Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in an eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand - and melting like a snowflake.

On the plane I sat next to a very nice former police officer from Maui named Chuck. If I ever go to Maui, I'm supposed to go to customs in the afternoons Monday-Friday and say "Hi". He knew what an aria was when I said my name. I was impressed.
I did not sleep very well on the flight.
The flight left 20 minuets late, so before I turned off my phone I told Matt he should probably get there closer to 6am instead of 5:30am. Well, the plane made up the time and then some and landed at 5 am. I took my time. I journal-ed and read my Relief Society Manual and ate the grapes and veggies my mom sent with me. Seth and Matt arrived around 6:15 and I was so happy to see them. I slept a little in the car ride back, but not very much. The boys took me home and I unpacked their bread machine and gave it to them. We all agreed to go take a nap and we'd figure out something to do later- try to think of a hike that they didn't already do over the week.
I laid in bed for an hour trying to sleep....and then I gave up and cleaned my room, added pictures, posed my old textbooks to sell....
I decided to pay my neighbors a visit and force them (in a loving manner) into action.
We went to the beach. I swam, they slept.
Leena inherited a bunch of food, so we decided to have a bbq. This seems to be a common theme. I have one in my backyard- not anymore because it's in their backyard but you get the idea.
I drove Chris's car to campus and practiced the oboe. (I'm getting better at driving stick....I still have a ways to go. I keep dying at stop signs. It's rather comical) After about and hour they called and asked if I had lighter fluid, so I took all my reed making tools and came back so see- I did. "You have everything." It certainly seems that way.
My lamp broke and I still needed to make a reed, so I asked if I could borrow one and ended up making it in their backyard with a captive audience. For the record, there are things that I cannot do, I just don't do any of them very often. ;)

Judging by how we normally eat, you would never guess that we college students actually know how to make a dang good meal.
We do. This is proof.
Some of us (most of the girls + Seth) decided to sneak into Turtle Bay Resort and use their hot-tubs. I'm not the biggest fan of hot-tubs, but I'm glad I went. Lex and Whit encroached on the territory of some other group that was in the hot-tub. Lacey and I had a handstand contest.
When our bodies were sufficiently overheated we left. It was toocold windy to go sit in the hammocks. Another time.
We came back at 8:30 super wet and quite relaxed. We decided to watch a movie at the boys' house. I've been trying to get these people to do a massage train for months and I was *almost* successful this time. It will happen soon. I can feel it.
