Sorry I've been gone. It's been a pretty awesome week filled with awesomeness. It was also muchly needed. I feel so much more reenergized and ready to tackle school/life again. Seeing all the people and friends who love me and care was amazing, especially all the friends I've made in the last month. I'm not even physically here all the time, yet they all care about me so much and were willing to give up a night of homework to watch my favorite movie with me, even when that movie is We Bought A Zoo. It still surprises me how different the people here are. I was expecting me to be the only one who enjoyed the movie, and everyone else to tease me about it. But they all got into the movie as well and we were all almost crying when Matt Damon cries. See, since he's also Jason Bourne, its a very big deal when that man sheds tears. When Matt Damon cries, everybody cries.
The bestby spent the whole day with me which was amazing. He got to have a taste of dorm life, and see why I have trouble doing homework and sleeping at times. Oh well :) Him being there all day was the best present he could have ever given me. Of course my sweet boy wrote me the sweetest note and had beautiful flowers as well. Oh man. I never quite understood the power simple things like notes and flowers could have but they made my day. I love looking at them on my desk.
My mom was even able to see me which made everything even better. She drove down with flowers as well as my favorite candies. Even though I was only able to see her for a little bit it made the day special. She's my mom, my best friend, and also the woman who made my birthday possible.

The whole day was so busy and I was caught up in the moment, so this is the only picture I have from my birthday. But it didn't end there, oh no. I got to have an entire birthday week. On Wednesday, it smelt beautiful because of the rain, but not too much rain. I got to have burrito for lunch. Funny story. I was sitting on this bench with Sammy, eating our food when I thought it'd be fun to throw a hot sauce packet at the window. I entertained myself for a good five minutes bouncing sauce packets off this window.
Then I took a good look into the window. There was a conference going on on the other side and everyone was wearing business suits. Some of the people were staring at me throwing my hot sauce packet. Haven't laughed that hard in awhile.
Thursday I headed up for a doctor's appointment, but had some time in between so I visited my poor yearbook friends who are unfortunately trapped in high school still. It was so good seeing them again. I sat in a chair waiting for them to come in, and when they finally did, they stared at me for a moment and then started screaming. One friend even jumped up on me. She's lucky all this walking around towns made me stronger otherwise I might not have caught her haha!
Friday. Oh Friday. Kelsey came down and then we went to see Imagine Dragons. They were opening for AWOL Nation, but we were only there to see them. Imagine out disappointment when we realize they have to share some of their time with some sucky wanna be rap dupstep band. I don't even know what they were doing. Kelsey thought the drummer was cute though so we got a picture with them afterwards.
*The computer isn't letting me upload the pictures at the moment, so I will upload them tomorrow morning.*
And then Imagine Dragons came on. Completely and utterly mind blowingly amazing. I couldn't believe how good they were live. Their cd's don't do them justice. I was amazed at all of the bands abilities to play everything. They do everything themselves. Every little odd noise you may hear, the four of them do it. It wasn't some stand in musician. Absolutely amazing. And we got to meet him!!! We waited where the sucky band was meeting fans, and waited and waited, almost giving up hope. But then Kelsey saw him, standing over there with his hoodie on. He autographed my ticket and we got a picture with him. He was on vocal restrictions so he couldn't talk but it was still amazing. He was all smiles and so nice. AND HE DIDN'T SMELL LIKE ALCOHOL!!!!!!!
It was a concert to remember. But with the t shirt and the ticket, I won't be going to any other concerts for awhile. Plus, the screaming was so loud it made me dizzy. That's got to be really loud. And all the drunk 40 year old ladies dancing like teenagers was a bit disturbing. It was really cute when this boy came up to Kelsey and asked her what her name was. They had an awkward conversation until he asked her age. When he realized she was an adult and he was 15, he said I'm gonna go now. Totally cracked me up.
My birthday week ended with spending a day with my mom, mexican food, and birthday cake. Sadly, I still can't blow out all the candles. I'm so thankful for all the people who love me and care about me and made this past week utterly amazing and unforgettable.
