So far keeping up has just been telling everyone that I want to keep up! Well, I guess I should let people know what I've been doing down here in San Antonio. Here are the basics:

       Coming to Trinity was the best decision for me. After being really homesick for the first week I got used to it. I was really blessed to develop a great group of friends from day one who are quickly becoming amazingly close friends. I also met Corey, who I've been dating for a year now. My social network is great and I love living on my hall this year. We're the LIving San Antonio community (LiSA) and I get to hang out with 40 of my friends and go do stuff in San Antonio. It's great fun and a wonderful place to live.

       When I left high school I wanted to be an English as a Second Language teacher for junior high. That plan was quickly scrapped for a jr. high history teacher. That plan was scrapped in the spring and I am now I declared psychology major. I hope to become a school psychologist. My plan is to eventually go back to D'Evelyn and fix that place!! We'll see if that ever happens. I have been taking alot of education classes as well and am working at a junior high.

      Last summer I worked at Camp Chief Ouray again. I became so disillusioned with the place. I guess it didn't help that two of my friends had to leave early and a person who I thought embodied everything camp shouldn't be won the Spirit of Camp award. But hey, I can't control the world. I think I will be in Denver this summer, maybe taking some classes, working or just going backpacking alot! I miss the outdoors!

      I still miss my family alot, but it's alot more managable this year. Michael is in Oxford studying theology and will graduate in the spring. I miss him tons and tons! But I know he is learning alot and enjoying Europe. Sam is as crazy as ever. I can't believe he's already looking at colleges! I miss him alot too. Mom and Dad's plan to buy a used monastery in New Mexico fell through. I hope they stay in Colorado. I want to be able to come home to the house I grew up in!

   Well I guess, that's a bit of an update. I'll try to be more personal later and maybe have some profound insight later!

Ok so I've tried not jumping on this web diary thing, but since all my friends and my schedules are so busy, this seems easiest to keep up with everyone. I miss everyone from home (CO) so much, but I can't believe all the support and love I have found in Texas. I wish I could do more to keep up with the people back home. It seems that I just don't have time anymore. But I'm going to try....
