Oh wait, mommy doesn't wake me up for school anymore. College, that's right. My second year. Kinda crazy, huh? I think so too. I think it sounds weird coming out of my own mouth saying that I'm in college. Wasn't it just yesterday that I was about to puke with the nervousness of pulling into Sunnyslope High School for my first day of freshman year? Nope, five years ago. Holy smokes! Oh well, gotta keep movin' on up the ladder.
Now, I'm not a huge fan of school, but maybe that's just 'cause I'm not doing what I'm eventually going to be doing yet. Still getting all those annoying prerequisites out of my hair. I wish I could fast forward. But for some reason, I got all excited for school the other day when I went shopping for a few school supplies. Funny how just a couple spiral notebooks, new pretty pens and pencils, and a cute planner kinda put me in a funk about school: what's this, now I'm looking forward to go back to school tomorrow, consisting of Microbiology, Developmental Psychology, and Philosophy of Religion. Hmm...I think I'm running a fever.

The Whole Fam-Damily
Alright, okay, I know I have been neglecting my blog lately, therefore this post about my vacation in July is kinda, very, a month late. But hey, at least I'm publishing it and getting back into the swing of things with my blog.
Here goes...
There is something about the smell of the salty, chill breeze, (and the opportunity for a desert rat like me to be a beach bum dressed in shorts and a hoodie for a week), that just makes ya wanna kiss the ground. No really, I wouldn't mind kissing the Earth as long as I'm anywhere in Oregon. Anywhere but dry, crusty old Arizona. This year, our Becker Family Reunion was in Gold Beach, Oregon, and it could not have been more perfect. Being constantly surrounded by my favorite people and the beautiful scenery of the state makes my life more complete than it's ever been. Since family is the most important thing in my life, it was kind of impossible for me to be caught in a dull moment for that whole week at the beach. I'm not going to go into details about the whole vacation, there would just be way too much to talk about. More than I can even think about in this moment. But I will say, long story short, that it was the greatest feeling in the world to bond with my extended family members, have fun without a care in the world, and laugh continuously with my hilarious, amazing, crazy, beautiful family. If only every week could be like that. Sigh. Love ya'll! <3
