Summer!

Here it is July 5th and I just got internet in my apartment hence why I probably haven't written in a long while. May was an interesting month as I lived in 4 different places for that month. I was fortunate to move in May 31st.

Move in was interesting since my roommate and I got to rent a UHaul (I got to drive hehe). Why you may ask did us 2 girls rent a UHaul? Oh because we have a lot of stuff aparently including an assortment of furniture that I managed to collect with all my other friends moving. I was lucky to get a bunk bed set (it breaks into 2 separate twin beds yay!) and 2 dressers and my friend gave me his television to hold onto for the summer. My roommate, Melissa, (the other one is chilling in Buffalo, New York for the summer) had a couch (yay), a tv, a dining table, some chairs, a dresser, a desk, some end tables, a bookshelf and some other furniture. So we are fortunate to have a decently furnished apartment.

I flew back to Idaho for 3 weeks starting June 2nd and flew back to Rhode Island June 23rd. It was great to be in Idaho to see family and friends. I also was lucky to see my 2 friends graduate from high school. In week 2, my parents and I made a road trip down to Salt Lake city for a foodshow and then we drove up through eastern Idaho to Jackson Hole. We also decided to go to Yellowstone. It was great and it was a great time for me to hang with my parents. I enjoyed it a lot. In the last week of my time in Idaho, my brother flew home and I enjoyed seeing him again.

My time back in Rhode Island has been somewhat eventful. I've been busy searching for a job and have had an interview. I'm praying to have patience in seeking God's plan for what job He wants me to have. I've been making new friends as well and that has been fun. I have been going to church on Sundays as well as a Thursday night Bible study with a group of people from various churches in the area.

Here are some random interesting moments:
~Carrying a 6' by 9' rug home 1/4 a mile (while crossing a street people made sure to stop hehe)
~Getting stuck on a broken down bus for a 1/2 hour until the replacement came while being in the middle of 2 people in a fight (that was interesting!)
~Going to Newport and having fun playing in the waves

I am going to California this week (leaving Weds flying back Sunday night) to see my cousin get married. So I am really excited about that and also hope to see family while I'm down there.

Hope all is well for everyone! :D
