So I was planning on spending the summer living at home, going on vacations and day trips to the beach, and generally enjoying the splendor of life in Sunny California. Not anymore. :(
I am going back up to school to work for the summer, and hopefully earn some money for my mission. I am disappointed, but also excited! Summer up there is a blast and I know it will be wonderful!
Things I will miss about California:
Mom, Dad, Stacy, Lisa and Mat!
The Beach
The Pool
The Cinema Room
Catching up with old high school friends that are here for the summer
My awesome and comfortable bedroom
The vacations - Newport, San Diego, and Utah (ok, I won't miss the Utah one.)
The family ward
Free room and board
The Tour de France in the Cinema Room
Things I love about Utah:
Rebecca, Bart, Addison, and Hannah!
The canyon trail, for all my rollerblading/biking/running pleasure
Mountain Biking
The bike expo in Lambert Park
My job - I really do like it
Making money
Meeting new people
Ruth, Brianon, Heather, Melissa, Kadi, etc.
The dollar theater
Campus events
Planning my own meals - I love that!
Overall, I think Utah will be a great experience. I am working the same job that I had last summer. It is a fixed 40 hour a week, so the second I get home, I am free! I am also excited because I do not begin work until 10:00am, so I can still watch most of the Tour de France in the mornings during July. The Tour is the best part of summer! Utah, here I come!

i feel your pain about missing home, but i'm so excited for you to come out here!!!!
i'm still working on finding out how much rent would be. a freshman actually just moved in to my room, but the private room is still up for grabs. i pay 220/month (which is ridiculous), so it would prob be a bit more than that. i understand if that's too much, mostly i'm just trembling with excitement to see you again!
also... david harker is home. weird.
hooray! Sorry you will be missing your time at home in California but I am so excited for you to come to Utah! We should party with the person whose picture is above my post.... :)
