I move back to Eugene in 6 days, but who's keeping track?! Oh I wish I could explain how excited I am. The feeling I get just thinking about actually having some money in my pocket, friends down the road, and family close by is unlike anything I've felt in a long time. Perhaps that's due to my lack of feeling much of anything lately - but still great nonetheless. It's about time I can get out of that apartment and into the city that I love. "The World's Greatest City of the Art's and Outdoors" is the town's motto, and that about hits in right on the head. The bike trails, rivers, buttes, Birkenstocks, tree-huggers....oh I miss it all so much. I never appreciated it's true beauty until I left, but I love it now more than ever (possibly due to the little grains of hippiness my mom unconsciously installs in me).
One of my favorite places in Eugene"Alton Baker Park"
It has brought me many memories as well as scars!
Another 6 days after that, 12 from today, is my twenty first birthday! Being 21 entails so many things for me. Having my best friends be my 25-year old sister and my 21-year old boyfriend makes it even more exciting. This means I am no longer forbidden from doing anything (well other than renting a car, but who cares about that anyways!?) I have been busy enough to restrain from counting down the days which means it's coming quicker than I thought! I have never been happier to be a St. Patrick's Day baby until this year. Should be interesting!

I'm Coming Home :)
I like to refer to myself as slightly "earthy" if you don't mind...ha ha!! This blogging sounds like fun, its a nice way to keep a journal and inform others of what's going on in your head! Keep it up...
