my friend the sun.

sun. mister golden sun. he is coming back to me! these last couple of months the schizophrenic skies have been driving me crazy. wake up in the morning to a beautiful day but don't let it fool you, for but hours later it will be snowing!! ug. please, throw an arizona girl a bone. this being my very first winter semester away from arizona it has been rough to say the least. now, it's not that i don't enjoy the snow! i find it beautiful with is glimmering of light and pure nature. but thats basically where it ends. the issue with me and snow is that well, i am an arizona girl; i don't know what to do with it! you can only kick around and make so many snow angels before your bum goes numb and your hair is soaking wet. so you can imagine my absolute joy as i came out of my 4-5:30 bio lecture to find the sun still in the sky! this hasn't happened for..i can't even remember how long ago. i'm not sure i've seen the sun at all after this class the entire semester to be honest. it was the most blissful moment of the week. a little piece of heaven saved an extra half hour for me to behold. since then, this was monday, i have experienced this once more and it had the same effect on me. it works out quiet nicely, monday and wednesdays are my longest more grueling days. so, having this little bit of literal sunshine is exactly what i need. i realize i have not written a blog lately and feel terrible about it. i vow to be better and not let the excuse of "my life is just not that great right now" get in the way of me not finding something to be grateful for. because, lets face it, my life is beautiful and even on the poopiest days (yes, i just said poopiest) i have so much to be grateful for. as i end this post i just want to reminisce a bit of the glory days. back when i had a summer and the sun was my friend. how exceedingly excited i am to have the opportunity to bask in the arizona sun soon. it will be my first summer break since the summer before 8th grade. though i will technically be back in provo for summer term for school i will live up the spring term in the wonderful states of washington, arizona and california where the sun will be my very best friend. one last thing. BRING ON THE SUN. because i am blessed.

p.s. this picture is via my blackberry pearl more than one year ago. i was in lehi and couldn't help myself. oh arizona sunsets, i am coming for you!
