BEDA 3: Postcard Projects and a German!

Okay, so it's only seven hours into the 3rd, but I'm writing my blog post now because I expect the rest of my day to be pretty busy, especially during the night when I typically do my blogging. Plus, I've been reading a bunch of blogs from yesterday, and it's made me wanna write something of my own.

I'm gonna start off by talking about this idea that I've had for a long time. For about a year, I've thought it would be REALLY cool if I could collect postcards from my friends all around the states, and ultimately, the world. My plan is to use them to decorate my dorm, amongst tons of other things I'm gonna be putting up on my walls as well. My point is, I would LOVE to get postcards from you guys, as I've had severe wanderlust for a few years now, and I rea
lly would enjoy having pieces of the world right there in my dorm. If you want my address for these postcards, you can email me at katie.twyman19@gmail.com and I'll give you my address. I'm gonna say it again - I really don't care where the postcard is from. I wanna see it!

Moving on. I'm gonna talk about why today is so exciting and awesome. See, I have this friend named Luisa. And she's from Bavaria. She lived with my aunt and uncle as a foreign exchange student our junior year, and it just so happened that I had three classes with her fall semester. Needless to say
, we got really close really fast, and she was one of my very best friends in absolutely no time. My other best friends, Mallery and Rodessa, got super close to her too, and we were pretty much a power team. It was great.

Well, she's flying in to spend a month in Minnesota today, and I'm picking her up at the airport at three thirty with Dessa and Mallery! I can't wait to hug her and snug
gle her and make fun of her for her funny grammatical mistakes. But after she gets here, we're going to this house that Rodessa is watching. I think a bunch of other people who wanna see her are heading over to hang out with us for a long time, and after that, the three of us are just gonna spend the night there.

The house has a bonfire pit, and the entire night is gonna be so much fun that I can hardly contain myself. More than anything, I'm REALLY excited to see Luisa again. No matter how much time you've spent with someone, it's always hard to go from IRL to URL, and I'm pumped to be back in IRL territory for a while. I feel like there's so much I'm missing, and there's SO much catching up to do. It's driving me crazy.

It'll all be better soon though! I can't waaaait.

Exchange students are SO COOL! My friend housed a girl from Finland named Jenni and we became good friends and we through our grad party together. We're still friends but don't talk much and all her Facebook updates are in Finnish. xD

Sounds like you're going to have a fun night! And I want to send you a postcard!!
