Ok...It's Official

I am the worst blogger ever. Oh well. I am going to make a note to myself to update this thing at least once a week. Promise. Hold me to it.

So, I did make it home for Christmas safe and sound, but it was the strangest feeling ever being there. I honestly woke up in the middle of the night a couple times freaking out because I didn't realize where I was. Also, I was definitely on Irish time for a while after I got there. I kept waking up at about 4 in the morning. It was crazy.

I really enjoyed my time there with friends and family, and got a lot accomplished. God willing, Erica and I have found where we will be living next year! Woo-hoo! We dyed Rachel's hair blue(part of it anyway ;)). I got to go back to my home church, and I got to see all of my family and friends.

Christmas was good and normal for us. Had Nana, Holly, and Kyle come over to the house, and then we went over to see some friends. It felt nice to see everyone and be home even if it was just for a little while.

The worst part was that I missed all of my new friends in Belfast! I still wish that I could have packed them all up and taken them with me. Also, coming back to Belfast meant Kenzie leaving to go home, which I was not at all happy about.

But, I have been back for about two weeks now, and am JUST starting to feel like myself again. Travelling forward in time more than once in six months I do not reccamend. Things are starting to get carzy with school and what not, and there are times when I am doing good to get a decent amount of sleep. But thankfully, I'm making it. Shannen is a huge help as are some other people in making sure that I keep my sanity about me.

It will be strange to turn 21 while I am here. I'm not really sure how I feel about not being home for my birthday, but I'm sure it will be fine.

All in all I am glad to be back, and I know that time is going to fly. I know my time here will be over before I know it, so my plan is to just relish every moment possible. Enjoy it while I can.
