretch. Next thing I know, it'll be Thanksgiving and time for cramming and exams. As excited as I am for what's coming, I'm also just really enjoying my day to day. It's a good feeling.
